    Head gasket blown?

    I somehow missed your earlier message. You two hit it on the head. I’m usually good trying to spend a good while troubleshooting, but with two sick toddlers at home and trying to get my boat lift ready for summertime I’ve had my hands full. Glad I found this one-man shop because he truly saved...

    Head gasket blown?

    Winner winner. I didn’t want to mess with it and do all of the diagnostics myself and took it to a shop. Just picked it up and it seems this was exactly what had happened. I noticed it was losing the power steering fluid, but thought it was two totally separate issues. Just took it for a good...

    Head gasket blown?

    It did seem to have dropped. But the oil doesn’t seem to be milky. It’s throwing me for a loop.

    Head gasket blown?

    Thanks for the replies. I will try a bit more on my own. Was afraid to keep driving in case it is the head gasket. Seems in early stages now and didn’t want to cause any more damage to the engine by driving.

    Head gasket blown?

    Hoping someone here can help steer me. The only shop around here that seems particularly willing to work on my rig is the dealer, and they have done me wrong on one of my other vehicles, so I don’t particularly trust going back to them. Just picked up a 99 LC100 seeming to be in great shape...

    SOLD Central Illinois: 1998 Lexus LX470

    Selling this to fund a LC100 I just picked up. The undercarriage has some surface rust, but is better than most in the Midwest. This spent the first few years of its life in California. Runs great. Timing belt and water pump changed at 156,760 at Lexus dealer. Will need tires before long and...
