I cant thank you enough for making this. I had it motley figured out with compressed air and the FSM but the AC idle up had me stumped. This is priceless! Im going to screenshot the first screen, laminate it and leave it in the vehicle for future owners!

Finally there is someone in this world that made a video that includes ALL of the hoses and where they go. This video would have saved me hours and hours of time, not to mention the frustration it would have saved had i seen it long ago. Thank you for being the only detailed video in existence. You are awesome and i will forever check your content 1st when i have any issue. Robby in Phx, Az

I have been looking for a video that laid this out so clearly for quite a while now. Thank you so much. I bought a 1995 4Runner not running and I’m in the middle of tearing it down and rebuilding everything broken on it. Decided to do the egr delete and make some more space to work in this cramped engine bay and I was getting very confused by this spaghetti of vacuum hoses. You’ve made my life a lot easier!

Thanks for this video....I'm having to rebuild an entire engine tear-down on a 94 Toyota Pickup with the 3.0. This vehicle came to me from a shop that permanently closed during partial rebuild.....and one of the things I'm fearing most is vacuum routing. This definitely helps, thank you for your time in this!

Thanks for this video. Very helpful. I am hoping to 1up you with a video of my own someday soon. I'm deleting the EGR very soon so I'm planning on documenting everything and while I have everything apart I am wanting to really break down the parts and hoses in a complete video/series and in such a way that it's clear as a bell even for the most novice of mechanics. I'm not a KZfaqr though so it may be a pretty rough video to watch. Thanks again, this is the best break down of the vacuum lines I've seen so far.

Use colored zip ties on these vac lines. Place one on the hose and one on where it goes ! When you run out or colors start using color combinations. Red/black, blue/green...etc. clip off the tails and leave em on. They don't look bad and last forever.

I cant for the life of me figure mine put even after watching this quality vid, mine is a 93 4 runner (aus delivered) the vacuum line from charcoal canister has been blocked off, on some pics and diagrams it says its meant to go to BVSV, whoever has worked on it has got confused at some point i think, the throttle body vacuum lines dont seem right either, i cant find another one locally to me to compare it to either. Any ideas fellas? Cheers

Thanks for this. Is this the same for both 2WD Auto and 4wd manual trans? I have a 2wd auto. I think the shop hooked up the power steering hoses to the wrong spots.. I get a low idle when turning hard and in general.

@southerngearz Жыл бұрын

Yea it is for both you just wont have one vacuum switch for the 4wd. There is that fitting on the back/bottom of the power steering and they tend to break. Also that fitting doesnt come with a new power steering.

Off topic question for ya...what do you advise for loooooong term storage of vehicles? I've got a '99 Dakota which I've decided to make "non-operational" on insurance and registration. It is now garage art for me to clean and admire, I bought it brand new off the lot in 9 of '98, still only 70,000 miles. Should I just take the battery out? Does it matter to put it on jacks? Seems to me if it is going to be art for years it's going to need new tires regardless.

@southerngearz 3 жыл бұрын

I would disconnect the battery remove the fuel pump fuse and run it until it dies and get some stabil fuel additive. I would also fog the inside by removing the spark plugs and spraying wd40 inside to prevent rusting. Jack stands i wouldnt worry about like you said they will be bad anyways from just sitting. Shot of air from time to time just so its not on the ground.

@southerngearz 3 жыл бұрын

Of course remove the battery after cranking and it dying

@hempseedaddict 3 жыл бұрын

@@southerngearz Do you have a preferred fuel additive? I'm in the desert, very dry air, so rust isn't an issue. I plan to clean and caress it here and there, so air would be a good idea too.

How do you get that No. 1 air hose, under the plenum, hooked up? There is no room for my hand at the reed valve.

You may need to remove the plenum in order to have the space.

Or at least lift it enough to have better access so you dont have to remove everything

@drivewaytruck2561 2 жыл бұрын

I second this. I was trying to disconnect this #1 line last night and after 20 minutes of no success due to lack of access I gave up and cut it lol. Works fine since I’m deleting the egr system anyway but in hindsight if I had the plenum removed my life would have been much easier.
