So, i recently bought an early 06 N70 1KD with 240k on it, it's started to blow a little bit of white smoke on startup and when I gave it its first oil change I noticed the oil pickup was pretty mucky. I gave the oil pickup a clean, but don't have the spare coin to do a full set of injectors at the moment. Is there any reason I can't just get the seals changed and keep using the injectors to keep it on the road? Is there a better way to clean that damn oil pickup than shoving little brushes up the sump plug? Someone on facebook said you can spray brake cleaner up there and then tip a couple of liters of oil back down the hatch to flush it out after, but not sure if that was legit?

Get a scantool or techstream that can read the values of the injectors they dont want to over 3  they have a scale of 0 to 5 - 5 is cactus ,change your oil regulary and keep an eye on the oil pickup 

Theres vids on injector replacement on youtube

      Anyone had this Issue

      The warning lights only come on for a split second, The car gives a "cough" then runs fine again for a little while then does it again, I have tried the OBD2 scanner trick but since it is only a split second it doesnt come up with anything hence me changing out sensors etc to try that route, Its got to be an electrical fault like you mention but its one of those head scratchers.

      Appears that you have thrown the "Parts Cannon" at this problem. This is an expensive approach. Better approach is to use diagnostics to actually determine the causes then start the eliminations to finally resolve the issue. Appears to be an intermittent issue caused by a bad electrical connection to the sensor instead of the actual sensor. Have you used an OBDII scanner to determine if there are any error codes, especially pending codes? It may be necessary to do a scan when those warning lights are displaying.

      Anyone had this Issue

      Hi All, Got a weird one here over the ditch, I have a 2004 Vitz/Echo/Yaris with the 2SZ-FE engine, Ran great for years for commuting to work but now has developed an annoying issue, When driving along the car will give a sudden *****, The High temp light comes on and the engine check light comes on when it does it and it only happens for a split second then goes out and the car runs fine until it does it again, It will sit and idle fine for ages with no issues, I changed the plugs, plug holders and coils, Changed the crank angle sensor, Cam sensor, Water temp sensor, VVT sensor, Have taken every plug i can see off and cleaned them with contact cleaner and yet the fault is still there, At present i have disconnected the battery to try and clear the ECU, Kind of running out of ideas here, Anyone else got any cunning plans out there??? Thanks

      Landcruiser 200 suspension upgrade opinions with GVM Upgrade, OME BP51?

      I went with the Lovell GVM upgrade via TJM Geelong. They did a great job. My rig has the usual goodies, bullbar, winch, drawer system under body armour etc. It gives about a 50mm lift on the back. With my rig fully loaded and the caravan on (200KG ball weight) remarkably I end up with the same trim position, i.e. wheel arch height as the day I picked the car up from the dealer. I have never had even the tiniest issue with the set up.

      Leather steering wheel cover on VX LC 200 series falling apart

      Had the same problem on mine, when the vehicle was just out of warranty. My local Toyota dealer however refused to even talk to me about it. Ended up with a replacement via EC Offroad. Ended up with a better wheel than standard.

      Cheers ZZT86! No idea how much longer I'll keep it, probably the rest of my life at this rate but I've never had doubts that it wouldn't travel this far if I'm honest compared to my old Honda that's for sure.
