You need to know if the trans fluid is world standard I beleave it is if there is no dip stick it is WS and needs no service until 100.000 mi If the injectors are bad the check engine lite will come on A good injector through the fuel tank will do I like the BG products at dealers only Coolant should be tested.

When the alarm is sounding turn the drivers door lock (with the key) twice the alarm should disarm

I am taking it too dealer on 26 May 2009 and they are telling me the 100,000 mile maintenance package is going to cost me $1,200. Any thoughts? Besides the Timing Belt should anything have to be changed. Thanx for any help....

They typically suggest the water pump as well do to its location relative to the timing belt. I had both replaced 110K on a 1994 4-cly Honda Accord that lasted till 188K with no problems before I traded it in for the 2006 4Runner. I got tired of driving the Accord - it's probably still running. If you're not keeping it for a while, then maybe just replace the timing belt to save cost.

95 Toyota 4Runner - replacing rear bumper, will other years fit?

I've 'inherited' a 1995 Toyota 4Runner and need to replace the rear bumper to pass inspection. We want to start with local junkyards, but we don't have many.
Any easy way to tell what other year models have a (rear) bumper that could take the place of the '95?

1990 - 1995 bumpers & bumper ends will fit your 1995 4Runner.
If you can't find a junked one, they're also available as OE replacements at various auto body parts sites on line.

First, thanks! (Although I was hoping for a bigger selection of recent years. Can't argue with reality, though!)
Do you know what changed in 95 that makes later models different?

1996 is the 3rd Gen of 4Runners, with a MAJOR redesign! It looks similar, but has an all-new body shell and chassis - instead of the truck it used to be, it shares a chassis with the Land Cruiser. There are interior changes and a new engine, too, which they put in all the the Tacomas at the same time.
My first 4Runner was a 1998, then I fell under the spell of the total redesign in 2003. I'll stick with this one until the end, though. And I still feel a bit wistful when I see the early trucks on the road ....
