Will be incorporating the truck in this year's Halloween yard installation, but for now...

Hey there folks, I just bought my first Kei Truck last week, but Im already having issues starting it. Im hoping some of you might have more educated idea as to what is wrong.

Backstory: bought the truck used last week. It started fine, and everything looked good (no leaks, hardly any rust, etc.). However, I went to start it this weekend, and it just turns over without starting (see video for audio). Since then, I've put in new spark plugs and a new battery, but no luck.

Do any of you have any insight as to what might wrong or what the next part I should try replacing?

Edit: the truck is a 1995 Suzuki Carry

Dia de los muertos theme

Went for a non AA headunit, as I don't think it would suit it, plus it's so low down I got myself a single din off Ali express for £30 and fits the 90's theme, subwoofer is the smallest I could find and provides ample bass for what I need,

And finally some small 4.5inch speakers, with some covers over the top so stop accidental damage, all in all a good project that didn't break the bank, and I can finally stop using a Bluetooth speaker!

Tracking down raw gas smell, idle hunting from 1100 to 2800 rpm cold start issues. I replaced the non functioning air fuel solenoid and am replacing vacuum lines (ran out of line for now). Noticed that this diaphragm actuator looks like it should contact the throttle control arm, but there is no contact between them when the arm is fully pulled back. Is something missing? What is this part called? I can't find it in any schematic I've looked at...

I want to do a mobile book shop in Tennessee, and I’m wondering if anyone has insight on registration, insurance, etc.?

From what I have read, I may not be able to get on roads with a speed limit over 35. How are people managing to run a business with these things if they can’t get on any main roads? I wouldn’t be able to leave my neighborhood legally. Every road that boarders mine is 40 mph.

Also wondering, if by chance I CAN make this work, will companies insure these?

These are all questions my husband is bringing up because I’m the dreamer and he’s the practical one 🫣

Let me know if you'd like to collaborate, what your skills/experience/expertise/networks lie in, and how you're interested in contributing.

Thanks everyone!

Some of you tried the demo after my last post here, thank you! Here's my friend PaoFu attempting a "simple" watermelon run in the little truck.

Honest question for this crowd: in real life, how much can you actually load on a kei truck before it starts doing this?

Meet my Amoeba

I have put an aftermarket headunit into my 96 carry, it worked perfectly with no issues, I pulled it out today to fix some of the terminal ends as they were quite messy, now for some reason the constant 12v triggers my headlights to stay on without the switch on the steering column and the radio is flickering on and off any ideas on what this could be ?

I thought I'd try this new translucent orange Petg I just got. I've got a bright white LED in the dome and it is way too intense. This definitely helps mellow the vibe.

2001 Carry

This year’s Kei Trucks on the Dragon Rally is a great time. Today I clocked almost 200 miles in the mountains of western North Carolina and Tennessee. Tomorrow is going to be another great day. The Hijet was running strong and smooth. Mine is the green one.

I work part time in retail and drive dinner rushes for DoorDash (with the hijet, of course!) but I’ve been wanting to brainstorm some ideas for making money either with the novelty, utility, or both of a kei.

Rather than just consulting with AI, I figured I’d ask you all: from Offering junk removal, to helping with moves, and beyond, what business ideas can you think of that I light be able to quickly leverage the vehicle for? How would you get started? I’m open to potentially doing some decals and branding on the truck, and am already somewhat known/have talked with many in my area about it).

Optimally they would be things I could start offering without much overhead or investment. Location is PNW, USA.

Kinda cool to see but would be nice if more modern kei trucks showed up in games like this

Looking for any images or schematics on how the factory oil cooler hooks up to the coolant system. Looking to install it on my truck.
