Got the Yota tore apart yesterday. We traced the problem to a leaking injector, which meant removing the throttle body and intake manifold. I love these little trucks, this is my 3rd but because they don't break down very often Toyota will rape you on parts. Almost a hundred dollars for the 3 gaskets and injector O-rings!
I also bought one of my ladies a Ford Taurus and discovered the oil drain plug is stripped out. The threads in the pan still look good so I'm gonna put some loctite on the new plug and hope for the best. It runs like a raped ape and the fuel pump has already been replaced, that's what normally goes bad on them. Not bad for $500.

Got the Yota back together and running, but discovered the short line going to the regulator is leaking as well, so it's off to the parts store again.

Oh, and I just realized I had posted in the dualsport forum but not on here.
My long walk back to the Hawk ended December 28th, 6 months and 3 days after the accident. I rode her for about 2 and a half hours. ![]()

Well after replacing all the fuel injector O-rings and replacing the short fuel line going to the regulator it still didn't want to idle. Upon further investigation we discovered that the throttle body intake hose was torn. We wrapped some duct tape around it and now it's purring like a kitten.
Gonna let it set on the trickle charger overnight and the old (30yrs) Yota 4x4 should be back in business. I'm gonna replace the intake boot and put new plugs and wires on it. And if you look at that O-ring it looks like it was improperly assembled by whoever worked on it before.

Duct Tape? That's where you messed up. You should of used some of the flex tape.
