It was a mishap. I wanted to reply to your post, then closed the browser, then another guy replied & when I replied to his comment it all get meshed together with the half-written reply to your comment

Eitherway, Yes, I don't know how the PO's were maintaining the engine & I only had it for 12k kms.

Pretty sure they didn’t. This crops up occasionally and is quickly shut down - no one has ever been able to come up with a build plate, I’m quite confident the most official they ever got was possibly a dealer conversion or two

I did see a picture of the compliance plate or whatever it is for one of them. Was a special order if it happened, that's about the extent of what I know

Yeah, blowby isn't always a sign of a needed rebuild. It can be caused by massive carbon build up internally amongst other things. Without knowing any other details, it's like trying to find treasure with no map.

I'm a believer in looking after your stuff. Look after it and it will look after you. Toyota spec an oil and filter change for the 1HD-FTE every 10,000kms. Many factory service intervals are sooner than most owners realise.
