Auburn Gear Mini-Spool Installation Instructions
The Auburn Gear mini-spools are designed to be “c” lock compatible, but there are certain applications where “c” lock eliminator kits must be used. Any ring and pinion ratio that does not allow the differential cross pin to be completely removed (due to ring gear thickness) must use a “c” lock eliminator kit. For safety reasons, Auburn Gear highly recommends the use of “c” lock eliminator kits which will retain the axle shaft in the event of axle failure. The Auburn Gear mini-spool replaces the differential side gears and pinion gears of the stock open differential with a device that couples both axle shafts together allowing maximum torque to both wheels.

2002 Toyota Tacoma System too Lean (Fuel Trim) Engine Diagnostics
Fuel trim is related to the feedback compensation value, not to the basic injection time. Fuel trim includes short–term fuel trim and long–term fuel trim. Short–term fuel trim is the short–term fuel compensation used to maintain the air–fuel ratio at its ideal theoretical value. The signal from the A/F sensor is approximately proportional to the existing air–fuel ratio, and ECM compares it with the ideal theoretical value, the ECM reduces fuel volume immediately if the air–fuel ratio is RICH and increases fuel volume if it is LEAN. Long–term fuel trim compensates for the deviation from the central value of the short–term fuel trim stored by each engine tolerance, and the deviation from the central value due to the passage of time and changes of environment. If both the short–term fuel trim and long–term fuel trim exceed a certain value, it is detected as a malfunction and the MIL lights up.
