    Picked this 90' toyota up for $200,didn't run or shift,no compressors for the airride.truck sat for about 5-6years.hauled it to my buddies house and we started eliminating causes of why it didn't run.clean the injectors,put a clean fuel cell in,bleed slave cylinder and a tune up. and we was on the road.truck was "bagged" up front only with no compressor's but luckly the tank had a schrader valve so i could air up with my air compressor at home.ordered 2 viair 444's and started buying parts for the rear of the truck,its still a big project truck but i still drive it daily till i fix my other vehicle.
