Are you getting water and oil mixed after a rebuild, and did you notice any kind of step between the two surfaces? 89 yota pickup 22RE 261C cam Tanny / engine rebuilt after 256K Head machined to RV street spec(EB's) Re: Head gasket blown 2500 miles after complete rebuild [Re: toyomorph] #843428 11/16/07 11:02 PM Joined: Oct 2000 Posts: 669 Austin,TX D dcg9381 Rock Warrior Might ask Ted - he's probably run into motors where that mistake was made before. Personally, I think that's quite likely... But you wont' know for sure until you pull it and see if the gasket is blown or get some indication of how the water/oil is getting in. 22REturbo.net 1988 4Runner 22RTE core, turbocharged, megasquirted...

I'm losing a little coolant at a steady but very slow rate. And also it uses oil regularly. When the nose is pointed down at steeper angles it smokes. Weird problem and probably won't be able to tell what is going on until I open it up. canyon country explorer 1993 4x PUP Page 3 of 3 1 2 3 Moderated by  4Crawler, 4x4Wire, kewlynx  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
