    HG failure vs cracked head--need advise

    i have heard of a few (albeit very few) 1FZ heads cracked. i think the oil cooler is due regardless, so i may start the tear down there and if i don't find a problem, then tear it the rest of the way down.

    HG failure vs cracked head--need advise

    it seems pretty clear cut, to me at least, that i'm leaking coolant into the oil. i'm just wondering if there's any way to determine if the leak is specifically coming from the oil cooler vs HG/head. one way or the other, i gotta tear something down to find out, i guess.

    HG failure vs cracked head--need advise

    been tracking down mysterious coolant loss for the past few weeks, that i think i've solved. let me back up by saying that 3 years ago i replaced my HG and the truck has run great since then. i've had a scanguage for years and watch the water temp on it almost as much as i watch the...

    Window regulator arm replacement: not bad at all

    curtis, this may be a stupid question, but did you leave the window in the up position when you unbolted the arm from the clamp at the base of the window? it looks that way from the picture. if so, i'm trying to figure out what holds the window up (or did you somehow clamp it in the up...

    engine revs repeatedly at idle after HG

    dave, i'd like to know too. all i know is, after i let her get up to operating temp with the cap off and let the air bubbles out, she's been running great. it didn't stop the reving until i shut her down, put the radiator cap back on, then started her back up again. go figure. the low idle...
