New here (but not to Toyota's)
How many of you have been through the V-6 blown head gasket thing ? In know the v-6's are known for this, I'm experiencing it now on my '90 truck. I was wondering how often there is damage to the head and or block. Truck has 130,000 miles and getting rusty (western PA salt zone). I'm trying to decide whether to fix it or part it out. Any input greatly appreciated. I hate to dump alot of money in it just to have to get rid of it in a year or so due to frame issues.
PS local Toyota dealer wouln't fix under recall - too old and too mant miles.
thanks
