Dead 3rd gen engine while off roading.

Yes, seriously. There is a thread on here with the documentation.

 

Well luckily I live in California! *Double Drink* @Inferno!

Because all of us that installed sliders have probably voided the warranty on it!

 

Both the pooling of oil over a valve guide and a PCV are the culprits

 

This is a nice video. Drone? Sucks that your truck went south on ya. Keep us posted on your status/ struggle.

 

So along with the smoke, what caused the knocking? Near hydrolock?

 

I’m really curious about that, have you seen any good diagrams or information showing which parts? This seems like it would be easy enough to add a temporary on and off bleeder line to that...

 

If you drilled for sliders just find a way to make those points rust faster. Turn those drill holes into rust holes.

 

Definitely a topic for another thread, but it’s going to be anywhere a slider touches the frame, even the bolt ons.

 

only one place to really prove a slider was mounted though.

 

Oh great, so now Toyota is not going to recommend driving on certain public paved roads with greater than a 30% grade in San Francisco, Pittsburgh or Hawaii- post #94

It was him, I follow his insta

Anywhere metal touches metal with a minute gap will be rust stained if salt gets between them. Anyways, thats for the other thread...

 

Bitch ass Steve. Use the lift bro!

 

We need a comparison to a new Ford Ranger, Toyota would surely make a change then!!

 

I completely agree. Just saying they would push back about the holes. A little extra rust is just a little extra rust.

 

Good reason to have an offroad then, you don’t need the engine vacuum for full brake authority.

 

Here’s my Holmer-fixit idea for one of you guys to try on your truck and not mine: Put in a 12v oil pump and run its intake through a drilled and tapped hole on the rear valve cover to pump and divert pooled oil back into the drain in front of the cylinder heads. The pump can activate by a switch with steep angles or manually.
