So i just got a 94 4runner and i need some help. First off the key gets stuck in the ignition and i have to play with it to get it to come out what can i do to fix it? Also can i unplug the buzzer that goes off when you have the key in the ignition and the drivers door is open?

spray some graphite in the key hole. It should help for a little while. If your key is not the original, it may not be cut exactly right, causing it to stick a bit. No big deal, as it is used, it'll wear in.

As for the buzzer, it should be under the drivers side dash in those years. Just open the door, follow the sound, and pull out the buzzer. Thats what I did to mine ('91 pickup)

or you can replace the entire ignition and get a new key

Tear into the column and replace the whole barrel assembly. Or put it up for sale.
