Slight miss after warmup is usually due to a vacuum leak.

 

all original?

 

lol..just giving the 3.0 guys crap

 

Mine went 404xxxkm's

Until i sold her yesterday

 

330 000 km all original! Match number 4Runner! No head gasket done and riding in Quebec's cold winter! Still running strong, not taking any oil nor coolant.

 

what'd you do that for?

 

About to turn 177K on mine. A/C might have finally given up the ghost...its being looked at right now. H/G was done @ 60K. On my 5th set of tires as of last week (SMOKIN' deal...4 Michellin LTX M/S 31x10.5 for $167! They were starting to dryrot and still under warranty!)

My Mom has a '93 2WD V6 that has almost 300K. Hope it lasts a few more years as its definately showing some wear.

 

I just hit 232,000. I bought it at 200,000. No idea of HG but runs awesome. I have done all new cooling system. All new front end. Wires,plugs,all that stuff. Getting ready to do seafoam treatment. then do oil pan. And do valve adjustment. That's the only real problem is the tapping... Quick ques: anyone run the E3K diamond fire plugs? Anyone notice higher engine temps or any engine difference from NGK plugs?

 

i have 371k on mine, completely stock, no HG at all.

 

231,XXX. Probably original HG.

 

167,000+, HG done under recall (Aug 98, 57k miles) Steering Relay rod done under recall (Aug 06, 126k miles). Nothing but routine maintenance, runs great. A/C started acting up last summer, I think it's a sensor but might be the compressor clutch. 19+ mpg consistently (since I solved the EGR puzzle), DD with 50 mile round-trip commute each day.

1/2/2011 update: 198,000+ now, still going strong, had a rough idle, significant missing under load issue last fall. Turns out when I changed plugs last most of the threads stripped out of cylinder 6 (or 3, closest to driver). One day the spark plug blew out, talk about loud, it was still held by the plug wire. I wrapped the plug with teflon plumbing tape, cranked it in and drove it home. I ran one of those taps in that bores out the hole a little bigger, then a threaded sleeve that sizes it for the plug again. Took about two hours taking my time, cleaning out the tap frequently. New plugs all around and new wires and it's like new again, getting 20+ mpg every second or third tank.

 

281,000 and counting. HG done at 240,000. Valves have never been done. Still drive it to work 300 miles a week.

 

220k currently. HG at 160,000 went ahead and rebuilt topend when did hg bottom end was great, broke a valve spring and drove on it for 10k until had time to fix. Everything else routine maint

 

240,000 just did the hg

 

My truck has 266 and I did the hg last july at 255. I added cams and lce headers...stupid me didn't think I had to rework the botttom end. I should have. But oh well when it gives up ill just throw a 1uzfe in there. Most of the time I get about 220 miles to a tank but last weekend I got 300 by going 60 on the highway and drafting behind a big rig lol.

 

I have 165,000 on my 3.0. To my knowledge the HG has never been done.

 

205k on my 95 3.0 2WD runner! Running strong 21mpg highway. Headgasket leaks and injectors making alot of noise. Sugestions???

 

nothing you can do to the injectors, just noisy and always will be. as far as the headgasket, drive it till she blows hahaha

 

Yup i'm a dummy. Valve cover gasket not head. Praise ala. I hope I haven't screwed my self. The dealer said it's not under warenty and hasent been done befor so I hope iv got one of the rare ones that isn't affeced by the head gasket. Dealership recomended lucas injector cleaner. Any body agree, disagree, or have better ideas? Sugestions of the cheapest way to getmy valve gaskets done. I'm living on the road ska no shop. I'm tataly capable just don't have tools. Any body in CA want to help? Will work for work!

 

Lucas makes some real good stuff. I run the oil stabilzer in my vehicles haha. 95 should have been under the recall, unless yours was one of the last to leave the factory with an updated set of headgaskets. I know my 90 wasn't covered, but thats because I had the asbestos head gaskets, and never had a problem with the engine haha.
