Maybe he was really a chicken and tired of being called a fat pigeon

 

I want drive out to Silverton, CO and do this next year. Damn it looks like a lot of fun.

Oregon is also $0.10/can or bottle...

And yes, there are no cans/bottles on the side of the road and people dig through every trash can or recycle can to pick out the cans/bottles. It's not uncommon for people to drive around and pick residential garbage/recycle cans for bottles/cans. I catch people all the time at 0500 in the morning picking our cans as when I leave for work.

 

NC (atleast my city) used to be big on recycling. Until they had massive warehouses full of recyclable goods without anyone to buy it/process it. Now the city is very strict on what can go in the recyclables bin.

Recycling anything is a very expensive process. Why would a manufacturer pay more money to use material that they have to spend more time on processing then they would new material? Its a simple business decision to make your product from new raw material instead.

 

Blew off the new IC pipe and blacked out an intersection on the highway

Put it back on on the shoulder of the highway, then limped the truck home, cleaned everything with brake cleaner, and put it back together with hair spray for extra fit

 

Here’s where I’m at on the skipping issue.
Fuel Pressure is at 47psi
Compression is:
Cyl 1 @190psi
Cyl 2@180psi
Cyl 3@175psi
Cyl4@180psi
On top of all the new goodies.

Leaves me to one thing....maybe clogged injector(s)??????

 

Dude at the exhaust shop I went to was a lazy prick, I pulled it off the lift and left. Didn't wanna take the time to do it right, glad I didn't cancel my appt with my regular guy, he's worth the wait.

 

Bad cam or crank sensor maybe? I've had that happen

 

Will check that as well

 

What kind of crap was he trying to skimp out on?

 

Was almost acting like he can't make his own hangers or bend pipes. Just said the muffler is too big... It's physically smaller than stock and the only real hurdle is the inlet is centered instead of offset

 

Just lazy... wants the money but don’t wanna work

 

If I had the tools to bend my own pipe I'd just do it myself chances are I weld better than that bum anyway. Actually about to weld right now

 

Check the injectors with a multimeter

 

Yeah man. I have 2 friends that own shops and they tell me all the time that their tools are at my disposal. Great friends

 

As in the wiring? I’ve used a noid light for testing the wiring. Thinking that one or more may be clogged

 

I've done the PS3. It's probably your hard drive in it failing. That's the only moving part other than fans. Guess it could be one of the fan bearings going bad too. Lots of youtube vids on how to open them.

 

Oil/filter change and finally did the t-case fluid on the 4runner. Made sure the 4wd and center diff lock solenoids were still working after. All is good. Hopefully the Lucas

$30 75w-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)

75w-90 gear oil helps still the minor leaking of the t-case. I think working the 4wd/diff lock solenoids is helping too by keeping the seals lubricated. Someday I'll swap in a FJ t-case that has actual shifters and not worry about the stupid solenoids again.

 

I can’t open a ps4. Not certified.


Need your engine rebuilt? I gotchu fam
