As far as vacuum leaks go, you should probably check the main vacuum line between the intake ad the brake booster.

miles on the odometer, don't know about the engine. It runs well and I have replace parts to the tune of about $300. It should keep running till the tires fall off. I call it my Afghan terrorist truck as these are what they use. I can see why. They run, run, run.
Thanks jzur
I own a 94 toyota pickup. Had the same problem. The fuel filter is located just above the oil filter on the engine block. If you don't know where the oil filter is located, it is located behind a pan in the wheel well on the passenger side of the vehicle. As far as the idle of the four cylinder engine, I think that is normal for it to run rough. I bought my 94 toyota new and it run rough from day one. But it is a very dependable engine. Good Luck, jzur
First start the next day it idles fast, then slow. About a second fast, then a second slow, evenly spaced up and down.
Of course it didn't do this yesterday when I became the proud owner of this rough gem. Can anyone help me work this bug out?
Does anyone know if pre-Tacoma Toyotas ever had individual seats available? I'd love to start my interior upgrade with two "buckets" with firmer back and lateral support and center arm rests. If Toyota supplied these, do they just slip into existing mounts in the floor board? And if they do, do the seat belts need to be reanchored or rewired?
Thanks in advance for your input.
I have an 88 Toyota 4x4 pickup with a V6 3.0L engine. it has 180,000 miles on it. I did a full tune up 5000 miles ago with new: Spark plugs, wires, distributer cap and rotor. I just replaced the air filter and oil 10-40W. I live near Detroit and the engine has a very hard time starting in the cold weather. the truck starts fine in warm weather. But when its cold it will take about 6 or 8 tries of turning the engine over, before it will start. The starter will engage and turn the engine but it has a hard time starting. When the engine does start, it misses real bad, for about 15 to 20 seconds, then starts idling normally. I checked the plugs and they have a brown tint to them but they are not that worn. Any suggestions to whats causing the problem? or how I can fix this myself?
