    just bought my first Taco. I got a 2011 used access cab two wheel drive with the I4.

    My family has owned all sorts of Toyota's over the years and my brother and I worked on all of them. Still do my own wrenching to a degree, I am in my sixties and have arthritis :(. I can still rotate tires, and change fluids but leaning over the engine for a water pump or timing belt change ain't happening any more. Just the thought makes me ache. :eek:

    I'm also a Vietnam Vet for those of you who remember back that far. :oldglory:

    Regards,

    John

    Welcome.

    Good news, it's a real timing chain, no sissy belt, so now worries there.

    Is that a stick?
