AZ BS Thread 4²0

Ive got a buddy in Queen Creek that owns his own exhaust shop and can probably get you a new system under the truck.? At least worth a phone call if his location isn't too far for ya.

Owner Is Ross, hes my go to for any exhaust work

 

Thanks for the referral. I'm def going to call and see what options there are... I'm about to take this thing out a long drive with a gallon of gas and a road flare....

 

Scottsdale Muffler, 1879 E 3rd, Tempe. I did not have them do much, but when he rerouted my exhaust he quoted $110 and final charge was $95. Seems to me he is honest. See what he says ... ?

 

For legal purposes this is a joke

 

yes I have a tool and it’s in AZ, but I’m. Not sure where. I lent it out along with the installation press, but I’m not sure where it is. It never came back

 

Anyone from the northern AZ area coming to KOH and passing through flagstaff that could pick up a race suit and bring it out?

I have a new taco friend that needs to drop his oil pan on his Turd gen.. Seeing as I have a 2nd gen I believe it to be a little different? How much PITA is it and any tips I can share with him?? I went over basics of making sure to clean the two mating surfaces After removal and to use high temp RTV. Just cant think of what maybe in the way to remove it.. He has a small leak he wants to address before a road trip. He claims he was lurking on TW to get some Info but hasn't got an account yet to ask these question, or found to much info. Any help I can pass on would be great, Thanks

 

Looks fairly straight forward. Just has to remove the skid plates. This guy doesn't use RTV though, he used silicone?

Like mentioned the pan is fairly easy to get to. If it were me I'd get some of the Toyota FIPG part number

$21 00295-00103 Formed-in-Place Oil Pan Gasket - 3 oz. Tube

00295-00103 or similar for resealing.

 

I figured it was fairly straight forward, just didnt know how much is different under there.! I'll let him know of the part number. Thanks

I dont think silicone is gonna do the job but will share the link with him. Thanks for the video share, I honestly didnt look, just dropped the message after he asked this morning.!

 

High temp RTV is silicone. I'd just use the Toyota OEM goop but anything designed to resist exposure to oil is probably fine. Be sure not to use so much it gooshes out inside the pan, breaks off, and becomes the forbidden sippy for the oil pickup.

 

I may have some extra Toyota FIPG @Yacob_D I'll be using more of it for my 3rd member.. but should be enough for the pan too. The FIPG is also what I used to seal my oil pan. Just take your time. Unbolt. Razor blade to break the gasket seal. Then slowly and lightly start prying with small flat heads evenly around the pan. Clean up flange with razor and whatever else needed to prep surface. Apply FIPG around holes and along flange. Let sit just a bit to tack up, then snug up hardware. Let sit again.. then tighten down.

 

Hey guys

 

The FIPG that you'd want to use on your 3rd member is the orange which is part #

$35 00295-01281 Formed-in-Place Transmission Gasket - 3.5 oz. Tube

00295-01281 and made for gear oil and transmission fluid. Not recommended to use on the oil pan.

Although it'd probably be fine.

 

Your apparent intellect, your witty observations, your insightful wisdom you choose to share with us ... uh, yeah ... I am talking about YOU ... what WAS I thinking?

 

Mrs. Krabappel and Principal Skinner were in the closet making babies and I saw one of the babies and the baby looked at me!

 

Hmmm.. now you have me looking back through stuff. I swear I used the black shit for my 3rd..

00295-00103 Formed-in-Place Oil Pan Gasket - 3 oz. Tube.
Is what I used on everything for rebuilding the 1grfe. Upper and lower oil pan timing chain cover etc.. It's what the Toyota manual said to use as well as the youtubbers

Edit: Also, is what Coupe sends in his oil pan spacer kit. For what it's worth

 

I found it.. this was for the oil pan for sure..



But per my Amazon orders, now I think I used Permatex Right Stuff for the diff last time.. lol
