    UPDATE:
    Ran quite a few miles moving to South Carolina the past few months.

    Oil / Filter Change: 03-16-2020 243,640 miles * changed myself * ( 5426 miles )


    Oil / Filter Change: 06-05-2020 248,055 miles * changed myself * ( 4415 miles )


    * Ordered new lock cylinder from Toyota Parts Deals ( Part No.:
    $95 69057-35070 Cylinder and Key Set
    69057-35070 CYLINDER & KEY SET )
    the old one is getting more difficult to turn at times.
    will contact local locksmith to see if it can be coded for original keys so I dont have to have separate keys for doors and ignition.

    Been having issues with truck stalling, just dies while accelerating. CEL code P0100 ( MAF sensor )
    I changed this out 12/18 with Denso brand, cleaned out MAF sensor and thought that did the trick... but it stalled out 2 days later.
    before I order a new one, will do more research. Hope its not fuel pump.

    guess I need to change fuel filter too.

    will update when I find out what the issue is.

    UPDATE:

    6/9/20:
    Ended up replacing MAF sensor, seemed to fix the issue of stalling.

    6/10/20:
    Changed out key cylinder part I ordered, pretty easy fix. Nice to not have to sit and mess with a key that won’t turn.

    rec’d new fuel filter, will be changing this out as well in few days.

    ordered new vent shades too

    UPDATE:

    7-6: 249,285 miles
    fuel-filter3.jpg
    Changed out fuel filter. other one didn't look bad, until I took it off and fuel that emptied from it was nasty and dark color.
    not to bad of a job, front line fitting was a little sized but sprayed it with penetrating oil and let it sit for a bit and then it finally released.
    no leaks after installed, so good to go.

    These are supposed to be changed out every 25,000 miles.

    just to update on the MAF... this seemed to be the issue, no problems since changing it out.
