I'm sure there used to be a Paypal donations link somewhere. I'm positive I used it a few times years ago when Lex helped me out personally.

I haven't had a 1UZ for two years, and even I was worried that Lextreme was gone! (thinking of buying back my old 4Runner heheh)

Just wondering if the early 1UZ starters are the same (exactly) as another more common Toyota engine model? Tried searching with no luck

Hey Rod, TBH mate I'm not sure exactly what else is on that harness, but it's the right side of the engine so it sounds promising. I'm basically after the clip that powers the coil, but, if it happened to have some harness to suit the crank sensor as well that would be double gold, in the...

Desperate! Vehicle is grounded till fixed, trying to avoid paying for a new one in case it's not the issue. Also, am chasing the plug for the LHS (RHS looking at front of engine) coil as mine snapped :S

Whats the go with checking the switches about 6 times, paranoid hehe? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16YgDC03TW0&feature=related

Injected Vapour LPG, not liquid.

Check this out! Despite my hopes though, cleaning it up like new with contact cleaner and clearing codes mad no difference. The sensor checks in at 11k ohm or so, spot on. fastegg: I didn't/don't have liquid lpg mate. Check the alternative fuels section for info i'd say

Discovered a nice coolant leak too, probably more the cause over time?

BTW, symptoms are all of a sudden rough running. Won't idle right, sputters and farts like the timing is out. This is within 2 min after a deep creek crossing, it started during constant slow driving, no harsh accelerator movements to throw the timing out etc. Have cleaned and dried every...

As per the title, after a known working 1UZ crank sensor asap. I sold my 4runner to a mate and it has bit the bullet after a few water crossings and coolant drinking. Not 100% sure it's the sensor (likely, the timing is coincidental with repeat water crossings (4WD)) so before we go overboard...

Crazy, and it's barely even spooled when it launches

Some bad typos there soz, can't edit posts here for some reason.

Would There be a benefit it knocking up a 3.5-4" Dump pipe stepped down to the 2.5" (mandrel) exhaust? Mainly as I can't afford a full system just yet.

It is definitely set up to help towing etc not outright power, I'd rather find a happy medium. It does come on boost quickly, but by time you start reaching high revs the boost level drops off. Making a calcutated guess, I would say the exducer is under 60mm pretty easily. I guess setting up...

One other question on the exhaust side, if you you look at this pic of the dump pipe, how would you fit a 4" dump on there when it looks like the bolts on the flange are barely 4" apart? Soz, never had a turbo before!

I have no idea what the turbo is, it has AXT stamped on it. Here's the intake that fed it, the silver cast pipe actually fits inside regular 3" pipe I just knocked this up

Sorry guys, this isn't for my 1UZ but who else can I trust?! My new Toyota is a turbo 1FZ-FE 4.5L I6, these are only NA normally obviously. The tune the 4WD has is very conservative and I plan to change that. I've been going over intake restrictions at the moment and have sorted from the Atmo...

If you can't get close enough with a screw driver, try a length of normal garden hose, the old bush mechanic stethascope ;)
