I'd probably move the throttle by hand from the engine bay and see if the revs go up smoothly. It does sound like it could be the TPS.

Acetone will usually take silkscreening off without too much effort. I've only used it on metal parts however.

Replaced my passenger cv, half shaft and hub today. No more pop pop pop in 4wd. I'll save the other side for another day.

Yours will probably be fine, they look like a high grade bolt. I just took my passenger hub off today for the first time and they came off easily.

Spray some penetrating oil in there and give it some taps with a hammer.

The front driveshaft is always turning as well though, with wheel rotation. The noise is sort of a pop-pop-pop, and seems to be one pop per tire rotation. I jacked up the front and rotated the wheels, no funny noises anywhere, of course! There does seem to be a fair bit of lateral play in...

I had a good look and all boots are in good shape. The knocking/clicking noise is rotational and seems to be with each wheel rotation under load in 4wd. With the driveshaft spinning much faster, I'm leaning towards axle cv or something with the half shaft. My wife said she could hear the...

After a couple days of offroading I think mine is done as well. I'm just trying to decide whether it's the front driveshaft (~3 years old) or one of the front axle CV's (original). I'm getting a loud click, that I can feel in the footwell, with each tire rotation only when in 4wd under load...

It's a defective parking brake design and should have been a recall years ago.

Wow..

What's the rational behind changing the gas cap so often? Mines 11 years old..

Why not just go with 75w-90 synthetic if you're not towing then?

I've had SMP coils in for a couple years and tried both Bosch platinums and NGK coppers and can't tell any difference, other than the platinums last longer.

Great job causing a crash! You showed him! :winner_third_h4h:

You can get Penzoil Platinum Ultra on sale at CT or Parts Source and do the current mail-in rebate for another $10 off.

Impressive!

Sounds like the heater core is mostly plugged.

Did the wheel turn easily when you jacked it up? (assuming you have an open diff)

Napa saying they have the best pads on their comparison chart? No kidding! ;)

I'd probably grind the screw heads off with a dremel to get the IAC off, then try and unscrew them. Worse case pick up a throttle body from the junk yard. The idle staying steady when turning the wheels is normal, you don't want it surging up and down from a minor load..
