Hey guys,
I have a 97 Land Cruiser w/ the 1FZ-FE. Has had a oil leak thats been slowly getting a bigger leak. I took it to a shop and they said it the oil pump gasket but not the front cover but the one behind the timing cover @ the oil pump..
Is it neccesary to remove the head to r&r the timing cover to replace the gasket? Any other preventative items to do while I have the timing cover off? Replacing front main seal is a given.
The shop also mentioned the need to replace the entire cover.. I'm unlcear why I would need to replace the entire cover..
Thanks for the help!
