Hello everyone, I am a new owner of 1986 toyota Itasca 19 ft, I'd like to now few things about the new buy.
The motor home is in OK condition, I got it in Nevada, it was sitting in the desert for 10 years, but it's ok, it has 90 000 miles on it.
The engine is a bit noisy, drives good, I make 300 miles from Las Vegas back to LA with no problem.
Before I make my first trip to LA, I put some Seafoam to engine oil and put a fuel injector cleaner in a fuel tank.
RV is little slow but I can easily get 65 mph on freeway and up the hill from 1000 ft to 5000 ft on I-15 about 40 mph.
I want to do some TLC, fix engine noise looks like valves or chain tensioner or exhaust gasket.
Also I need to prepare truck to pass California smog check.
What kind of engine oil I should I use
is spark plug gap 0.030 is ok,
what kind diff oil, (regular or synthetic)
how much in rear axle 6 lug
I have PDF service Shop manual for 1988 Toyota hilux truck/ 4runner, can I follow it all the way, or because I have RV, based on Toyota truck the specs is little different.
Thank you.
