    Hello all happy to be here.
    I just purchased a 1990 Second Gen 4Runner SR5 and Iam stokked! It does have a few issues and Iam hoping to find some help and answers on this forum. Here are the details and some pictures.
    1990
    4x4 4 door
    30 V6 HI-PRO engine (previous owner put it in at 215,000 on the odometer it currently has 241,000) Engine was constructed byu EPM Machine in Portland Oregon, they claim 190HP and 210 FT torque which seems a little high to me does anyone else have this engine.
    Downey Off Road Coils
    OME shocks in rear
    Bilstein shocks in front
    tinted windows
    31/10.5.15 BF Goodrich Tires

    Here are the issues,
    Idles really inconsistent occasionally it will die at standstill unless i give it a little gas
    The exhaust pipe was completely rusted through where the rear pipe connects to the muffler. For a temporary fix I cut a few inches off muffler and stuck the rear pipe back into the whole then wrapped it with that TIGER Black exhaust tape a few times then clamped it with exhaust clamp. This helped a lot, but I think the air intake or the Idle air flow valve is clogged. That's my best guess does anyone else have any ideas on how to fix this.
    I have bough a cherry bomb m80 muffler i plan to install, has anyone had any experience with these. thank you for all the help!!!
    also it didnt specify if there was a lift kit on it or just the upgraded shocks. It obviously is sitting 2-3 inches higher then stock at least what do you guys think based on the pics?
