Welcome to TacomaWorld

 

I've never seen an auto that you don't check while running.

 

It's best to check on level ground, running in Park, warmed up. The 'warm' mark is the full level.

Fluid should be pink and smell good (not burnt)

If some needs to be added, use a clean funnel, the correct Type IV fluid via the dipstick tube and do NOT overfill.

Thinking they left it out of the book because the 4.0 trucks don't have dipsticks, so some dipstick forgot that the 2.7s did.
