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

$2.89 here

 

I have a 2 inch add a leaf I think, what would be my best choice? Trying to smooth out the ride the best I can

 

damn right. I took the "gas light" indicator out this weekend. fill'er up

 

I signed up to have to get 91 octane everytime. I should check my mpg just for shits to see what all my engine mods have done. Not sure if the trip odo would read good with 35s. Would be cool to see what the turbo and all has done. Anyone know if the odo would still read accurate enough?

 

$2.3x here, also holy name change

 

Good looking truck

 

That's at least not in the problem zone anymore, still should be closer to 0. My LTFT hovers around 1.66 and -0.37 and STFT bounces around from 3.00 to -4.50 depending on acceleration.

 

You removed your low fuel warning light?

 

Sweet! What ended up solving the issue?

 

Nicely diagnosed! Always nice to see someone do the legwork to find out the real issue rather than throw parts at it and see what happens

 

My friends found out that your wallet gets lighter in a hurry that way, that's usually when I get asked to lend a hand. Had a similar issue with a Jeep that had a Mopar 360 engine. It's plenum had two gaskets and the bottom one was allowing oil and pirate air into the intake. That engine pinged like no ones business for three years, friend finally got tired of throwing parts it didn't need at it when the oil rich exhaust nuked the cat. That was the last straw and in I came in. That was a tricky one really but the final tipoff that it was intake related was that the engine had zero blowby (unheard of for a Chrysler product), because all the crankcase flow was being sucked in the plenum leak... I really like diagnostics, I just wish I could invent a way to diagnose better through the internet, a lot of it is knowing what to be on the lookout for and to actually have tactile feedback.

 

Yes sir....i never let it go below half tank.

 

Why'd you take it out? Weight reduction?

jk

 

I think one of my rear shock boots is filled with ice, shoulda cut it off I know.

Is there a liquid or a gas inside of billy shocks?

 

They are gas and oil. So..i guess both.

Not where the boot is though.

 

I was thinking maybe my shock exploded and just froze as it came out, it's cold asf. I'm sure it's just water. Cut the boots off when I get the chance.

 

Lmao...you found my secret


Also did the blinker fluid delete

 

Still confused as to why you would disable it....

 

It actually would flicker...it bugged the fuck out of me...only when it was below half tank

 

Retrofits!
