Must be. My truck wasnt in the city though. But ive seen 2 others with the tow mirrors. I dont flip mine up though..i should for the ghost trailer though haha.

 

I don't see a reason... I have a hard time missing trees with my mirrors...

If they turned into like.. rocket launchers I'd be game.

 

Hey guys.Paul from "next door"…..Newfoundland here.Just picked up a 2003 Prerunner.

 

That's awesome! Congratulations on your new-to-you truck!

 

Thanks. I like to think I bought 1/2 a new truck…..it just had a new chassis installed from the local dealer….LOL.

I've been away from Toyota for about 10 years (with a Land Rover) however I've had one pickup before and a few old Land Cruiser's.

 

Well welcome back!! It's always nice to find one with a fresh frame.

 

I wish I had an old LC

 

I wish i had a truck that didnt require me to spend a fucking shit tonne of money on it every other week.

Shes got a nice misfire going that almost got me killed on the highway.

 

When was the last time you changed your plugs?

Do the 1GR's have 3 coils and 3 wires like the older v6 engines? or are they all coil over plug?

Is it throwing codes or is it just huccuping?

Hopefully it's throwing codes. That makes diagnoses SOOOO much easier.

 

Yeah got a code for valve 2. I may have been lazy and not changed the plugs....theyve been sitting in my truck for about 6 months now....

 

You got P0302?

 

Take your pick on what codes ya want hahaha.

 

I would start by replacing your plugs. Check them out, they're probably corroded. The ground electrode is probably all shrivled up and dying, the gap is probably off too. Replace them, clear the codes and if it comes back as P0302, start changing coils around. Make sure you keep track of where they're going though.

Number them 1 through 6 (as per cylinder) and then move 1>2, 2>3, 3>4, 4>5, 5>6, 6>1. If you then get p0303, you're looking at a coil. Replace coil, problem solved.

 

Shes going into the shop tomorrow morning, im not in the mood to deal with it. The plugs have ~225xxx on them...

 

Okay.................................................................................................................... Gonna say its time to change them.

 

Mine have less than 40k on them and I'm going to swap them out soon.

 

Just placed my order for the switch panel and a couple switches! Can't wait to get started on this!

 

I've grown to love wiring projects like this. What's the eta?

 

Not sure. I ordered them around midnight. I'm sure I'll get a shipped email today at some point and then I'll be able to get to work hacking up the console getting high on fiber glass.

6 months to a year I'm thinking.

 

Nice you order them from that remote temple in Indonesia?
