Thank you!

It’s a 93! What do you got for me?

Yeah I think I've seen him selling on FB marketplace I wish I could buy one of his rebuilt motors, just out of my budget. Also Im pretty sure my head is cracked so an exchange might be a no go on the head at least.

Looking for a running, preferably lower milage 1fzfe I can swap into my 80. My timing chain is about to go and my compression numbers aren’t the best so Im looking for a quick option to get on the road again.

Im just going by what the FSM says. Not sure why its not possible? Maybe it is?

Sorry for the super delayed response I really appreciate the info. Checked around with a stethoscope and couldn't pin point the noise. So I pulled the valve cover and checked the clearances. Here’s the results #11 and #12 both intake and exhaust are out of spec and i wasnt sure on the...

Oh nice. Where did you source them from? My trucks been parked because I’m repainting it.

When I posted that I was in the process of moving to Oregon so I’m no longer in MT. Have you tried the toyota only mechanic in Missoula? I’m not sure if they had them but worth a try.

kind of a long shot but if you got em give me a call at 763-333-5786
