Probably. I bypassed it on my 89 4wd and drove for years without incident. Never had a problem. I left the dead unit bolted on (it cracked) and just did the double flair and union thing.
I doubt...

And now the key/crank delay has appeared in my 86 cargo.
after I look at the wires around the battery I’m just going straight for a new battery.
hey, it worked 10 years ago for the 89.
yes. The fan on the rad on our 1986 cargo is excellent for fighting heat sisk. Though, out of habit, we still park so we can drive forward once started - backing up sputtering is a nightmare. But...
Can I use the shorter 185 65/r14s on my ‘86 2nd cargo that currently has 185 75/r14s?
this topic confuses me. Anyone done this?
after doing anything to the cooling/heating system we start up in the am with the rad cap off and idle for a bit while bubbles find their way to the cap neck and go away. Heater valve wide open....
gwen’s got it. The spider at the dash fails. We’ve been sliding under the nose to manually adjust the heater valve on our cargo van for 16 years. it used to be annoying but now we have children big...
Certainly looks better than my ‘86. (Which doesn’t look bad but …)
Toytime:
I hung mine as a 'pusher' fan on the front of the rad years ago using the zip tie things that pull through a washer pressing against the fins that are sold exactly for this purpose. Years...
I was suffering from a dying battery which eventually shorted internally.
New battery. No problems since.
Thanks Tim.
Ya, I've been reading the threads. My plan is starting to look like matching my gear code to the newest truck I can find and then ordering parts for that truck. Toyota isn't helpful...
8 months after repair. No issues. I claim we have a good solution.
I used some website program to figure out 15" tires (hard rubber snows for the summer) that closely matched the original tire width and wheel height. Speedo stays accurate and nothing rubs on my...
...and so that's a thread I should start. I have the gear rear end chart and I know 7 1/2 2wd truck difs (not reverse cut ifs type) allegedly fit (from the early 90s) but I've never seen a definite...
We have snow on the ground 6 mos of the year. There isn't a lot of pavement but it isn't soft either. I've got 30 years of driving Toyota 4wd under my belt. I may be too old to relearn anything.Posi...
Good to know but at that price I'd go with a posi insert thing. Yikes!!
So the guys noticed my rear driveshaft (brand new) can be turned a good 1/2 inch each way causing clunking where the rear axles engage in the dif. Pulled the left axle and there was too much play...
Battery was during. Eventually shirted internally. All well now.
We cut it off, converted to American and joined the lines. 8000k later all seems well.
I never reported back:
Both sensors are in. A new cat is in. All went well.
I have yet to check the egr. We just welded on a mount for the rear sensor and plugged it in.
I know we have a slightly flakey fuse box which has required one fuse to have it's spades curved to make them 'fatter' (in case 'fuse box' is the answer) but every now and then I turn the key and...
We use geo tracker rims. Three years on the set so far and the heavier van hasn't broken the tracker (lighter vehicle) rims yet.
Thanks Tim.
Will do. Bleeding will be awful, of course.
Cheers,
Bill
Help! (please) on my 1989 4WD with manual transmission the line goes from the master to the slave cylinder (for the clutch) but stops behind the front bumper and goes in to (and comes out of) the...
I know exactly what you mean. The right tools make all the difference in the world.
1. Abracadabra: yes. That noise is 4wd only. Well, locked hubs only.
2. Tim: I had that same wife+divorce issue over firearms. I already had the tools when I met her but she couldn't see the...
Fantastic!! Many thanks Tim!!!!:yes:
I noticed the cover to my fuse box is gone. My owner's manual went ages ago. I do have my 86 manual for my cargo van. Are the fuses in the same spots or can some kind soul share the fuse panel layout...
I had this once on a chevy. Out of round rotors and loose callipers. Every half turn the pads touched, the callipers moved (whump) but........
Could pad movement do this in case the calipers are...
Ah. Whump, Whump?
That would worry me (but I worry about everything). I would be imagining anything from jumping steering rack or front suspension parts or steering gear to a relatively innocent...
Well Mark,
I'm going to bet on the bushing that toyota morphed into a small bushing with a needle bearing and maybe the inboard end of your driver side front axle being chewed if the noise is...
Thanks Tim.
Ya, It's factory AC.
I'll track down genuine toyota, here or from 1st.
:bdmd:

I blame myself. A chunk of heavy paper went down the vent and for 6 mos the blower fan 'ticks' from the paper.
I kept meaning to clean it out.
I didn't.
Now the motor runs slowly (still ticks,...
...and then report back. My bushings on the front axles (inboard ends) made noises only while driving, intermittently and often only while locked but not in 4wd. BB is spot on. Now you can really do...
I got a noise like that but only in 4wd and it was the big bushing thing we talked about on another thread here. In 2wd the problem was ball joints. Tim will come along and give you some clear ideas...
Best thing I did to the van was toss the auto hubs. Good luck!!And enjoy!
I know this problem too. I bought a 4runner new in 88 that had a driveshaft vibration problem right at 55mph. The dealer reversed the shaft and it changed the vibration to some other annoying spot (I...
Ps the machinist made replacement big bushing on the passenger side was still good but the driver side one had begun to spin (the way a race spins) and showed some signs of beginning to oval. I am...
The parts work. My machinist made bushing had gone sloppy so my mechanic Greg at Calver Auto (Abbotsford Canada- but I don't think Cdn vans are different) replaced the oem style big bushings with the...
and did the part numbers come from the tsb we have from 94 or the one you have from 90? Can you post the part numbers you used?
.....and, thanks!!!!:wave1:
Well? Did you start changing hoses?
Ya, lets get this sorted. I just ordered the part numbers according to the other TSB so I really want to see the Canadian TSB and compare.
The plot thickens!!Thanks BB I'll order the 4 parts as well so both sides can be 'upgraded'. Bill
okay. the front left axle was chattering at the hub when the hubs were locked and the road rough. In 4WD it was okay if I was on the gas. The spacer that goes with the clip and keeps the axle in...
The genius mechanic I go to (seriously!) lowered my ride height (thumping and bumping changing gears is gone) and put in the spacer (you know the spacer and clip that keeps front axles in the hub...
Tim. I hear you. My van is in the shop. I should be able to get the manuf date fir you tonight or tomorrow. If we don't use the new parts I guess I need to find the part number of the orig bushing so...
Also, I guess, if we can no longer buy the original bushing, is this TSB the answer to repairs for us?
Interesting. I'm always driving around (half the year) in the -15 to 32 F range and my van is an 89. Toyota DID try to sell us the new smaller bushing. If the shoe fits, why not???
BB,That would be great. It seems like I should use the right parts. We didn't get grease journals cut and I don't even know what grade of material got used. They gotta go. All help and guidance...
Thanks Tim.
I guess this is just another darn job I should have done when I did the injectors and had the intake manifold off.
Man, I missed the boat on that one and left the hose of death, the TPS...
Hi Tim.
Supposedly the bearing that is mated with the new smaller bushing is:
Bearing, Needle
90364-30011
I don't have the bulletin number.
I also don't like redoing work. I wonder if I can...
