What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

No I know it is yours haha I'm just saying those things fall off all the time on our trucks I've ran over like 3 of mine already

 

Had '03 TRD Alloy wheels installed Sunday- Looks a lot nicer than stock steelies!

 

Who is the local 3rz fe guru?

 

Pretty much everyone...... What's your question?

 

Are the injectors the same from 95-00 and 2001-2004? When I google the part numbers, I find info that says the part numbers are interchangeable, but they only show them for the 95-00 3rz fe.

I think I need a new injector, and I am probably going to just replace them all when I'm in there, but I want to make sure I get the right part the first time.

Hahahaha! That's a much crazier story than mine.

 

I cleaned it! This is a rare occasions so ALOT of pictures will be took in next couple days ahah. And yes the mirrors are off.

 

No the 01-04 injectors are pink top and flow more, the old ones are brown top. They should be electrically compatible and plug n' play but YMMV. Pretty sure @MadTaco461 has switched to pink from brown (lol gross ). It is sort of a common swap for the turbo guys to avoid going lean.

 

pardon my French?

 

Your mesults may very

 

"Your mileage may vary", also I added more to my post.

 

So, I need the pink top injectors. Right?

 

Yes, those should match what you currently have. I'd just go and see what color your are to be sure. But I'm 99% sure they'll be pink. Also you could send them to a place like WitchHunter Performance in Washington to be professionally cleaned and flow matched. They are super intensive and have a quick turnaround.

YES, they are not interchangeable with 96-00

 

Can go brown to pink but not pink to brown, if that makes any sense.

 

Well, this ole girl is weak enough, so I don't want to restrict the fuel its already getting any more. I'll stick with pink. (lol)

I think I have a dead coil in it. It is an intermittent issue. So I don't think that its a "dirty" injector. It is sticking, and killing the cylinder. (I think)

Witchhunters just cleans them, as far as I can tell. Right?

 

If it is a shorted coil there is nothing they can do, you'll need a new injector. But its nice if you can get all the injectors to flow similarly. I'd consider getting a set of used pink tops and having them set to WitchHunter before installing them. They'll basically be like new when you install them that way. Used injectors sketch me otherwise cause who knows if they are leaking or spray pattern is gonna cause a hot spot that melts the piston head.

 

I will buy new. If I can find them. If not, I will send them to Witchhunter. Thanks for the link.
