Engine Oiling system HELP PLEASE (1 Viewer)

[tonkota]

Well, I am almost done with the 2F swap into my FJ62, but I am not getting oil to the top of the engine (rocker shaft). I must have missed an oil passage on the head gasket. :whoops:

Would it be ok to route an external oil line to the head? Would this damage the rest of the engine?

I don't want to take the head off unless I have to.

Aaron, You may have mixed up the rocker shaft standards, I did it myself. There's only one with a drilled passage! It's the second one from the front! Good luck, Earl

I didn't tear it apart. Could I have switched it up so that the one with the hole is not where it should be?

It has happened before that the head gasket gets installed backwards, covering an oiling passage to the rockers. I'd take the head off....sorry
