    Shampooed these dirty ass seats with my RugDoctor. Came out okay. Think I’m going to replace the cushion on the driver’s seat, that frayed fabric is bothering me.

    Just take a look at the water in the recovery tank.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Thought of another clever vanity plate for the 300zx but it doesnt make much sense since I'll have it in AZ for less than a year.

    You’d be surprised what I can do when I actually want to get something done.

    And my clever plate idea won't pass WAs weird numbering scheme rules, which are extremely specific

    The hilighted one is the one the blows my good plate idea out of the water

    I feel like you want someone to ask what your great idea is.

    I just broke down. Truck loaded up every time I gave it gas and eeventually stalled out. Battery was not getting charge before that. I’m looking for answers on here while at the gas station. Any ideas what thread I should go to? Or how to find some answers

    I'd first see if it runs right on jumper cables to someone elses car. Without a solid charge things get pretty funky and under load it might not even be able to run the fuel injection properly. Sounds like a screwed alternator

    The belt tight enough? You check voltage coming off the alternator?

    I pulled up to the pump. Filled up. And tightened the belt, it was loose. I had a battery light before I pulled up to the pump. When I would give a quick throttle the light would go off. I thought the torque of the quick throttle was causing the belt to grab and thus the alternator would turn enough to work. Right before I got to the pump the engine would hesitate as I throttled.

    Do you have a meter to check the voltage?
    But yeah sounds like bad alternator or the belt isn’t spinning

    After I tightened the belt I hopped in to start the truck and got nothing. So I push started it and I jumped right off. Then slowly choked itself out

    Oh ya but after I tightened the belt that battery light never turned off. But the belt was definitely to loose

    I’m gonna say alternator too. Better for it to go in town than on the mountain, in my experience anyway.
