    Awesome truck! Toyota needs to bring back the small pickups! Looking forward to seeing part 2. A 5vzfe 3.4 swap would be your best bet when that 3.0 blows up eventually.

    Great Find! I had a 93 like this but white with 6 inch lift on 33s. Loved it. I like the big paint brush for hitting hard to reach area's. I going to definitely try that. Oh yeah I got a foam cannon and love jt!

    • @reds_rebuilds

      Thats cool. The brush definitely makes short work of those hard to reach areas!! And the foam cannon is a game changer!

    Nice find! Make sure to be easy on that 3VZ and not let it overheat. The heads tend to crack over time on them. Not as reliable as the 22RE, but still a fine motor. Love the 5th gens!
    Also, to protect the dash, use 303. That stuff works wonders and leaves it looking new.

    • @reds_rebuilds
      @reds_rebuilds  2 года назад +1

      I've heard they are not as reliable as the 22re but its going to be gone through on the next video and getting a bunch of parts to make it ready for the road!! Especially the cooling system!

    • @filthyheathen1504
      @filthyheathen1504 Год назад +1

      If you’re investing any kind of money in that engine I, and most people, would recommend you engine swap it, 22re or 3.4…

    Great video! I’d save the speakers, kinda goes with the era of the truck. Any shop vac from Home Depot or Lowe’s would probably work better for ya than the vac you have. You have an awesome little truck. Thanks for sharing!

    • @reds_rebuilds
      @reds_rebuilds  2 года назад +2

    You can always try some ceramic coating on plastics. I know on black plastics and rubbers it makes them look new. I would assume it should help gray ones just the same.

    I have the same engine (1994 Toyota pickup V6 3.0/3VZE), and I'm getting a code 24 and code 31...rough idle, rich running, hesitation sometimes when i press on the gas pedal, check engine light on, and occasional backfire when first starting (cold). The truck came with an EGR delete set up, as well as a cold air intake simplification mod when I bought it. If you (or anyone) could offer some guidance, I am by myself and really need help. Thanks!
