What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Odd, mine is pretty noticeable, if I try to floor it my engine kicks into 2 cyl mode(seems like ayway) and my engine will scream while staying at 2000 rpm's the whole time and maybe move from 30mph to 32 mph in 3minutes

 

You didn't put too much seafoam in right? I made that mistake one time. And it did the exact same thing. I just floored it down the interstate for a while and cleared up

And where did you pull the code at? Autozone? They always say a misfire when I get them to read a code for me

 

I recently had a wire break and cause a misfire, my ultragauge gave me a code that said exactly which cylinder was misfiring.

 

got the spare tire holder replaced under the recall, and passed another frame inspection!!

 

Never realized how much my hands shake until I did this:


Now it matches my block!

 

Ya AutoZone, i put in 1/3 of the can like it said so

 

I bit the bullet and ordered stuff.

2 things trying to remedy my notchy transmission shifting.

3 things for pure aesthetics (well one of them is actually very functional).

 

Installed an anti-dehydration cap removal system on my rear bumper.

 

Well that sucks. Just got a notification that one of the three things is no longer available... making the other two pretty much useless unless I find a solution.

That said. Anyone recommend good headlight assemblies for a 95-97? These roundeyes, which I had bookmarked for years, are no longer available: http://www.roundeyes.com/Toyota_Headlamps-Rectangular_Toyota_Conversion_Headlamps.html

i was trying to figure out how to get this off so i could change one light to a red light and one white. but i thought i was going to break it so i stopped, am i missing something?

 

i did the same thing to my lights and get compliments from them often, i like it allot.

now i just need to do the bumper

 

Anyone have experiences with these?

looks neat man , I need to do that on mine

 

I wiped mine off.. I got worried of getting pulled over

 

Attempted to tune my cb today. Was going great and then all of the sudden it stopped tuning and stayed at 9....

I think I'm going to tear the whole thing out this weekend and start over....

 

bedrack anyone?



thanks to my father in law I am the proud new owner of this fine peice of metal!

 

sexy

 

Wait, what?

To check, are you following this? http://www.firestik.com/Tech_Docs/Setting_SWR.htm

BTW, I like starting with the tuning stud threaded all the way out to start. Don't know why but I found I can tune them up faster that way.

 

I was following the instructions that came with the SWR meter. Basically doing the same things as that link. I was slowly getting the reading down, then all of the sudden it went to 9 and stayed there. Also there was static electricity every time I touched the metal on the antenna/mount.

Like I said, I think something is shorting out somewhere. I'm just going to remove the coax and all of the wiring and re-run it all over again.
