According to Toyota forum, replacing the fuel pump was the right thing to do.

I have never imagined I will see an engine with 4 different spark plug like the one you took out from that Toyota.

Tell the customer never to go back to his old mechanic.
Don’t blame the mechanics, most time when you tell a customer one or two cylinders are misfiring the next solution they give to you is buy just one or two spark plugs

P107B – Tacoma/Highlander 2017 – 2022 – Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor (Low)/ Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor ‘B’ Circuit/Stuck Range Performance


This codes comes for these 2 brands and on diagnostic tools it might show different narration.

Had a Tacoma with high MPG. Scanning shows P107B, which is fuel related issues. After series of test driving I told the customer to opt for full Tune up Service @122k miles. Which includes replacing all these parts;

Spark plugs
Servicing the Noozle
Air Filter
Replacing the Fuel Rail Pressure sensor
Replacing the Fuel Pump and Filter
Draining the Engine oil and filter
Brake Pads
After Tuneup the code was reset and also driven to see if it will come back up, but for close to 45minutes of driving within the possible scenarios it was confirmed to be ok and the MPG is back to normal.

Camry 2002 Model Persistent Power Steering Issue

Toyota Camry 2002 model also known as big daddy was brought in with complaints from customer of having to apply some pressure to turn the steering at start up or even traffic.

After changing the pump 4 times and pressure hose and the serpentine belt also from different mechanics with no changes, the steering only soften up when on motion.

Diagnosis

I have to lift the car front wheel on an axle stand then start the car and turn the steering which was also hard even when the tyres are off the ground.

Steering rack
Steering pump

Solutions

After replacing the steering rack and pump and all other procedures are taken I personally drove the car it was different and relaxing until I put on the AC while driving and the RPM drops to 400, the steering goes a bit hard anytime I was standstill.

At this point I decided to perform Tuneup service which includes cleaning

The throttle body
Plugs
Noozle
Fuel filter
Air filter
After the tuneup the RPM jumps back to 700 after loading which makes the steering turning more enjoyable.

Greetings to all Auto experts here.
My 2AZ Engine is shorting oil and there is sign of oil in the radiator. Looking at the cost of replacing the engine, should I rebuild the engine and if I rebuild, will it last long?

Please advise me.
The rebuilding depend on your mechanic. But my own professional advice will be to change the engine totally. Good day

Please my first car is on the way to Naija, I want to know the best engine oil, transmission oil and coolant for 2012/2013 Toyota corolla, so that I will stick to it for better performance and long lasting.

Kindly advice, I will be reading comments.

Thanks
Professionally I will advice you to use synthetic prolly 5W30 of any good product. Also you can add Polytron to the oil

For transmission you will be using Toyota WS

For coolant I already sent you two products.

Car TalkRe: Coolant For Camry 2011 by Blackbishop(m): 11:42am On May 10, 2025
Go for either and make sure it’s the original.

Also make sure no leakage in your cooling system before putting the coolant

As much I don’t support his opinion of taking salt as people tends to over do in such cases, basically the truth also lies in the fact that when you have a high blood pressure saline water is the first aid administered to the patient.
even though at a registered proportion but he ain’t lying also.

Honda Accord 2009 Excessive Oil Shortage

Had a customer complain about his Honda accord 2009 oil shortage and other issues with the driving.

1. Top up oil twice before the next oil change (6000 miles) - using synthetic oil
2. Sluggish in movement

Diagnosis

After running a scan and physical check also driving to recreate the instances - check engine light was complaining of Catalyst below threshold and the sluggish response was like something blocking the exhaust.


Solution

Replacing the piston and rings
Replacing the Catalyst and oxygen sensors

RX 330 with locked up wheel at start up.

Solution
Replacing the ABS module and all the wheel speed sensor was all that was needed

The game was just pure experience over tactics. What do you expect from a coach from fey who happens to play this kind of game with top team when it comes to tough game like this as a feyenoord coach.

I never expect Liverpool to park bus and during Kloop we no dey park bus
