This model was one-time fail and throw in the trash over-temp protection device. I'm guessing the MFG logic is, "If it over-temps, something's failed, it's going to over-temp again, it's a fire hazard, so permanently kill it, liability problem solved. Next!" Since fixing mine and putting up the video I've used the hell out of it, no problems.

@robrig1646 Yea.. I have fuse ordered but looking now I think change to thermal fuse was a quick fix for reason you said.. Corsori had massive recalland maybe it preempted change to fuse..... The whole thing is plastic box, so yea fail once, fail forever maybe was just their mind

I got the car with 180,000 miles, I want to say it really starting running bad by 220,000 miles. It's been a while so I can't remember exactly, bought it in 2018, 6 years ago.

@@robrig1646 Thank you, that gives me an idea! 😎👍

If you have teh same model, then get the same fuse I describe in the video (I can't recall what that was off the top of my head) I think I ordered some from Amazon?

Thank you.

Glad to hear you got yours fixed

I cleaned my EGR system cooler, tubes, and valve a few months prior to cleaning the intake passages, didn't see any reason to pull those off and clean again. Having previously cleaned those parts and the roughness coming back is what lead me to pull the intake manifold and discover the passages blocked with crap

Examine the sensor very closely and see what numbers or mfg logo/name is on it and Google search from there. I got my fuse number directly off the fuse, it took a bit of searching but I figured out what I needed. That's the best I can do to answer your question.

Did better; I traded in the truck.

Yeah, let us know what the symptoms were and how you fixed the problem.

You took the time to type all that out to be an ass.

I wanted to get the back story. You should get some sleep or do whatever it takes to simmer down

Glad you liked it. That was my intent, going into detail on ringing out the wiring and methodically checking things one at a time; people have a problem or read a code, go to Google, read somebody's comment where they say "I just changed part XYZ and it fixed my problem", so they go out and blow money on part XYZ, and it doesn't fix the problem. Even though it made for a longer video (I got complaints on that), I figured it wouldn't hurt to talk through all my symptoms (I know 'blah blah blah'), because other people will be looking for more info than just "my truck was running rough" or "makes a funny noise". I also discussed what was going though my head because with these problems we all have these 'why/what if/ maybe' type thoughts trying to get a grasp on the problem. Is it one thing? Multiple things? Bad gas? Full moon? Finally walking people through the troubleshooting/elimination process so they could better understand that it can be tedious and takes time to properly diagnose; there's quite a few 'wham bam thank you ma'am" videos that give people the impression that fixing engine problems on cars is easy. I'm not trying to throw shade on anybody for taking the time to make a video with the intent of helping others, it takes work, and they're not all bad, but somebody watching those videos who's having trouble fixing a problem may get discouraged because their car problem is kicking their ass and not as easy to solve as the video made it look.

Pressure washer? Hmmm... I'll have to give that a try next time. Because you know, there will be a next time.

I hear ya. I have a Western Electric, all metal fan, the kind little kid's could stick their fingers in, 70 years old, still runs like new.

Have you done the work yet? let us know what you found.

@@robrig1646 I did the job, EGR valve and especially the cooler were really dirty! But the issue was too much oil in engine, that screwed the spark plugs, that's why car was rattling (and shutting off) as soon as engine kicked in... I had to find out and fix it myself, idiots at Toyota never had a clue!

@@dmarinon That's good news. I replaced my original engine with a JDM engine. I tore down the old engine and found all the piston oil control rings clogged. I now make sure I change my oil every time the change oil light comes on regardless of the oil manufacturer's claims of "15,000 miles". I also started adding 8 oz of Marvel Mystery Oil at each oil change. You're probably still gonna get oil through the engine from the PCV system. My old engine was getting oil in the intake and new engine did the same, so I added an oil catch can between the PCV and intake manifold. If anything, start using Marvel in your oil, it'll help reduce and clean build up on the rings. It's pretty cheap preventive medicine.

Yeah, I know. Sometimes I don't know when to stop. My old boss used to start gesturing with his hand and give me the "hurry up and get to the point" look, but he could never say I didn't tell him everything he needed to know about the problem.

Don't remember, I did this jib over 3 years ago

Have you troubleshot the problem or are just guessing and throwing parts at it?

@robrig1646 considering it went out, wouldn't turn on despite everything I tried before considering opening up? I think I have the same problem as yourself with your frier (I even have the exact same model!). I found the right thermal fuses you put in, I just need links to the crimps and heat shrinks so I can get myself back to frying fries and chicken patties ^^;

@@PongPogPonderan Heat shrink I got from work, I think I show the packaging the crimps came in on the video. Here's Amazon link. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0966MSZSV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
