    Totally! I'm having much more fun on my weekends though, in a way it helps the monotony of the work week a little less painful haha

    Have you called around for any labor quotes to have it fixed? Or are you still focused on fixing it yourself?

    Oh yea. Did it way back when it happened. Every shop I talked to said $2k-$3k, most likely closer to $3k though

    Try the junk yard and rip a working 3.0 out of a totaled 4Runner?

    My 3.0 isn't that messed up. Just needs new head gaskets. Getting a junkyard 3.0 is going to have 2 results, either its gasket is already busted, which is the reason most second gens end up in the junkyard, or its going to blow one in a little while. I'd rather just reinforce my original

    Randomly searching google, IDk if this applies but worth a call, there was/is a recall on the head gaskets.

    Looked into that as well. The recall apparently extends from all late 90 to early 95 4runners. I have a very early 90 so no luck there. Thanks for looking out though :cheers:

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Unfortunately gents I just realized I'm the "lucky" on call engineer this week... that coupled with the holiday weekend I'm not certain I'll be able make the next trip up the mountain this coming weekend!

    Add to that im sick and it's a perfect storm.

    Consider me a "likely not" and if I show up, yay! If not: see you all in June for the BBQ.

    That's that moment the two manual trannys nearly run their spotter over.
