Well i got everything put back together and it starts but there is still alot of smoke coming out of the exhaust.... is that normal? plz say yes

 

4RunnerJ, your broken part is called a TVV Sensor. Here is a thread where a user repaired his own: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f116...ix-pics-84460/

my TVV broke when I was doing my headgasket job and I tried fixing it like the above user did but I wasn't sure if it was functional so I replaced it ($50 part).

my first start up post-HG job created a TON of smoke, my guess is it was coolant that was sitting in the cat/muffler that was burning off. it finally cleared up after about 15-20 minutes.

 

ok kool thanks for the info, and the good tip about the smoke

 

Now my car is hesitating when i accelerate and overheating, and im thinking my timing is off... i adjusted it to 10 degrees like the book says but im not sure if i did it btdc or if i over advanced it... i guess my question is which side of the 0 is the mark supposed to be on if im looking at it from the front of my car

 

on the back of my motor pretty much the back of the drivers heagasket leaking water through there is that normal and my coolant and oil are fine wut do i do please help

 

16267, 16282, or any of the hoses coming from 16351 or 16268. Could also be the gasket/seal, 16347D

 

i dont think its a hose cause i checked all those back five sensors and they seem dry but i am 90 percent sure its coming from here (back of the block the headgasket on the drivers side) its like chipped off on the outside but i theink they are good internally. This is not my motor this is just an example of where my water is leaking from.
