Your process is sensible. What did ECU vac hose replacement yield?

Lost the IP right on schedule. Removed in it this afternoon. Diesel Fuel Injection Services in Portland used to be the go-to. I’d like Viton wherever possible. They still the best rebuild in the West?

Thanks to Deereman76 and others for this thread. Going for it on the ‘97 1Z quantity adjuster. About 206k on the original IP. Excellent thread! Edit. Did everything Deereman76 posted. Soldering went surprisingly well. Truck started, idled rough, wouldn’t shut off w the key, had to stall it...

Danny, what's the word? Hope you (and the caR) are well.

In the last year +, the truck's been running without issue except for the hi-Torque clockable starter going out. Got a neat little story about it. Like to hear it? Here it goes. This was between Thanksgiving and Winter Solstice. The starter, for a couple of months, had been firing on the 2nd or...

The TDI Yota powers on. I've done little but drive it lately, and that's been very satisfying.

The truck is no longer for sale. It is too rad and runs too strong. It is too perfect for deep off-grid construction work and general remote area exploration. It starts whenever I need it to and runs like a champ. I thought I skipped some things that would bolster its longevity, and I probably...

Re Pics Edited the ad. Thanks for letting me know. #$%&*!@ Photosuckit. This should work. Lots of pics - see the file folder options on the left side of the screen, too. https://s825.photobucket.com/user/truckeebiofuels1/library/Toyota?sort=3&page=1

1984 Toyota pickup, extra-cab, four wheel drive. Blue/blue. 1997 VW (1Z) TDI 1.9 turbo Diesel. Conversion completed 8 years ago by me. 265,000 miles on truck, ~203,000 miles on engine. ~35,000 miles on the swap. Stock 5-speed Toyota manual (original G52 transmission), manual Warn locking...

The truck is for sale. Time for the next project : ) Please PM if interested.

My seats are identical to these: https://external-preview.redd.it/rJUTEDg5NbRg93yYd2cOUnjhhim6kBVoOk5RKytI834.jpg?auto=webp&d5b14857 Local junk yard probably won't add cash to the deal, hence the search for a trade. PPlus I'd be driving to Reno or Sacto. Selling outright, I'd be looking...

Considering trading my R32 front seats for nice MK4 GTI front seats. My wife is disabled, and this is the way to keep the car and make it more comfortable for her. I love these heated Koenig seats (cloth/leather), but they aren't great for longer trips. Sacramento and Reno areas are my...

Testing the Waters for Selling Toyota Diesel. Considering selling the ToyTDI. Change is the only constant. Posting here for feedback from those of you who know about these things. I'm unsure of what to list it for. 1984 Toyota pickup, extra-cab, four wheel drive. Blue. 1997 VW (1Z) TDI 1.9...
