My 1995 truck has a horn that works fine when it's above freezing but when it gets very cold the horn stops working. Not a peep, nothing. It's all or nothing. Anyone else have this happen? I suspect the horn relay.
My truck has a rival! Mine is a 1995 DX (the last of them) with 27k miles, also rust-free because my late father had it sprayed with Rustop annually for 19 years. I love and miss him very much.
Your choices are replace the head gasket and have a $3500 truck or you can an sell it for parts. Sadly everything else you did is moot in the car business. Best of luck to you.
It sounds like you performed the truck's first oil change. I pray you don't have clogged oil galleys and resulting bearing damage but it sounds like there is. MMO is a good product but it's not magic. It's best used as an oil additive for vehicles that take old school oil. Best of luck.
It seems odd to me that Rustop is relatively unknown despite the fact it works so well. We have a '95 Toyota pickup and a 98 Contour still rust free and buffalo is the rust capital of North America!
I have the same truck but it's a stock 1995 with 27,000 miles. It averages 22.5 mpg in the summer in 2WD suburban driving. Giant mud tires kill mileage don't worry about the bug deflector!
Every message board has an oil debate. Synthetic outlasts conventional oil but as long as you change it often enough and use the recommended type and weight you can't go wrong with either. Clean oil is better than dirty oil and will protect your driveline for 200k miles or more if it's kept clean.
Prices are dropping but as of today we are at $3.40-$3.44 in the Buffalo, NY area. We always pay among the highest prices in the nation. NY State Democrat Tax Machine in action don't ya know!
Thanks for the useful info. To me this is too good a 4WD to sell so cheap. It would take five figures for me to even think about it. I had it inspected last week and learned the brakes are original and aren't half worn yet, but there is one thing. The interior is as plain as the exterior is...
I looked up the value of my dad's beautiful truck only to find out according to these websites it's only worth between $3,100 and $5,600 depending who you may believe. Not a chance. I don't want to sell it but if you had a rust-free undamaged 1995 Toyota Pickup 4 cyl 4x4 5-speed standard cab...
My father recently left me his red 1995 Toyota 4x4 standard cab pickup. Since I've decided to keep it I'm here to learn what I can so I can keep it going so I can leave it to one of my sons when I kick the bucket. (hopefully one of them will learn how to shift gears by then) No, that's not my...
