I'm looking to buy a cap for my 1999 Tacoma (2WD, Std Cab).  It's hard
to find information on the web with which to compare the various caps.
Can anybody recommend (or caution against) specific brands?
In my area (Madison, WI), it seems like I can get an A.R.E. or a Century

Looking to convert all the rubber parts in my 2003 4Runner to the e85
compatible fuel parts (like stainless steel tubes, etc). E85 fuel by my
house is $1.79 a gallon vs the 2.25 a gallon for the other stuff. With

I posted earlier about the ECU on my nieces '86 PU. She lives on Maui
and they don't have smog inspections there anyway so what is necesary

Thanks, first for taking a second to answer my post.
I have an 84 2wd pickup, and I recently saw the same model with some sort of

Wanting grill guard or lightbar for my  tacoma. It's for looks only. I
don't do any offroading. Really prefer a grill guard because they look
better.
How much does the average grill guard weigh? Will it make my front sag?

Just got my new tundra, and was looking where and how to change oil when
its time. Below the oil filter there is a cover. Does it need to come off
or part way to let the oil drain out?
And where do you check the trans. fluid level?

On my 1995 Toyota Tacoma my brake lights keep coming on whenever I

problem and how I can go about fixing it?  Thanks
