Hi,
Brand new to the forum, first post. I have a '97 Collector's Edition Land Cruiser. It is consuming some serious oil. I had a leak down test done on the cylinders. The results stated "compression is leaking through the piston rings." I would like some advice. Should I rebuild this 1FZ-FE motor to keep the original with the vehicle or should I buy a remanufactured engine? Also, is there a reputable source to purchase the reman. engine that anyone can recommend? If I decide not to rebuild can I have the next size bigger engine put in without having to change the transmission as well (2UZ-FE)?
Thank you,
KK
