Typically people forget about keeping the valves adjusted. If it’s too tight the valve won’t close and that’s what will burn the valve

 

Was that the fake Denso ones or different?

 

Yeah they should be checked every 50k or so. As @Running Board Man said, you may have a burnt exhaust valve.

This is a thing I went through 2 months ago.

 

You do you, just don't offer up bad advice to others.

 

Ok, I'll have to look into that. The shop was quoting me on having to do 10 hrs worth of work or was wanting ne to swap my engine

 

Fake denso. Melted into the plenum. Talk about a fucking mess to clean up

 

I didn't advise him to do anything, simply stated the fact you CAN get 4 injectors for less than 40 dollars

 

Eww..

I'm happy with the Intermotor ones I got off rockauto, they seem to be the real deal. They were not $10 each.

 

Whole engine swap unneeded if it’s due to valves. A leak down test will tell you where the compression leak is. If it’s a burnt valve pulling the head and having a valve job done will work

 

Both my tacomas and this 4 runners are metal so I'm not melting those

The hate is real maybe I just got a good batch last time but theyve worked great for me in the past

 

Lol never understood that either

 

Sooooo opinions. Big pew pew or arb?
Both will cost the same. Go. Because I need to decide in like 4 hours if it’s still available. Lol

 

I guess if your burning through cars like a whore does men then it doesn't matter how janky you fix your cars.

 

Don't infer anything I didn't imply

 

Your posts speak for themselves

 

Are the valves easy to adjust/get to?

 

Special tool makes adjusting them easy. All you need is a feeler gauge set, the valve shim tool and some shims
