#4 of 184 adc100 - Spark Plug by paul_p Jan 02, 2002 (7:43 pm)
Actually I had not thought of that - I sometimes forget the simple things! I'll be at 150,000 miles for the next tune up and will replace both the plug wires and distributor cap. I had replaced only the cap before and it did not seem to make a difference, but perhaps new wires will.   Thanks!     - Paul
#5 of 184 synthetic oil by mkstring Mar 26, 2002 (11:30 am)
I just went synthetic in my '92 Xtra cab V6 4x2 (at 60,000). With a Toyota recommended change at 5000/7500, should synthetic extend that any?? Any ideas on recommended filter change schedule given that synthetics are "cleaner" by nature?? I figured that synth would be a way to even prolong the life i expect out of the truck, given their reputations...   I've owned it for just over a year and the reputation his holds for its reliability. It's amazing that the little guy (I can see called a truck a girl) is 10 years old already....
#6 of 184 '02 DC TRD wheel flares...cheapest factory parts? by human_guise May 13, 2002 (1:01 pm)
Well, thanks to a brain fart I managed to put a big fat gouge in the front right-hand plastic wheel arch trim on my '02 Taco double cab. It scraped on the edge of a trailer in the garage, as I was backing out. I am pretty certain that I can replace it myself (since it bolts on), but don't want to get raped by the local dealers. Anyone know where I can order such a factory part on-line? Thanks! Replies to this message: ase1gearhd (Jun 15, 2005 10:04 pm)

Try doing a Yahoo search on Toyota of Richardson, Texas. They answered an e-mail for me once and seemed tech-friendly.      - Paul
#9 of 184 tire pressure for 265/70R16's by 02dctaco Nov 03, 2002 (4:52 pm)
My 2 month old 2002 4x4 DC came with Bridgestone 265/70R16's. What's the recommended PSI for my tires. The truck will be used mainly on the pavement.   The sticker in the door jamb has settings for a 225/75R15 tire - nothing about my tires.   - bill
#10 of 184 tire pressure for 265/70R16's by tacoma4me Nov 04, 2002 (6:54 am)
I have an 02 DC 4x4 also, and my sticker shows for both tire sets. The 265/70R16's show a pressure of 26 for front and back. I have questioned such a low pressure with several tire dealerships, and they all think it is too low for normal on road use. They recommended 30-32 typical. I have been running 32 and have not seen any unusual tread wear in about 10k miles. I rotate every 5k sofar.
#11 of 184 1997 Tacoma 4wd, regular cab by 615694 Nov 04, 2002 (4:14 pm)
I just bought this one, but it didn't have an owners manual and neither did the dealer. Any suggestions on how to get one?   I've owned 4 Toyotas and driven over 400,000 miles with no breakdowns so there will be more!
#12 of 184 Owner's Manual by toyotaken Nov 04, 2002 (4:36 pm)
You should be able to order one from the parts department from the dealership.
