Re: Me and the Toyota.

Me and the Toyota.

This picture was taken a few weeks ago.

Sprayed some electric cleaner on the running light connector shortly after I saw this picture and the bulb lit right up!

Re: It appears that the first cylinder is not firing!!!

Is the brake booster line called the brake booster line in the book?

I have to put in new fuel lines, E-Brake and when I start going through it all I am going to need to test all this stuff out.

Could that cause blue smoke?
