Officially handed down my DSM to my son. It has languished since it was replaced by a new DD (2018 4RUNNER). Now I get to pass on “da nolledge” about this machine to my son.
Has boost leaks (probably) that are no problem but it also has an exhaust leak somewhere. When my DSM was my DD, I let a shop work on it (doh) and shit went sideways. They had to pull the turbo+O2housing to fix shit (that they broke) and probably re-used exhaust nuts and gaskets. Dunno, but we’re gonna replace ‘em, because she has obvious exhaust leaks.
So my boy and I are gonna do the boost leak tests but also replace the exhaust, O2 and DP gaskets.
Who do y’all trust for “OEM” manifold gaskets/nuts set nowadays?
I am a “wiseman” asking basic stuff. Keeping my baby alive, passing her on.
