***Timing belt? or Distributor?*** guidance plz!
Love the site!
Anyway my 91 4runner 3vze v6 4x4 5spd was going along fine then it just dies at 15 miles per hour down my driveway and that was a couple months ago and has sat since (at least I got more time on the bike
Today me and a buddy finally dig in we were told to pop off the distributor cap and if the rotor doesn't spin upon cranking it is probably the timing belt! we get to the belt the damn thing is near perfect! SLIGHT...surface cracks Very slight I add (will get pics up soon) so we pull the distributor and the teeth at the bottom have two decent chunks missing not to mention it doesn't spin freely
....now Im hunting for a new distibutor! should I change the belt to?.....anything else I should look for? 210,000 miles rebuilt at 150K head gasket etc....no idea on the belt
That was a rant thanks!
