Fine, here's another one.
I love the little 'whoop' he throws in there and picks up the pace of the plucking around the 1:20 min/sec mark. Happy to say these guys crushed the show i saw them live back in 2016 opening for some band I didn't really care about
But I heard the first little tune from his guitar on this song, they opened with Vagabond and I was hooked man

Its sacasmic

 

Great memory there for sure.

 

Looks like it might be about time for a new starter on the Taco. When I was delivering the track bike yesterday, I stopped to take a leak at a gas station. Come out to hit the road again and I had no crank over. Had to beat on the starter with the breaker bar I had and then it finally kicked. Was fine the rest of the trip. I think it's still the original starter with 330700 some odd miles on it now.

My day is wide open and I'm not sure what I will do

 

You got the contacts and plunger on hand? Or you still need them? You can order em from Toyota but they are just a regular standard parts. That way you keep your high quality OEM Denso starter, you don't want a reman. I've taken apart a Toyota remanned starter to double check the contacts were installed correctly and seated flat, and of course they were cock eyeded and I reseated them proper but this was even a Yota reman from a dealer parts dept.
You can get the parts at the local auto electric house/shop as well. To do it that way I had to take the 2 contacts and plunger into the place to match them up. There are a few different thickness, sizes, etc

 

I don't have any of it on hand right now. Starter has been rock solid up to this point. I probably need to pull it and take a look tho, make sure it's the OEM or an OEM at least. I have some of the history from the PO but there was nothing about a starter replacement which is why I think it's the original still.

 

Wouldn't surprise me if it is, hopefully it's the OG.
Friggin blows my mind that these Denso starters can go a million miles needing only contacts and plungers every couple hundred thousand miles. There's just little else out there that can last like this stuff does.
Either way, I should've grabbed the mic and taken some measurements of the contacts thickness when I did mine. Then we'd have an actual measurement and one could even order generic contacts online for a couple bucks. Next time I need to pull it I will get them
