What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

dudddeeeee check out the throttle body lolz this morning she died on me on the highway but fired right back up. need to get an intake manifold, clogged that stupid built in filter on the intake side of the airbox. couldn’t breath. should be good tomorrow with the new parts on. i figured if it was gonna hydro lock it would have happened last saturday when i got stuck

 

My Throttle Body doesn't look like this and it's not even on my truck! Dude I know you got new parts coming but just

 

i know i know haha. i was the winch guy most of that day but the one time i get stuck this happens lol should’ve stayed out of the deep end of the pool

 

wasn’t on purpose. i think i just went through too many time and it eventually just built up.

 

Would love to see the your Blackstone Labs oil change sample report.

 

Did you save the instructions in case you need to remove it

 

changing that shit lol

 

It’s about time something broke! Alternator just ate its second battery in a month, not what I wanted to do on the 2nd gen today!

 

Least it ain't up armoured.

I went to push start mine with all the steel trail armour and nuh-uh, even on flat ground you ain't doing it.


Seriously that sucks though.

 

The best part about this is my friend conveniently there to take a video but not help push it!

Just hit 80k miles on this 07, curios to see what breaks next!

 

That looks……. Cold! (But fun) Hope you had a good heater!

 

$170ish
Not including the big hole saw
And optional syklone precleaner

why? So the truck can go through water without worry

fenders are $50. The truck is old. The snorkel covers the hole you cut.

depends on your intended use. If the use is 2wd in a sunny state as a work truck for a lawn mowing business then it’s not needed

cleans up the engine bay. A simple tube exiting. As opposed to cowl intake mod (direct intake to suck in rain water from cowl area mod)
Doesn’t reduce visibility much given the truck already has big pillars and grab handle there

 

Yes. But I ain't dropping the rear end pulling the engine again. It's just going to have to stay there once it runs out.

 

No worries I was just curious I have seen these intakes posted but never seen one in use and was curious about the water at the front for deeper water crossings. I went cowl intake cause that was the main thing that worried me.

 

Attaboy

 

Appreciate the heads up about calmini. Your truck looks good to me man!

 

Is your FJC intake box from a 10-14 year model?

 

Appreciate that!

They agreed to a refund and now I have the story that they already sent the money but I havent gotten it? Its 2022, it takes minutes to wire money across the world. They are liars. Period.

 

Does that flap between the engine intake and HVAC actually help with the noise?
