    I'm kind of wondering tho. The injector I posted doesn't have any Toyota part number on it. Is that normal for an OEM used injector? I should look at the other 2 sets of stock 4runner injectors I have.

    It’s not an oem injector. It’s a denso aftermarket.

    Looking at it closer, it looks like the part number was actually removed. Maybe Keith is doing that to try and prevent people from sourcing injectors themselves.

    Did some further research this morning.

    The pink injectors are Toyota 23250-0A020/Denso 4400 injectors. I verified the ohm resistance so I'm pretty positive these are a match.
    Fuel Injector Specifications
    Long size, Sumitomo port
    Resistance: 12.8 Ohms (I measured 12.8 on the broken one)
    Static Flow Rate: 255 cc/min (I found one site that listed these at 288cc)
    Fuel Pressure Rate: 3 BAR
    Fuel Nozzle: 12 hole, disc-type

    Found a couple places to buy them individually:

    https://www.fiveomotorsport.com/232090a020-denso/ - Pricey at $53/ea but they are for sure going to be original Denso for that price. Listed as new parts.
    https://www.injectorplanet.com/products/denso-4400 - Much cheaper at $18/ea. Maybe rebuilds? Or fakes for that price?

    For shits and giggles, I checked my original 4 hole injectors. They are a greenish-blue.
    Toyota 23250-50040/Denso 3420
    Fuel Injector Specifications
    Long size, Sumitomo port
    Resistance: 13.5 Ohms (I measured 13.1/2 on mine)
    Static Flow Rate: 250 cc/min
    Fuel Pressure Rate: 3 BAR
    Fuel Nozzle: 4 hole, disc-type

    Take a look at this. This is why I was thinking the part # was removed. Note the arrow pointing at what looks like the remainder of a part #, a partial 0. That would match the Toyota part # I found listed above, 23250-0A020. Just speculating.

    Forgot to post about this. While I was doing the timing belt, I received the WeatherTech floor mats I had ordered the week before. I really like them, much nicer than the OEM rubber floor mats the 4runner had when I got it. It also had the OEM carpet floor mats under those when I first drove it home. Both were nasty so the carpet ones were thrown away immediately. I used the rubber ones until the WeatherTechs came in.

    The buttons you see on the front floor mats do not come with them. I added those, just plastic trim button things, to keep the floor mats better secured in place. They already fit very well with little movement but now they don't move at all. I only needed one on the driver side, just to suck the mat up to the kick panel better. Rear doesn't need them at all.

    I just did my front diff few weeks ago, same nightmare. I rounded the nut. I drained the oil (drain nut came easy), filled with the 12v oil pump that i had used for tranny oil change in the past. It was a breeze. Toyota should have just put a square head like the lawn mowers have for draining..you can just use the end of your 3/8 wrench.

    The Lexus GX470? (not sure I have the model right but the equivalent to the 4runner) has a square head drain plug. You can only get it from Lexus however. I'll post up the part # if I can find it

    Haven't made that decision still. I'm kinda leaning towards maybe (MAYBE!!!) selling the Taco.

    It's been a done deal, the only reason why it's not in my hands is because I'm paying cash, and trading a firearm. I'm buying it from the service manager that I work with.

    No FFLs are doing a PPT due to COVID
