94 Hilux Surf Questions

[islandstylz]

Hi All, Im a newby to this great site, and proud to be a new member of the toyota army!

I have a 94 Toyota Hilux Surf SSR-X 3.0Ltr(auto) with 160K on the clock, since im fairly new to the mechanical world, i have a few questions to ask:

1) What things can I do to complete a Tune Up on my vehicle and are there specific instructions on how these things are done (Instructional Material?)

2) I have a distinct metal grinding sound when I turn off the engine which lasts for 2-3 seconds then stops.

3) How do I replace my air filter?

Any answers to these questions would be much appreciated :)

All the answers will be found on these two sites:

p.s. The rattle sound is probably a loose heat sheild on or around the turbo or exhaust downpipe.
