    Brake booster removal/install

    GOT IT! I finally got the four bolts on the booster thru the firewall. The reason I was unsuccessful on the first attempt using the philips screwdriver is I had it in the wrong hole. What was happening is each time I "wiggled" the booster around the intake manifold, I would have the lower...

    Brake booster removal/install

    Is there a trick getting it thru firewall? I've attempted at least five times to get this thing thru the firewall without success. Is there some trick I'm missing? All the holes inside the engine line up but I can't get the 4 mounting screws thru so I can bolt the booster down. HELP!!

    Burning oil

    I have a 1994 4.5 Landcrusier and it burns a considerable amount of oil. It doesn't smoke so I'm wondering is it necessary to purchase a rebuild kit or is it another problem. The car has over 200k and the head was off once at the dealership to check after over heating. Since it's neve ran right.
