Two things I noticed about your truck in this video is that when you started it it made a lot of clunking noises until it built oil pressure which could be your timing chain or your timing chain tensioner not working properly and also change the transmission fluid to redline mt90, it will make a huge difference in how it shifts and it also should fix your problem with going into first gear. It's expensive oil but it's cheaper than a tranny rebuild. Another note on the timing chain tensioner if you are using an oil filter that doesn't have an anti drain back valve it can cause the tensioner and chain to rattle until it completely fills back up with oil on startup. This causes premature wear on the plastic timing chain guides and will eventually break them. A lot of the cheaper oil filters like fram do not have these valves so spending the money on the OEM filter or a mobile1 or k&n gold is completely worth the cost.
I appreciate the knowledge, Ill definitely change to mt90. One of my buddies and I were trying to diagnose the rough start and clacking. I do use OEM oil filters. I hear the clacking while accelerating and cruising as well, just not at idle. Could the timing chain be causing that noise while driving, or would that only make sense while its building oil pressure?
@@kennysjunk7981 broken chain guides could be making all the noise. You can remove your valve cover and take a look down the timing cover and see if the guides are broken or have lots of movement. Also look on the distributer side of the timing cover to see if the chain has been scratching against it. This is a sure sign that the guides must be replaced. If you do replace them get the kit that has steel backed guides so you never have to worry about it again. And when you replace the timing chain tensioner (it comes with the kits) don't over torque the bolts that hold it because it can cause the tensioner to bind. I used blue loctite and torqued to spec. Also the pieces of the old guides will be down in your oil pan and it's up to you if you want to remove them or not. The oil screen will keep those pieces from going through the engine but you might want to drop the pan while you're at It. It can be a pretty involved job but it's not as hard as it seems if you stay organized with all your bolts. It might also not be a bad idea to check your valve clearances while you have the valve cover off. Make sure to do it while the engine is hot and try to do it quickly Intake is set to .008 and exhaust is set to .012. also removing spark plugs first makes turning the motor over much easier when rotating it to TDC on cyl1 then cyl4. Remove distributer cap to see which cylinder is at TDC. It's a really easy job once you wrap your head around it. Pretty sure the only tools you need are a spark plug socket, 19mm socket and ratchet, 12mm wrench and socket, flathead screwdriver and set of feeler gauges.
Also I just wrecked my mint low mileage 1989 yesterday and now I have to cut the parts truck up to do some body work. I actually cried when I towed the truck home and saw the damage. I guess I'll be learning how to do body work soon enough because I need to replace part of the drivers inner fender where the air box goes and also the radiator core support is completely destroyed along with bumper and valence/radiator/condenser and driver's core support frame mount. Some idiot stopped on a 2 lane bridge and caused a pile up. Wish me luck 😢
@@PewLand Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. I seriously appreciate all of the advice, ill probably have my buddy who is a bit more knowledgable than I help me out with it. Ill let you know how it all goes!
I love the truck dude! I have a 92 that I'm working on, its got a few dents and imperfect things but I'm working on getting it as clean as yours lmao. Also idk if that's just with most 89-95 Toyota pickups but my 1st gear is a bit annoying when it wants to be.
o All you need to do is put 6 inch speakers in the doors as those 2 dash speakers are garbage & no rear speakers. I had that truck & the 4 cyl L22 motor i got 273k on it before truck rotted out. Only thing I hate is you have to unlock the hub at the wheel to get it in 4 wheel drive which is a pain. Timing belt needs to changed 100k or before as they snap.
I had a ‘94 reg cab 4x4 w/ 5sp. God I miss that truck!
Man, trucks from the 80s and 90s are so pretty!
Beautiful truck.
Awesome truck man!!! It's perfect, wheels/tires/repaint with decals, so good!
Thanks man, I appreciate it!
😮 beautiful truck🎉❤

What’s the mileage on the beauty now?
What are the size of the tires? Love the color and the roll bar. Sweet ride!
