Funny this got bumped today. The 1 rig I thought was good for now stared missing and threw a cel for #3 misfire. It's got near 350k miles so I shouldn't be surprised, but the timing just seems to always be the worst. Hopefully it's so stupid like a plug wire or Injector and not a hole in the piston
Everything I have is a project.
81 Toyota: new to me crawler, just did a thrash fest to build a family cage and mount seats for 5. Took it to trail hero and beat it pretty good, it still drives, but needs a bunch of work
87 samurai: supposed to be a little redneck sxs. Has 32s and basic up grades. Was chasing a wierd fuel starvation issue and finally just threw a $600 fuel tank at it. Fixed that issue, but the last time I drove it, it randomly died. Was not out of fuel and wouldn't restart untill it sat for a bit? Starts right up now, but don't want to get stranded somewhere....
82 Toyota: stock truck that I got from my mom, was the truck I came home from hospital in. Hasn't ran in years and probably needs everything gone through.
99 suzuki sidekick: hacked it up to put 1 tons and 40-42s on. Lost motivation and not its a parts shed with 60s tacked under it
97 f350: 7.3 was great for the last 10 years. Made it to 340k before eating a hole between the cyl and water jacket. Could have probably drove it another 10 years with a $1k 7.3 and $500 in parts, but I'm an idiot and decided to dive into a 12v cummins swap. It's mostly kinda done, just need to button up a bunch of details.
Various dirtbikes: wife's crf150f is great, my only 300xc is decent, probably needs some love. The kids bikes are pretty rough. Kx65 needs something fixed with the front brakes, then yesterday it really puked a loot of spooge out the pipe for some reason. Pw50 is OK, but is really weak. Ttr50 is hammed to shit. Gave up on the estart a along time ago, but it's really easy to push start, so meh.
The other problem is I have no where to store them. I can put them in the garage, but it fills it. I really want to get a small enclosed that they live in full time with gear, fuel, tools, ect. Then it's just hook up and go. Stupid trailers are like double what they were though.
The wife's 15 F150 is mostly problem free
knock on wood but I'm not sure I trust anything newer all that much.
Oh and the 96 4runner was the one "older" rig that didn't need anything. Been a daily for a while. Until today, crossing my fingers it doesn't need an engine.
