You should go back and reread the original post Do you run diesel or petrol Diesels Dont use a carby I drive a petrol 84 4 runner and get about 13 What size is your engine your 50ltrs is getting you 384 ks so is comparable to the original post but your probabaly running a 3Y or 4Y engine which is only 2ltr or 2.2 not 2.4 an issue with your injectors once again CARBY no injectors to have trouble with Could also be your alternator not charging enough and voltage jumping. If you have a volt meter test your alternator and then clean up your plugs. If this doesnt help check your timing. (also check your exhaust for any holes/leaky gaskets - this will make a HUGE difference. This is good advice Dont forget the 2.4 is prone to head gasket trouble Check for steam out of exhauast or water in oil. Cars are like horses; they need a good run every now and then or the build up carbon and slowly choke. The long drive will get any carbon out of the exhaust system and will allow the engine to hum nicely. When was the last time you rode a horse that was choking on carbon??????? How about going to a good mechanic and having the engine decoked Good luck Ruskki Please look for other advice.

Work out the overall diameter/circumference of the tyres, that should tell you the story. Roll lout is the biggest concern you will have, this is the distance the wheel takes to do one complete revolution. Put a chalk mark on the tyre (I use a level across the centre of the tyre)put a coresponding mark on the ground, then roll the vehicle (or just the tyre) along until the mark on the tyre reaches the level again, then put a coresponing mark on the ground again. Now measure the distance betweeen the two markes on the ground and that is roll out. Now measure the length of your chains, any diference between wheel roll out and chain length will tell you if they will fit. I would think not as you might have trouble hooking them up. Good luck.

1. Yep, happens ALL the time. You should use Loctite if the bolts aren't coming off in a hurry, or a spring washer if they will be removed. 2. Can be a variety of things, does it actually want to go in gear (but act like it's in neutral) or are you just not able to push the selector into those positions? 1. what he said 2. sounds like the rod holding those two gears has slipped, 5th and reverse are on the same set so with both being gone it stands to reason. Its a ten year old vehicle, it might be easyer to find a replacement gear box, should be a few around now.

wow sounds to me you got a great jumbled hook up under the dash and thats where I would start with fixing the mixed up speaker positions. As for the bottom out it sounds to me like it could be one of two problems - 1 you may have a short in the wire or 2 it may be that the speaker is wired in the wrong polarity, which by the sound of the others being all over the shot is more than likely. Good luck.

You could be experiencing dif wind up, which is puting reverse pressure on the gears. To fix, try hitting the button to deactivate 4wd and then hook reverse gear and go backwards a few metres, or you could spin the wheels a bit, but thaats not as easy on tarmac.

Ha Ha YES Maybe you could try calling a dealer, they would be able to tell you where to get the right type of Tech screw.
