Hello to everyone! My father just gave me a 1984 blue toyota. these truck is very clean no rust!!!The engine is not all that, my dad has always had trouble with starting the truck cause of the carburetor. He bought a new carb and he still had problems in cold weather. Not to long ago the engine went out, one cylinder has no compresion and it makes a loud knocking noise. He gave me the truck cause he didn't want to junk it cause of how good it looks and he also bought a new trans about 3 months ago. I will really love to fix the truck and give it back to him on his B-day. I want to put in a feul injection engine on it and I will really appriciate any help from the people in these forum
welcome! glad to hear a toyota is staying on the road..just fyi, if u plan on putting a 22RE (efi motor) in that truck u have alot of work ahead of you. U would need the wiring harness, ecu, afm. plus the motor..to install the wiring harness you have to take out the whole dash.. thats just fyi... whatever u decide we will try and help as much as possible
Thanks Hey thanks you sound like a very nice and smart person! I was wondering if you could point me to the right direction? I knew that I was going to need a ecu, afm, and the engine. Know will the same trans work? From what vehicle should I get the stuff off of? And finally were can I get some info for how to's?I'm sorry for all the question but all your help will be greatly apriciated!!
Welcome to TM! Now thats a good kid and nice b-day present! I hope my kids do something like that for me one day.
Well thank you. My pops deserves it. He really loves these truck. I'm very handy with cars, I build 4g63t engines for some sick ass street/strip cars. So that's why my dad wants to give me that truck cause he knows I'll get it moving but I just want something good and not to fast for my dad. I know he'll love his gift
