    Naw, He's still driving great! He idles around 1,000 rip-ums, but I think that's more due to the venting codes than anything else. Drove him tonight.

    No fuel smell that I've noticed. I'll have bruce take a look at him, and do the below if possible.

    Not sure how valuable this information is but I figured I'd share- I never had any idling issues, even with P0441 and 446 present. It always ran totally normally.

    Weird, his lights have been flickering again. Might be electrical on the idle. Could also be the heater I've been running too. Just remembered that. Pewp.

    Just a follow up on this repair.
    I went for a 5 min cruise to see how the new shocks felt. I didn't have very high expectation just because she is sprung so hard/high. The roads I chose weren't very bumpy but I could tell it was just slightly more refined, but nothing drastically better. When it will maybe come into play is when we use her for the move/loaded, and depending on our location.... dirt roads, washboard bumps will be better tamed. And I plan on getting an ORV sticker and taking her out on state land a bit. You know, just to go look for some trouble. My Little lady says I'll be doing that alone :cool:. I have some ideas though... like I'm pretty sure she won't just jump out of a moving truck if I unexpectedly turn down a dirt two track. She's going to love it, she just doesn't know it yet :rofl:

    I haven’t gotten around to it. I need to change out inner and outer tie rods and get through inspection by the end of the month.

    I been doing transmission drain n fills every two or three oil changes. I think I've done two on each tundra so far. Maybe three on the 03.

    My camry would shift really eratically, I guess the reliance on the speed sensor is different between the two.
