First brought it home. Yikes.

SPOTTED IN THE WILD!
South I5 between Olympia & Tumwater

Speed bleeders (m10x1.00)
1g Rear brake caliper total rebuild
FTP braided brake lines from JNZ

It’s a good weekend so far!

Finally got the FTP braided lines installed and completely bled and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! haven’t road tested as it got hot out and I still need to degrease and wash the car before putting the wheels on but I am happy.

Still need to adjust the ebrake. Additionally I discovered a seized ebrake line on the passenger rear. Rockauto incoming.

Got the rear done today with the last pieces being a bracket system for the rear lines.

Brakes officially done!

Finally installed a 3g Master cylinder to pair with my outlanders. I’ve only bench bled the master and bled all 4 corners; still on jack stands. Letting everything sit and settle - re-bleed all 4 corners and then take it for a test drive.

Tad close to my strut bar and now have to reconfigure my ignition pack placement and extend the fluid sensor.

Just because

Finally got my new coil pack, the old one had a cut up bracket that I could no longer decipher. New coil pack and bracket.

Also mounted the dangling TPU (sp?)

Guessing this was all done to relocate the coil pack, was not done very well nor done in an impressive way; zip tied to the Master Brake reservoir lines is tacky.

Spark plug wires are now managed, coil pack in proper place; PTU mounted where it needs to be mounted.

If you’re referring to the power transistor unit it’s PTU.

Ha… yes the PTU, dyslexia is rough. Had all the letters though.

Finished the weekend replacing the coolant hoses to the heater core & throttle body.

Replaced the CTS and fixed the wiring with convoluted tubing.

Had some weird loose wiring around the alternator, I terminated unused wiring & tucked with convoluted tubing and secured.

Also fixed an air leak from my P port on my throttle body, did a smoke test and glad I did.

Running great and had some help today

NO REVERSE! I’m sad… gotta pull the side cover now. If it isn’t ONE thing it certainly is another.

Threw in a pic I took in Tacoma
