My camry that has solidified carbon coating the inside of the block, no compression, has been run without coolant a couple times, and drinks it's oil dry not to mention I take it to the mudpit

My 98 4r that has 90 psi of compression and also has never seen an oil change

 

You shouldn't be known as a testament to Toyota's reliability, but instead serve as an example of who shouldn't own said Toyota

 

my corolla went 880k miles on 1 transmission service and oil changes every 20-25k. and it still ran after the accident with an axle through the engine block.....


I'd like to see anything else do this. (except big rig diesels)

 

I change the filter periodically and fill the oil with either lucas oil stabilizer or compression restore when a quart low on the Camry

I havnt so much as checked the 4r's dipstick I might have when I bought it but if I didnt make note of it it was fine than

Offroading in UTAH.. Oh wow. It has OME yellow shocks. https://youtu.be/L2_X2SunYJY

 

Shit I'm hoping the slug lasts that long with the 3k I just put into it.

 

Why is it so hard to change the oil?

Mad mum

 

Is this a Jeep?

 

It WAS a Jeep. They had parked on a steepish incline. Dude set the parking brake but it wasn't adjusted right and the jeep rolled. He tried to stop it by jumping in but it was too late and it rolled off a cliff. Ejected him and his GF. He has minor injuries, she is in critical condition last I read.

 

I've been toying with the idea of cutting vent holes in the 4R hood in about the same spot and putting some kind of grill on them to allow heat to escape. Haven't found a grill that I like yet tho. That hood wouldn't be bad but I don't want a hood scoop.

Wut?

 

@Box Rocket did this to his cruiser

 

And @Uphillshunter to his truck as well

 

Just rake the hood like the drifters do

 

They are so lucky to be alive. It sure underscores the importance of a good working parking brake.
