    Thanks to the POTUS money, 2020 BTW... the front bumper had a bad dent. I screwed on some model train tracks to hide it. They look just like the new grill. I replaced the grill too.

    Flares or Rust ?

    A body man said getting that fender rust repaired is "throwing good money after bad", so... I just covered it with a band aid. 3M foam auto tape and a prayer may get me through a couple more years, 'till my ship comes in....

    Rubber Bump Stop solved Low Idle

    Just got the Taco back today after second try at a local garage. Now, it runs perfectly. They said the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve wasn't being read accurately by the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). It was either closing too soon or too late.... They had to reset the TPS to the ECU...

    frame recalls

    I had parts of mine replaced. About $1,100.00. I'm trying to get Toyota to reimburse me for it. Bought the truck new. I got nothing on first try. Now, I'm trying through my Ohio Attorney General's office.

    Rubber Bump Stop solved Low Idle

    I had most of the normal maintenance done to correct my low idle problem. Thinking back though, I remember finding a rubber piece on the floor near the gas pedal. I just looked around but could find nothing wrong. I started hearing a slight click when I let off of the gas pedal. One day I got...

    Headlight adjustment is confusing me.

    Answered the "why" in next reply. My real problem is... the small plastic nut-shaped devices are breaking and I can't get the lights to move either way. I could break off the plastics and vice-grip the metal but if they're frozen in the lamps... I might as well piss on them..lol

    Headlight adjustment is confusing me.

    Three things. The front bumper was tagged by a Caddy coasting backwards into me, the driver's side bumper was slighted on an icy snow pile and I installed high-brightness bulbs. Also, I just wet-sanded, cleaned and UV spray-painted the lenses.

    Headlight adjustment is confusing me.

    I feel that instruction #2 describes the opposite direction adjustment screws.

    Headlight adjustment is confusing me.

    The manual is confusing and these screws are almost breaking off. Any information ?
