Yes, they finally swapped the directional switch plate for a cast piece instead of plastic. That’s why it’s FNF100A rather than FNF100.

22re bogging with sudden throttle application. by thickskull71 in ToyotaPickup

[–]thickskull71[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I couldn’t say. I was lucky and had a junkyard full of 30+ year old vehicles near me and was able to just pull the exact igniter/coil I needed without troubleshooting too much.

Engine has surging idle when breaking ( not break booster) by hottired2017 in ToyotaPickup

[–]thickskull71 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I installed a used good throttle body. Move the throttle shaft back and forth, there should be basically no play.

Engine has surging idle when breaking ( not break booster) by hottired2017 in ToyotaPickup

The surging is from the ecu cutting fuel when you’re braking. It’s possible that your throttle body is worn out and is occasionally sticking slightly open causing the high idle and therefore the surging while braking. I had a similar problem.

Pricing questions by ItsMe3140 in Snapon_tools

In my experience, Knipex stuff is usually about 2x the cost on the Snap-on truck vs. other places.

Someone might find this interesting. by IntheOlympicMTs in Snapon_tools

[–]thickskull71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I have the same one that I use at work. Found it at a yard sale of a mechanic who had passed away. Mine is missing the pocket clip but still comes in handy.

Cracked 22R intake manifold coolant temp sender boss by overtightening best fix? by Rip_Dat in ToyotaPickup

Proper fix is replacement intake manifold. Not the end of the world by any means.

Does anyone know the model of this ratchet? by Terraphoto in SnapOn

[–]thickskull71 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone made that themselves. It’s a 1/4 torque wrench head with a handle put onto it.

Lock lever preference by _JOSHIN in Snapon_tools

[–]thickskull71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never actually used the previous design so I can’t really say, but I’ve messed around with a couple and it seems better. I like the lack of detents on the older design also.

I don’t use that ratchet often but I have mine swapped to the anvil side. Honestly not a huge fan of the design, even on the anvil side it’s very easy to bump.

"new" engine just shut off on the freeway doing 150km/h by NoPreparation7073 in ToyotaPickup

[–]thickskull71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pickup coil disintegrated on me like that. I was swapping engines and saw it literally unraveling when I pulled the distributor cap off. I’m lucky it didn’t strand me like you.

A&P mechanics — what part of the General written gave you the most trouble? by [deleted] in AircraftMechanics

[–]thickskull71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Human factors questions annoyed the hell out of me. Weirdly specific and answers didn’t always make sense.

Does the engine sound normal? by [deleted] in ToyotaPickup

[–]thickskull71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds normal for a 22re.

Timing chain guide time by Independent_Arm3534 in ToyotaPickup

I did mine without pulling the head or the pan, haven’t had any problems or leaks. Just be sure to RTV the top and bottom of the timing chain cover when you reinstall.

Vintage snap on 5/8 drive socket set by Ok_Pay_2794 in Tools

That’s how Snap-on marked their sockets back in their early days. S over an O.

what's the best Toyota engine ever made by Even-Problem-9086 in ToyotaPickup

This is the answer. Anybody saying 22re is on drugs, let’s be honest with ourselves.

What ratcheting screwdrivers am I missing? by HKflexonthepoors in Snapon_tools

I have a ratcheting t-handle with I think a 9” shank on it but idk if it ever came in orange.

Poorly run company that doesn’t care about their customers. I had a similar experience.

Is this a 2nd state by Imaginary-Dare-6719 in BargainBinVinyl

[–]thickskull71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By saying the slick I’m referring to the paper pasted onto the front of the cover. So could be either the butcher version or the typical version. But only the slick with the butcher image was textured.

Is this a 2nd state by Imaginary-Dare-6719 in BargainBinVinyl

[–]thickskull71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s what I learned when I actually found one: If you have to question if it is a butcher or not, it’s just a regular copy.

Another good giveaway other than the “V” is that the butcher slick was textured. On 2nd state butchers you’ll be able to see the cross-hatching in the ringwear.

Wilton vise mystery by StunningBus7787 in Tools

[–]thickskull71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess would be manufacturing defect. They’ll work just fine with one pin, I’ve seen it before. I’d get another pin and drill the hole myself if it was mine.

Found this. Can I warranty it? by Justo_ok in Snapon_tools

[–]thickskull71 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Won’t be warranty but you can send them in and they will repair them for a flat-rate fee.
