Re: Oil...

Truck gets a Toyota filter and Valvoline 5W30 or Castrol high mileage partial synthetic every 5k. Worked great on my previous 2UZ-FE powered Toyotas and so far the 1GR seems to be OK with it (50k and counting).

 

And the new part is installed! That little tool handier than a pocket on a nightgown

 

Missing just two teef off one gear

 

What is it?

 

That motor.

 

Going to throw in a new cabin air filter too whilst I'm at it. It's even a N95 so no more need to mask up

 

^^^Ouch^^^
Well, at least there is good $$$ to be made...


How about this?

This jump box will not power this pump. Checked the leads and it shows 12v but it won’t turn the pump on. Carried it out and touched the pump wires to the truck battery and it runs fine. Why does the jump box go into default and shut down

I made sure the wires weren’t crossed. Ugh.

 

Pre filter off to left side of cabin filter. It's should blow us right out of the car now, didn't notice removable before.
@RustyGreen that's just what I need for the gutters but don't feel up to the drive today, 50 miles to Lincoln.
@wilcam47 little motor that operates the fresh to recirc mode on car HVAC unit.

 

That sucky @six5crèéd
Great idea and bracket fabrication and all. Dang.
Back to drawing board. Wonder if anyone sells a hook up like you could slide a battery back into?

 

I'm gonna talk to the guy who brings batteries to us, may be able to use one from a powerwheels or something similar. I only need it to hold a charge for 30-45 minutes at a time.

 

Although it is a bit bigger you might try a battery like these, they are sealed and are used in security systems, power wheels, emergency lights, jump boxes, brake away boxes on trailers, etc.
Available in all kinds of sizes and not too expensive, I have one for my trailer and recharge it with a little battery tender occasionally.
You probably have a battery supplier nearby, or even TSC might have them.

 

I was wondering if you were going to have that problem.

That pack has circuitry that checks for 10.5+ volts. If it detects low or no voltage, the pack thinks there may be a dead cell and won't won't produce voltage.

Prevents possibility of a battery fire.

 

Well , scan was clear and the oncologist said I was good to go for 6 months. BAM!!!!
Celebrated by going out to eat chicken and dumplings and cornbread.
Now if I can just get some strength back.

 

Congrats!

 

I guess I'll just get a small 12V battery and put on it for now. Thanks for the info!

 

Good news, Danny

 

Cole has gone wild with the oversize banners

 

new chargers need a small amount of voltage to begin charging or to jump start. Prob a work around. I had to bypass one of my chargers and put a switch in to do an electrolysis mod to get voltage to work.

great news!!!

awesome!

 

I still see people driving like that...
