depends on if my wife and daughter are with me , on my own ACDC , Metallica and hard rock , if i have the family with me things are a bit more subdued

Hey Prince you put that photo up as much as you like the girls could technically be hood ornaments lol

mines a 4x4 its not supposed to be clean !!!!

Sorry Bobz cant remember how to check them (o2 sensors ) but if you google it you should find out , other option is to just replace them as they are not to expensive , then its problem solved or crossed off the list

:)No problems Bobz am interested in most 4x4s

Hi and welcome , there is a 4x4 section to this forum if you are interested

Hey Bobz , try these , Dead O2 sensor Fuel lines on around the wrong way Stale fuel Timing wrong Tappets set wrong Back to basics first but on the air flow meter is a plug that can be pulled out and there's a mixture adjustment under. But dirty injectors or a dicky ECU can cause the same thing

I already have my dream car , 1991 SSR-G Hilux 4x4 Surf , powered by a Lexus V8
