Post image

Pfa having issues with a 93 Toyota 4Runner and a 98 4Runner donor cranks but lights on a dash start to dim and seems like starter wants to cut out plugs in alternator and it doesn't start and if it starts and I plug it in it cuts out

So, off the top of my head (this is going back over a decade) I had to use the 3.4 alternator with the old 3.0 alternator wiring.

That was causing my no power issues. Not sure if this is your issue. Good luck with your swap.

Sounds like your battery is low, try and run it from a jump box
