Ontario BS Thread

These are imitation wheels made in China, but yeah price is hard to beat. "Real" Toyota wheels are typically made in the Bodine Aluminum plant in Canada.

 

Is this anybody? Seen at rbc close to milton probably taking a loan out for mods.

 

Probably bad line or your radiaotor drain plug somehow got open.


My best diagnostictool with old vehicles is:




But since it’s your DD, check all the lines first with hands and see if there is any loose or missing couplings that result in line a leak. And under radiator there are two spots for drain plugs, make sure they are tight.

 

Although plenty of things that are made in China is no different from OEM quality today, I am curious if those wheels will withstand all rock bouncing and not crack. I’ve seen chinese wheels crack before from hitting Toronto potholes.

 

Thank you, do you know where it is on the frame ? I’ll take a look and is there any wires on it already

 

Honestly it looks and feels nothing like coolant so I’m confused, and even though it’s cold it would have evaporated even a little bit by now. The only other thing I can think of is residue from the oil spray maybe was heat up from the engine and it dripped out one of the holes in the skid plate? Cause oil would 100% not be leaking from right under the radiator. And it isn’t from the engine and running down the skid plate because it’s dripping from the highest part of the skid plate. I’m perplexed lol. Only thing that made me think coolant was my reservoir is pretty low but it’s been like that for a while I just haven’t gone to Toyota to get the good stuff.

 

What's it taste like? Coolant will be sweet

 

Brb gonna go lick the ground haha

 

Serious, dab it on your finger and stick it on your tongue. Not asking ya to swallow lol

 

On top of the frame. It is the ground for all the lights and fuel stuff back there

Hard to see but if you zoom in it’s just by one of the bed mounts. I circled it the best I could

 

Upon further inspection it doesn’t seem to be coolant. Wasn’t sweet. Tasted oily lmfao. Crawled under and looked up at my skid and saw a milky oil spray residue lookin like a drippy motherfucker. Took a swipe of it with my finger and put it on the ground beside the drips. Looked identical. Think this case is closed until further drippage.

 

Cvs gone?

 

See, a lil tongue action works wonders...thats what she said

 

Don’t think so, they’re oily but I just got them oil sprayed and the fins haven’t been rubbing because the angle is stock height angle. The drip is too far forward for CVs or diff cause I haven’t moved the truck. Unless some shit Honda parked in my driveway for the day it’s the oil spray or something.



Bottom of skid. You can see the milky residue to the left of the hole.

 

What did you spray on there...??

Krown or something else..!

 

I get Krown. My buddy works there so I get a deal

 

Well I’m an idiot.

Apparently my sister came home to visit for the day from university while I was at school.

She drives a 98 Honda Accord.

It leaks.

This is awkward

 

Dood, you licked yours sisters sludge leavin's....GROSS!!!!

animal!

 

I knew it tasted like Honda

 

Is that above the gas tank?

My backup cam was working fine but my ground wire broke, the copper frayed because it’s a small 18 guage wire. I can’t get it to work anymore, I put it under a bolt on the frame and tested in various spots as well but it’s not working anymore. The camera still has power though because the lights turn on
