Agreed, if I'm filling washer fluid jugs, it will be for a water or water/meth injection setup.

Did a compression test 310 psi 310 psi 290 psi 290 psi Truck still goes very good but the lower limit is 350 psi. Compression test results can be affected by numerous factors: -engine temp -was throttle held open or closed when testing -tester used (may not all read the same) -atmospheric pressure ...

Water in the diesel filter should trigger a dash light, but you can try draining from the bottom of the filter housing anyways. When was the diesel filter last changed?

Does anyone have pics of a 3" dumptube for a KZN185 they could post? Looking into having one made for my '96 Surf, and looking for some pics to help us along. There are very few of these trucks over here, so nobody has experience with them.

265/75/16'S fit my '96 with very minor rubbing when turning and going over bumps. Fixed by fitting '99 tall springs (4runner).

An exhaust leak would only cause power loss on a turbo diesel if it was pre-turbo.
