Truck tree a code, p0333, knock sensor fault. Most of the time it’s allegedly rodent damage to the harness, and I currently have a bit of a rodent issue so seems logical.
How does one diagnose the issue? Pulling nearly the entire top of the engine off, yay! $3500 dealership job, or I drink beer and handle it. Leaning toward the beer option.

follow the sensor
most of those things are replaceable as individual pigtails that plug into the main harness
what truck? That's not usually an internal mount.
The pigtail is a $30 part, but it’s under the intake with a connection right in the middle of the valley so you can swap it without removing the intake and all that’s entailed there, hence the crazy dealer labor cost.
Unlikely it’s the sensor itself, but that requires the head to be removed for access. Allegedly with the right bend on a wrench it can be done without removing the head, so if it comes down to it I have a torch and a wrench to sacrifice. Manual says pull the whole engine, car engineers are dumb.
1Gr-fe motor, thing has been pretty solid for 184k miles and if this is rat damage I guess I can’t fault Toyota for the failure just the serviceability issues. At least it runs basically fine so I can deal with it next weekend.
that's the same motor I've got in a tacoma

Those are on top which is where my squirrels live. I'd just replace that and see if you can keep the code off. Cheap and worth a shot. No point in stressing until you know it's something further up the line IMO.
edit: oh right.......

Add new suspension and tires+wheels.
I'd love to try one with a 2.5 Subie engine.
i like the boxeer diesel swap...
I've spent far too much time reading and researching torsion free mounting for someone who will likely never need that knowledge.
Though keep us updated on the final design, I'd love to see where you land.

and don’t EVER drive in easterm Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Western North Dakota, etc, if there is the slightest breeze…
Sounds like we are going to be crossing each other on the highway. Another option for you is Rigaud. Not a bad way to spend a few hours. They *might* be running the lifts on the Thanksgiving weekend...Yeah was looking at riding lifts, as its a 7 hour drive from Bromont to where I'm going, so that'd make it a little easier to do.
Your description of Kanata sounds exactly like the trails around Bracebridge. You bust balls going up and down, there's no let up and a short ride feels like it was much longer.
I've also read a few good things about Forest Lea, maybe that'll be an option, depending where I camp that night.
I'm going to be leaving Bromont Friday night and will try to make it to somewhere around Ottawa to sleep for the night. Then up early and continue driving on Saturday, stopping somewhere to ride for an hour or two.
I just got back from a lunch loop. 1.5 hour ride, glorious conditions (29°C - 84°F), only a few leaves down, but the colours were spectacular, and best of all was very few people out on the trail. perfect! missed a meeting, but no regrets. I can catch up later.

Oh yeah that spot, I remember driving past there a long time ago.
Sadly it looks like only the leaf eaters get to ride the lift.
:edit: not sadly, they have a vanlifer spot in their parking lot. Maybe thats where I'll spend the night...
:edit2: nope, they say they lock the gates nightly. Whats the point of having a "vanlifer spot" next to the parking lot then?

I think I'm going to try to get to Calabogie. I added most of the trails behind the ski hill to trailforks today and it looks like I'll be able to get in a short loop with a nice big descent at the end, with some opportunity for some dicking around and hike a biking.

I paid $75 for Social D and bitched the whole time. She regrets not getting the Walla Walla tickets a few years back. I think it will be good, but I will never be comfortable with $200 concert tickets.
Sprintering through those states ain't that fun either. You know, hands at noon and four.
Wow, a guy was coming but to give an estimate on the work in the front yard. He said "You want me to grab my guys and do it today?" Holy hell, 4 dudes showed up and knocked it out in 2 hours. Power tools, damn. It was $350, I gave each dude $20.
What was the work?
My dog acts weird when I get sick, and usually before I realize it.
nose bleed seats were $75 when the OG misfits lineup rolled through a few years back. as cool as that would have been, i decided glenn can eat shit.
younger brother had a vw vanagon westy in colorado....all the aerodynamics of a barn on wheels....
gotta lean into it...
glad i didn't. i heard after the fact that the sound quality was more or less non-existent. just noise.
Went to a show at the WaMu " theater" Sunday, which is little more than an empty high ceiling warehouse. Surprisingly the sound was top notch. A bunch of acoustic curtains in the right place does good work.
This was at the Roseland, so I was upper deck. There isn't really a bad seat in that joint, but it's also small. Black Flag played at Revolution Hall for some reason.
im happy i have not experienced a muddy sounding show in awhile...
There has been a bit of a revolution in sound reinforcement in the last few years. The new array systems are time aligned accurately, and self adjust in real time. We have lost some dynamic range and instrument imaging (most of the new systems are ‘basically’ mono beyond stage bleed). There has been an increase in compression to achieve some of this.
But the new systems sound absolutely amazing to 90% of the crowd, even in crappy venues. Bass has also gotten tighter and less ‘muddy’ through some technological advancements in cabinets and drivers.

Don’t blame the medium, blame the source material. Like it or not, Owsley was truly a genius.
I'm literally blaming the source material for no matter the medium, will always sounds like shit
