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

You should go pick that solid back window out for me xD I'll stop by and pick it up

 

works good for me!

 

I used dry lube since a lot of dust can get in our door panels

 

Your sig just wasted 10 minutes of my life. Oh, my!

 

What'd you have to look it up?

 

Watched the loop in his sig over, and over, and over, and...

 

Now there's 5 guys watching the same thing over and over and...

 

Not too sure how I feel about it yet

 

Maybe paint the flat part to match truck?

 

Flat beds are always..odd on 1st gen i think. The cabs are so curvy and the flat bed are..well not.

But that isn't a bad one. One of the better looking ones i've seen.

 

The possibilities are endless... I Like it

 

Not what i did today but what mother nature did lastnight. Hail storm rolled through and bug deflector took a sacrifice to save the hood from a dent. All ended up ok as was able to get in garage before storm got worse. Thanks texas weather

 

Installed 7" LED Light bars where blinkers usually go

 

Today I'm continuing my CEL quest: P0302

This P0302 code is getting potentially more expensive as it goes... Did plugs and wires as they were due anyway. P0302 remained. Swapped the coil packs from #5(#2) and #3(#6). Code remains P0302... Was hoping it would follow the pack. Doesn't feel like a hard misfire or dead plug. Idle is smooth and steady, no shakes or vibrations. Plug in #2 looks just as new as when it went in. What's next? Valve cover gasket? injector? Only have 400 miles on the engine and this started after about the 350 mile point. New gaskets and sensors when engine was swapped. Any tips or advice appreciated.

 

Did you unplug the battery to erase the code when you did the plugs?

 

Yup. Each time. Have the ultraguage now which helps with not having to go to O'Reillys. But running out of easy stuff to try without pulling everything apart.

P0302 is a misfire on cylinder #2, so most likely plug, plug wire, coil or injector. If you have changed the wire, plug and coil I would swap the injector next to see if it follows it. I had this problem after changing plugs and wires once and it was a bad plug wire. Just because you put new parts does not mean it is not bad. I took the new wire off and installed one of my old wires and it fixed my problem. I took the NGK plug wires back and bought OEM wires.

 

Very true. Would be pretty high odds that the old wire went bad and the new one was bad from the get go, but you never know. I guess I'll try swapping wires as it's an easy job and then swap injectors next and see if the code follows.
