The 94 intermittently does a no crank no start. When it doesn’t do it, it starts up great and normal. Was reading because of where and how the oil filter sits, you can easily drip oil on the starter when changing it, and mess with and wear the contacts, and result in what is exactly happening with mine.
It would make sense since I unfortunately because of time sake (2.5yr old takes all my time) got my oil changed at Valvoline. Which I’m sure they wouldn’t care to take any preventive measures to get any oil on the starter.
Am I out to lunch, or is their any bit of validity to this?

It is! I waited around for months. Got it it from a guy who inherited from his mom, who got sick in 94 and had never bought a new car and decided to buy this. Technically a 1 owner lol

Thanks for the input I can now fully relate to all you described. Found them under the seat. Going to give them a try tomorrow. Had no luck with my Frankenstein spark plug socket extension set up lol.

Changing plugs and wires on my 3.3.
#6 is notoriously hard to remove and replace. Did some research online and several people were saying there is a spark plug removal tool that comes factory under the seat along with the jack.
Can anyone confirm this?

@Slartibartfast possible it could be the tps sensor going bad or seated properly? Drove it today for a short minute and was shifting fine.
Also this video really helped. Someone commented about there’s not shifting right when their tps wasn’t seated properly. -
Thank you!

Yeah fluid level color and smell are good.

My 99 XE's transmission just started severely slipping. Started on the free way. If I would step off the gas completely, then lightly step back on, assuming a healthy transmission would stay in the same gear, it would temporarily downshift, then return to 5th , or overdrive. Then it quickly got worse, instead of downshifting it would slip and act like it was in neutral. By the time I got to work, it was hardly able to stay in any gear without slipping. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with anything electrical given that it seemed to come on so suddenly. Any thoughts?

No problem. For personal peace of mind I would change it. And maybe change it twice like he mentioned. I know there is controversy on a total flush loosening things and causing more problems than solving anything, and I would agree with that. In my personal conclusion 2 changes contrary to a single flush and then using LubeGard is a safe bet.

If you get a locker in the back, you’ll see that thing surprise everybody you wheel with. i’ve been with 2wd tacoma’s that have a stock e-locker and they amaze me every time.

Do you know of a e locker brand and model that would be good for my rig? -
Running the radials until they’re bald. A little offset too.

I was having intermittent hard 1-2, and on the freeway when I’d step off gas and then lightly get back on (not enough to downshift) it’s like it would 1/2 downshift for a second and then go back to o/d or 5th. Comparable to a shudder I guess. Both issues have cleared up immensely.

Yep, the stock setup is more of a cold air intake since it draws air from outside the engine bay. The air gets quite warm in that small space between the exhaust manifold and radiator that the so called cold air intakes put the filter.
The stock airbox does a good job of keeping water out as long as you don't go deeper than the top of the tires. If water is a concern, a snorkel is the best route. My old Pathfinder uses a K&N filter in the stock airbox. I have done water crossings up to my headlights with no problems pulling water into the engine.
I’m finding out more and more people using the stock air box. Living in the northwest you run into water crossing without even leaving the pavement lol

Thanks for the great advice. I will give that a try. The ignition switch seems more plausible. The whole key tumblr is quite loose in the steering column
