  1. Finally managed to buy a s/h diesel tank from regional Victoria out of a 1988 diesel 4Runner. Perfect fit. Cleaned thoroughly, replaced fuel lines, installed a new battery, fired up immediately after sitting for 4 years. Happy days. Replaced all fluids, new radiator (sold a kidney to buy that item). Upgraded all brake components, steering linkages, control arms. Runs beautifully again. Next on the list...new suspension.
  2. Many thanks for your reply. Pre covid I have bought parts back from US as checked baggage whilst on holidays there. Travellers are allowed 2 bags at 30kg each so my wife and I have brought back 120kg between us. That's a lot of parts and Ryobi 1 tools. 😷 I have tried market place without success to date. I have found a diesel tank but not sure if this will work even with a good clean. Haven't given up hope yet.
  3. Hi. New to this forum. I have a 1986 4Runner (petrol). Owned since new and given it's age, things are starting to need replacing. It has done approx 140000km but haven't driven it for a while. The vehicle is in excellent condition. I have found that the fuel tank has rusted beyond repair but, given it's age, Toyota no longer stocks tanks. USA has heaps available but freight costs are prohibitive. Good used tanks are as rare as the proverbial and the aftermarket companies don't want to know about it. Without a tank, I basically have a garden ornament. My final thought is to get a custom made tank but here in Central Qld, that isn't a viable option. Does anyone on this forum know what options I may have to find a replacement tank? Any help is greatly appreciated.
