Full annual service video is up!

[@kangarooish72]

Thanks for this tutorial, as new owners of a 95 Hiace 1kz-te this was super helpful.

[@jdmcarandmotorcycle]

You are welcome

[@johnlabine2208]

I think you are the 1st vloger for toyota hi ace 1990-2004 models. Its very helpful to us, owners of toyota hi ace oldies.

[@nathansharma87]

Maybe, I will do other stuff too later on. For now it's just getting my van up to my standards.

[@johnlabine2208]

Are you also planning to change it in full exhaust?

[@nathansharma87]

No my exhaust is fine, I like it.

[@Happy-Hunter89]

New Hiace owner here. Thanks for taking the time to make this quick video. It was extremely helpful!

[@michaelc7392]

Just did my fuel filter after watching this Video . So good explanation and procedure. Crazy dirty fuel . I think still had original filter after 280000km ..cripes ! Everything went as explained on video . Thanks ,much appreciated.

[@davidrumsey3180]

Just want to add my thanks for your time and effort making and uploading this video. Just about to replace my fuel filter on my 96 super custom van. I am a competent home mechanic and would have worked it out, but it is always great to see the steps in advance and know what to look for.... makes you feel more competent. Love the use of the needle nosed pliers ..

[@nathansharma87]

Thanks David appreciate your time. Also someone in this comment section had a bad primer only realising after replacement. I gave him a solution just incase you need.

[@steveseattle140]

This is great! I'm looking forward to replacing all my fluids/filters/etc, so this is a great introduction. The listing of tools needed is also super helpful!

[@nathansharma87]

Thanks Steve, I'm assuming your in Seattle? Plenty of these up those ways nowadays. Don't forget to grease the U joints!

[@jdmcarandmotorcycle]

Easy pisy

[@steveseattle140]

@@nathansharma87 I found a shop where I can rent a lift for $20 an hour, so yes, u-joint greasing is on the table!

Very informative video. I just changed mine on the 1995 2.8L Diesel. It’s never been changed. Very simple to do.

[@mallydawg479]

good stuff mate thank god I watched this first , you have shown the way to greatness lol I have the filter and was starting to scratch my head first to locate the bloody thing and now the full monty , excellent now to do the job yeeeeeks!!!

[@SteveTheBeav]

Awesome video with some great tips! I replaced the fuel filter in my (new to me!) '95 SCL according to your guide here and it was a piece of cake. The only hiccup came when i squirted myself in the face with a bit of diesel when bleeding the air out of that last hose. Dont forget the safety glasses yall!

[@michaelpattie9244]

Great help keep your videos coming

[@jasoncullen3673]

Great tutorial thank you, although I couldn't pump any fuel thru until I undid the screw in the middle of the pump. (at 11.45)

[@Yibai]

Thanks for sharing, great information. Could you please upload some other usual maintenances for this van, like changing disc brake etc?

[@nathansharma87]

Hi mate Thanks! Will do whenever I have to do something on it. For now it's all perfect 😉

[@jr6874]

I did the brake rotors and pads on my super custom van, I'm no mechanic but it was reasonably easy need impact driver or long socket bar big difference I think the brakes a bit warped, big van for little discs, I replaced with genuine+ greased everything up

[@StoicIndifference]

13:26 how are your electronic wirings after getting blasted with break clean? because it seems like you blast everything that engine looks clean clean cleeean

[@nonlocalcommunication6161]

I was able to unscrew the housing from the filter by hand pretty easy after just going around the edge with a screw driver and wedging it up slightly to loosen it.

[@michaelc7392]

Thanks heaps .

[@krishnanbharath51]

Thank you job done ✅ now

[@nastystitch333]

There really aren't very many resources available for the kz100s. I'm at new owner of a super custom 94 turbo diesel and in America. I was able to find a filter for my oil change but would you mind sharing the specific oil type you use for your changes? Thanks so much.

[@nathansharma87]

10W40 or 15W40 if you live in a warmer state. Use only diesel engine oil. Doesn't matter if it's mineral of synthetic, I prefer synthetic or semi synthetic. Make sure the oil is API CF4 certified or its direct replacement equivalent.

[@jonreiswig7686]

Thanks for the video! Do you have any ideas on trouble shooting the windscreen washer system? On my 1993 Hiace neither the rear nor the left front spray even though I can hear the pump motor run.

[@nathansharma87]

They are separate units so the issue won't be connected. In my general experience with cars there could be 4 issues. 1) The nozzle is clogged. 2) Someone put windscreen polish instead of windscreen wash blocking up the nozzle and lines. 3) The internal hose connecting the nozzle has disconnected 4) The motor is worn out even if it's working. I'd look at those things and work my way through.

[@jonreiswig7686]

@@nathansharma87 thanks! What’s the best way to access the hoses and motors?

[@nathansharma87]

Motor should be in the reservoir underneath the car in front of the front passenger wheel for the front windscreen at least. As for the hoses, you'd likely have to remove the glove box and start looking and feeling your way around.

[@jonreiswig7686]

@@nathansharma87 thanks again!

[@1I2am3Dani4]

I just replaced my filter but ran into the following issue: I pre-filled the filter and also topped off both fuel hoses/lines, after assembling everything I started to manually prime the system for at least 5 minutes without the output line connected but the plunger just won´t get hard and no fuel squirts out. When blocking the output with my finger I don´t feel any pressure building up so no additional diesel is being sucked in from the tank. According to some forums the manual priming mechanism can go bad, is there any way to (safely, especially for the engine) prime the system without using the manual priming pump?

[@nathansharma87]

Hey mate, Open the fuel filler cap, leave the fuel to engine hose off the filter. Slowly blow compressed air into the fuel tank from the filler. Use a rag as a seal. Do it until fuel comes out the outlet on the filter. Unfortunately allot of people treat a primer pump as a fix it all magic button. They prime the absolute shit out of it whenever the car won't start and hence it destroys it. You should be able to get a replacement. If your in the states you can try the Hiace owners north America page or amayama or partsouq.

[@1I2am3Dani4]

​@@nathansharma87 Interestingly enough when I submerge both the inlet and outlet connection into a cup of diesel and start pumping there are bubbles rising up from both sides and you can slowly feel some pressure building up (so the pump clearly still is doing something), but as soon as everything is back in the car and all lines are connected it gradually gets softer again with every pump even after "priming" the line from the tank with the compressed air trick.

[@1I2am3Dani4]

@@nathansharma87 So quick update, I primed the system with compressed air and just completely ignored that stupid priming pump. She started right up afterwards (no coughing) and idled without issues for 5 minutes, today I drove around for ~12 miles also without any issues so your tip worked like a charm, thanks a lot!

[@nathansharma87]

Awesome glad your up and running 👌

[@DMRH69]

The H100 diesel is soooo easy for the "Fuel filter" change. Sadly the petrol version 2RZE is sooo painful, hence why I'm searching for advise.....

[@michaelc7392]

Any advice on how to lower idle rpm , 2.8 Diesel . Currently sits just above 1000 , lowers when aircon active .

[@nathansharma87]

Idle adjustment screw on diesel injection pump. Should be 750rpm idle and 900 idle with ac. Might also have AC idle diaphragm to increase rpm automatically. Make sure there is no idle up button inside engaged or manual engine idle up twist knob that's set for high idle first. Don't over fuel it, can run away. Recommend having a diesel tech do it.

[@loganperry8637]

Chur, same filter style at my LH113 mighty L block (3L)

[@jogradramirez6402]

Please make tutorial on oil filter and change oil.

[@nathansharma87]

Working on it buddy. Should be up in a week or two.

[@nathansharma87]

Done, thank you for watching ✌️

[@francois2266]

Hi Nathan, what is the reference for the AT filter please ?

[@nathansharma87]

Lehman Mechanical did the trans service. I think they used Ryco. Just google the transmission number and filter kit, or "a340f filter kit".

[@axenhere1ro]

Awesome...! I’m about to buy a 95 Hiace with a 1KZ -TE 3.0L engine here in United States, and this video is very helpful to me..! Can you tell me the item number of the timing belt kit.? Please....

[@miked8866]

Hey there! Just ought one of those myself last month. Just FYI for resources, toyodiy.com is great for part numbers lookup, and there's a reliable international forum ( hiace-super-custom.forumotion.com/), and Roamer out of Seattle is a great resource for suspension, belts, hoses help, etc.

[@tonymontana897]

Is the fuel filter location the same for a 2003 model Hiace or is this one specific to your "import" model ?

[@nathansharma87]

If it has a 1kz it should be the same. Regardless of what engine or filter location changing the fuel filter should be the same so long as it's the same spin on type of filter.

[@Tryyourhand]

It’s diesel not EFI!

What?
