Valve adjust 2.7-LB

Anyone in SoCal LB area have the tools and shims for a valve adjustment?

Need to do mine soon and wondered if anyone had a shim box laying around.

Can pay in good times(cash) and burritos.

 

I'd talk to Dave and see if he can help ya out: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/superdaves-lift-installs-mechanic-service.682299/

Appreciate that very much. I'm not set up to adjust these types of valves with shims. One day, one day.

 

Alright guys,

I’m at my fucking wits end with this Tacoma. All the hoses replaced and leaks checked for. Redid the gaskets for the intake/exhaust, and replaced the front catalytic.

readings are all at idle, warmed up. After a drive cycle completed on the freeway (scary)

but I’m still getting a pending p0420 and high Long term fuel trim. (21.0)

here’s some pictures of my readings. I’m guessing maybe a bat rear Cat or bad O2 sensor.

Not sure why I forgot earlier but it may be worth hitting up Squirrel Concepts in LB They're great guys. Honest, thorough, attention to detail...

They work primarily on pre-Tacoma Toyota trucks but I think take on some other misc projects here and there. I actually saw a story on their IG yesterday where V was troubleshooting a tough issue with a truck and actually sounds kinda similar to yours (but likely different still, lol).

 

Hey!

those guys are great and we’ve been in communication. But whenever we talk there’s always a wait due to so many Tacoma’s coming in.

It might be worth rolling in if I get a chance this week.

 

Good luck!

 

UPDATE

Did the valves and ran over to PickAPart various times for shims.

the exhaust valve #3 was way off and needed a big shim jump.

Then I took off the exhaust and found this!

winner winner chicken dinner!
