    Damn, it has been a looooooong time!! I am super happy to update that the truck is running, driving, and not leaking anything anymore!! Just gotta get the AC charged up and the alignment done. Also have a bit in the interior to finish and the audio. Would love to get it painted soon but we just had new concrete and a gate installed as well so gotta stack some cash back up.

    First time out of the neighborhood and it seems to be doing great. I need to get the alignment done for sure though.

    After driving it for a bit I figured out that my brake booster check valve was backwards so I had to use two feet to stop the thing. Aftet flipping it around and having vacuum to the booster, I could hear air at my feet. New brake booster installed. Also got a new brake pedal rubber pad.

    Been well over a year since my last post. Was so frustrated chasing gas in my plenum I hung it up on the truck for a while.

    So, a week and a half ago the Matrix decided to finally alter it's algorithm for me and blessed me with a video showing a brand new fuel preaure regulator gushing fuel out of the vacuum line like a fire hose. That ended up being my issue all this time, not a cold start injector or anything like that, it was a BAD NEW PART!!

    So I got a new OEM from Toyota and that solved the fuel issue. There had been so much fuel coming down from the plenum down onto the valves and everything it has been bogging down at lower RPMs but the more I run it the better it is. Got a bunch of pics to post so there is more to come.

    @Snaeper helped me remove the transmission pan and clean it up for the 2nd time because I broke a bolt off in the transmission when I was doing the torque. Then after I fixed that @Bikinaz came over and helped me reseal it and get it all put back together.

    Thank you both for your help.

    All put back together with all new vacuum lines, new vacuum acuators and the EGR reinstalled during my chase to find the fuel.
