    Roof top tents

    I had the maggiolina airtop on my 80, loved it for the setup speed. I didn’t have any issues with feeling claustrophobic, but I can understand some people may. My main issue with the setup was the lack of shelter in bad weather, yes i had an awning but still not good in the wind and rain.

    AC issue with a simple solution but Garages scared me off.

    I would ask the question, “where is the refrigerant leak? In my experience if the system error is due to low pressure, 9 times out of 10 it’s due to a leak.

    Bio fuel, good or bad?

    Bio content in diesel is not good for rubber seals/hoses, nor does it have the same lubrication properties

    Black oil immediately after oil change and refill and engine clean up

    No need to use Toyota oil, Toyota do not refine oil. Use a quality oil, that meets or exceeds the recommended Toyota specification.
