the valves are leaking and it needs new injectors im not good with the mechanical stuff so i took it to a mechanic he said he has to grind the valves and replace that the timing and new injectors gonna cost me 2000 this sounds reasonable and is it worth it? i feel like once he is done im gonna have practically a rebuilt engine lol

did you our your mechanic remove the head? an engine is running then suddenly valves are leaking and no compresion? sorry but that doesnt convince me. maybe the valve stuck on the guides if the engine was long time resting or your timing chain jump,for $2000 i will do you a new truck!! i should move to USA.

he did the cylinder test thats how he new it was leaking he said only one injector was cloged but since he is in there i want him to do all of them with new ones since they are the originals wile he is in there he is going to do the timing b/c it was off its almost liek he is rebuliding the whole moter which is fine i have talked to some people that collect toyotas and they said to make the investment the guy i bought it from rebuilt the motor but did a really bad job. but he has had it for 8 days he wanted to for sure make sure this was the isses its been having problems for a while though
