Vegetable Oil and Diesel after 17 years
I have run some of my cars on vegetable oil in the past, and despite all the myths it's quite possible. This test bottle has a mixture of 50% diesel and 50% sunflower oil and the fluid has never split, separated, or turned into plastic or wax. It's perfectly normal.
Is it a good idea? Rarely. But is it possible? Oh yes.

Fixed my power aerial for free!

Today I learned that the power aerial on my land cruiser can be fixed with a button. Sadly I had already stripped the entire front end before learning this.

After replacing my dodgy gaskets and o rings, the system appears to be back in action. I think eventually the rear lines will leak out though - so I'll have to keep an eye on it.
A short tour of my Land Cruiser rear storage

One of our viewers asked about the rear shelving and storage on my Land Cruiser 100 series, so here's a quick view of my progress so far. The drawers need to be re-done so they don't stick any more, but maybe this will help anyone who needs some inspiration!

Stripping my 1HD-FTE Land Cruiser engine: Part 1
It didnt look like you gain much more right side coverage with the dash cam over the wolf. I have been looking at dash cams for a while and it just seems that most have very little ability to read license plates which seems like an odd thing to be stuck on. But if it’s a hit and run or something that you witness all you get is a video of the incident. Great video thanks for both reviews on the dash cams.
You're correct but this one allows me to just put it somewhere out of the way so it's not a large thing in my view. My hopes of a fancy digital rear view mirror have been dashed!
you could buy the dash mount, problem solved :) Your rear mirror remains a mirror and the rear camera footage can be seen on the dash
Yeah but it's massive. I bought a small subtle dashcam that was a) not obstructing my view and b) cheap AF
Land Cruiser reliable but look at your it has a lot of rust never buy a suv with rust on it
In our country all 10 year old vehicles have rust, and this one is 21 years old. Inevitable.
The same company sells these with a detached front camera that you mount seperately to the windshield.
Yeah I know but I wanted to try and re-use the same space of the mirror rather than putting a separate cam in.
where do you source wings? I have the same spec Land cruiser with the same issue.
I bought from North South 4x4 and the quality was low. I bought from Nayab Akbar and they were damaged and rusty, and then I just bought a set from Toyota which were perfect.
What would happen if I set the car to 'Hi' after doing sensor lift? will the car break itself?
Nope it most goes a bit higher and higher pressure for the system
7:49 Was really hoping you would call it a wee laddie… Cheers from America! Will be using this heavily upon importing a Euro spec HDJ100!
From now on it shall be known as the wee laddie! I like it!
Remove your mirror and use an adapter plate suitable for the mount and g900. That way you can centre it better
Hey mate…. you’re dashcam is upside down 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
It doesn't work upside down OR right side down. Very dissapointed
Did you tighten the torsion based on pressure specs in tech stream?
I sure did. Ride quality was buttery smooth afterwards. At least until the spheres failed 😂
Can you upgrade the 2.5k camera to a 4K. I found it straining the eyes to look at. the picture on the front camera is better
No I'm afraid it's all integrated. No upgrade options.
I’d still rather have a 25yr old 100 and keep on top of maintenance (=fixing stuff that’s broke) than own anything newer.
Yes it's very hard to recommend any new vehicle really. It's a hard life fixing all of the stuff though.
Do you have techstream? Setting the correct neutral pressures by cranking the torsion bars and changing the rear springs or adding coil spacers makes the ride and longevity of the spheres better.
Yeah pressures were perfect on techstream with big rear springs and correctly torsioned bars. Just age killing the spheres I think
What oil are you using on the AHC? I did a lift on mine but not all the way up. I can still all the L N H from the system. is yours dropping to low by pressing the button?
Yes it's all fully functional. I use the genuine Toyota fluid. It's about £90 to fill the system. I can use all the height settings.
Me too - there are 7 in transit atm either from Japan or uae for my 105
Yeah! What did you get?
@@landcruiserscotland Swivel housing service parts with wheel bearings, weather strips, belts and filters, clips and plastic bushes etc. rear view mirror, cover for grap handle screw, rear light units, dash bulbs, grommets, set of mud flaps, door handle etc. just want everything working properly and standard spec
Once it’s baselined and years of neglected maintenance has been caught up then you will have a reliable cruiser
The thing is it has full service history and loads of parts. Just things go wrong constantly
@@landcruiserscotland mainly due to age and rust I suspect. Had to go through my 60 in a similar. Now that I have replaced most of it it’s great 😊
Yeah that's what I'm going through. Hopefully it's worth it!
That AHC lasted more than I expected. With that massive sensor lift.
Yeah I'll be interested what killed it. 200000 miles or a six month sensor lift
Miss the Audi yet :p
The audi and the range rover were the exact same 😂
@@landcruiserscotland this sound like a user issue then :p haha
Buying old cars issue I reckon 😂 I just bought a new corolla maybe that will be flawless
@@landcruiserscotland hopefully the estate ?
@@JKRmsrt yeah top spec touring ❤️

Lol theyre all in Australia and expensive, as an Australian nothing truer has ever been said.
Actually it has 170degree cam if you see the play back you will see how wide it can record but the love view narrow and u can adjust it up and down ,if u connect the rear cam u there is split view for both front and rear and u will see how wide the angle it records I have one from another brands not wolf box but the same concept
Does it still have the problem where it points off to one side? What brand did you choose?
@@landcruiserscotland bro I don’t know why But I replied to u twice but the replay disappear !
@@landcruiserscotland mine it’s centered because it has adjustable lens with extension so u can slide it a bit to fit your original mirror U can find on a-express many brands with various specs even right mounted lens with reasonable prices just pick what u need Some brands has sony sensors they are the best especially at night I also advice u to buy a bracket ,remove your original mirror and install the bracket it gives u more adjustability and OEM looking
Any update on this car
It had unrecoverable engine damage. Absolute scrap. I broke it down for parts and sold pretty much everything to get my money back.
Any update on your golden car
Major engine failure. Scrapped the whole car to parts. At some point I'll. Do a big video update though
@@landcruiserscotland will be waiting for that one too.
Amazing channel
Glad to be useful!
From Amayama?
An ebay seller had a set of four for about £460 direct from Japan they arrived in only a couple of days. Amazing really.
@@landcruiserscotland can you do a before and after bounce test on each wing...if you can reach 😂 I'd be interested in seeing the difference as I feel my front is a bit harsh going over bumps ( I had mine reconditioned)
@@sambadger7681it doesn't bounce because it's absolutely rock solid. I'll take a video of the pogo stick ride though. It bounces along for the first 5 mins of every journey then settles down. It's very silly
Well if you drive on the proper side of the road this wouldn't be an issue.
I'm in a land cruiser. I drive on BOTH sides of the road
@landcruiserscotland😂
@@landcruiserscotland hahaha
I've got two. One for my truck and one for my wife's Challenger. Both work great.
Your wife clearly has excellent taste 👌
Has it been a reliable vechile for you? Just bought one here in usa 100 series
Largely reliable, but there's a lot of maintenance to do. More than any other car I've had, but at least it's doable in person. Lots of guides online, and plenty of parts and tools available. What one did you get?
@@landcruiserscotland 100 series land cruiser it's a 2006 with 160k miles
Mate, always good to see another mighty 1Hdfte. Even if the Euro model has some ad on accessories. Worthy to note, if the rocker cover hasn’t been off for a while, it can be a bit of a pain. Make sure you get the very rear bolt out too, then a few taps with a dead blow hammer on all around the sides should break the seal. Valve clearances should be done every 10,000km best practise, but I have pushed mine out to 20, 000km without issue. Also, change the rocker cover gasket each time. The rubber compound breaks down over time and heat. Best cruiser ever! Cheers, Matt 03 Sahara Aust.
If you find a nut or a bolt on a Toyota that isn't 8,10,12,14,17,19,21,24mm you can almost guarantee that so one has been in there before you and changed some bits.
If you buy the oem style mounting kit it’s less that $20usd it will give you more adjustability since you’re removing the factory mirror
Best video i have seen yet
You should have bought the UK model for driving on the wrong side of the road/car😂
There wasn't a UK model 😔
I feel your pain. Have you got any tips for someone who's finally got the same one, after being on back order for 6months. I had a quick look, and removed my old intercooler but couldn't see how it would fit so put it all back together to have a better look when the cars not in constant use {hence me buying this and a 3" exhaust in the middle of winter, when the car isn't used every day}. A lC specialist has told me you need to straighten the pipe coming off the bottom of the gearbox cooler and it should fit in front .I can't see it myself though. Did you use the supplied brackets? I wish you'd shown us all how to fit this, or not.
I'm preparing a very long video, but I will attempt a short update. There was cutting and bending involved.
@@landcruiserscotlandokay thank you
I am fitting this now. We have done the gear box cooler but how did you relocate or adapt the power-steering pipe?
I heated it up so I could bend the aluminium over and tucked it down the side. Then I added some foam pads to prevent rub through. I also reused some of the pipe retaining brackets to fasten the steering pipe to the ac pipes. Will post some pictures on Instagram in a few mins
@@landcruiserscotland I've looked at the pictures, thanks for the help, much appreciated. I will let you know how I get on.
Thanks! My aerial on my 100 tries to go up - but as you say only manages a few inches. I couldn't even pull it up with force. So, ignition on - and then press aerial button? Cheers
Yeah just use the button to send it to the sky. When you turn the car off it remembers the new position.
Well, your steering wheel is on the wrong side!😂
I co pomogła ta modyfikacja
Nice 1 ill keep that in mind!
Great video!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Can’t beat genuine Toyota parts for tbat 100 series maybe you could get a recore Of that cooler otherwise I’d imagine it’s gonna be expensive lovely 100 series btw 👍👍
Holy hell! I was thinking about that product but decided to go with universal big cooler. Was very easy to install. Hope you get everything fixed.💪
I just replaced condenser and had it re gassed with dye, also had to degas it to remove rear aircon box to replace failed rear aircon fan and resistor .. fingers crossed all ok now
Deleted mine by bypassing the rear and joining the pipes so the front works. Common fault rear pipes corrode.
Your mirror is upside down.
Thankyou, that's helpful
Not a savage, a complete and utter Muppet. If it goes in, at some point you'll have to take it out. In seriousness though, sharing the failure so others don't make that mistake is great.
Thanks brother
Hi mate. It’s probably the most common mod here in Australia with a HDJ100 - to put a 3 inch exhaust on the car. It does help it breathe a bit better and gives a small improvment. Some keep the muffler, but some people just have a entire straight through exhaust - which is usually super loud.
Thread chaser?
Haha!!!
