big trouble think I blew head gasket
ok think my 94 4 runner blew head gasket
I drove it this morn made my destination shut it off then started 15 min later it didn't start right away cranked and cranked then it started
but ran rough then I saw the smoke out the tail pipe big and white
so she is toast
How is fast easy way to find out what side it is
I have a head gasket for the DS and I'm hoping for next to no damage
looking for any and all pointers
thanks in advance

just do a compression test on all cylinders with a compression tester, but just do both if it has the 3vze, make sure to use multi layer steel head gaskets with new head bolts, and get the heads resurfaced, or rebuilt.
