^^^for real, look for a small leak somwhere, had a problem where a jacket was leaking very slow, and burning off from the heat of the block, was in a car tho.....only when we took out the engine we found that problem...

[aidan]

Thanks ill check it out. It not really bothering me that much, only if i make Vega>St. Augustine at the hottest point in the day. I should have time weekend to dig up.

What about changing the lines to silicon? Do they work better?



SNIPER 3000, what tail lights you have? the combination ones with all lights on it or the 4runner style with just the brake light and indicator? It will be easy to get if you just need the holder and a light which available in any parts store, and connect the reverse light wires from the panel. Take it out and see, should take u a 5mins to check. If is anything take a pic of the back of the light and the place it bolting too and post it here!!

A lot depends on the airbox in the vehicle and not the engine. If it's similar to the hilux's airbox, sakura and OEM Toyota are readily available.

[sweeks]

sweeks,cool. Where that is btw :oops: diretions? :mrgreen:

Riverside road is north of Curepe traffic lights ... a road that eventually takes you into Maracas valley.
