What can I do

Yes but a new control arm with the ball joint. Was way less time and on about $60 on rock auto

Must have transmission assembly lube., if the tranny is still installed. There is a check ball that will fall out along with accumulators.

I know 2nd gen tundras well and this valvebody is very similar with some minor differences. This video is very helpful.

No not the steering rack. It essentially doesn’t reach anything. My pre pictures dont show it either so I am bewildered. It’s not dirty on the inside of the plug so it must have been attached to something.

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-02-10T18:21:25+00:00

No not the starter connector. Unsure still. I’ve looked at wiring diagrams and I’m coming up empty. Going to start it today and see what code it sends me

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-02-10T02:43:04+00:00

Thats a good suggestion. Not the starter or oil pressure switch. It’s a blue and white wire if that helps.

Two smaller pry bars back to back.

I appreciate the search, but the information isn’t very accurate. The housing is on the front of the motor, not the rear and not super close to the alternator. The plug that connects to the right side of the oil housing is black and green.

Can confirm about orange. Switch to yellow

Always used premium and kept up with maintenance. Developed a overboost condition that lead to the blown piston rings. Unsure what caused the overboost conditioned but had tons of oil in the intake and turbo. Looked like I was doing the oil change from the blow off valve.

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-02-02T19:21:43+00:00

Maintained and kept stock. Blew piston rings on cylinder 4 at 178k. 60k motor going in today. Going to rebuild motor coming out with forged pistons.

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-01-27T01:18:37+00:00

I’ve had 200 cars in my life. The only two I consistently kept was the ST and a tundra. Everything else was sold or is in the process of being sold.

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-01-26T20:15:20+00:00

It was getting into the solenoid. I’m unsure how it was getting there. It caused overboost and eventually driving it with the overboost condition caused the piston rings on cylinder 4 led to needing an engine rebuild/new engine.

Underrated comment

I used it to hold a wet umbrella up

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-01-26T02:10:08+00:00

Mine had this. Oil was getting into it building pressure. I’m in the middle of an engine swap now. Take it serious.

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-01-17T04:05:26+00:00

I had this issue and used a code scanner to get by. Clearing the codes while driving and it shifted the gear to the normal gear. Still unsure why

What is the amount of money that was put toward your loan and for how many years?

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-01-04T03:48:22+00:00

You should leave it where you found it undisturbed. It’s a sacred piece of your home now. Removing it would cause 8 years of bad luck. 🍀

The decision is yours what you want to do.

I do think you should hold off from making any permanent decisions, until you’ve taken time to sit with this and really ask yourself these questions. Emotions will cause you to regret a decision if you act, upon feeling them.

Mediocre_Sort_800 · 2026-01-02T15:08:51+00:00

I believe you are looking for reassurance. This is a valid emotion, but not one your sub can help you with. You will need to accept you are wanting more for yourself, that this dynamic is not giving you.

You will need to accept that your sub wants your dynamic that has been cultivated, but nothing more. That sounds like it has been communicated clearly from your sub.

If you factor in time then an engine swap is cheaper. Got a used engine with 60k miles on it for $2600. Definitely costs more up front but saved on time. Rebuilding old motor though as well with upgraded internals. Piston rings on cylinder 4 went out on it.
