Hi I have a 91 toyota truck with a 22re that has been sitting for a few months due to low compression with leakage from ex valve side... So i took the head off to redo the head and valves. While the head was off i lube the walls and piston with oil so it wont rust... and today i slap on the new head and place a new headgasket and other gaskets and new spark plugs with valve adjustment. I just started up tonight with TDC on the chain and 5 degrees on ign timing when it was running. before i put everything back i checked the compression it was around 155-170 for all four.. and leakdown test was around max was 9% leakage on just one cylinder... When i started it up it idle fine with smoke coming out of muffler... but when i rev it... its a little slow on picking up.... and after ten min it started to shake a little bit... but still smokes... i think its black or white smoke

What do you guys think is going on... with the lack of power is there still oil in the cylinders or is it missing? after the 10min i pull the plugs out and check the piston it was dry and plugs were dry and fine.. did a compression test same results around 155-170 on them..

Could it be that i didnt plug something back... also there are two vacuum on the egr valve i dont remember where they go, so i did guess gaming...

Could it be injector?, ignition? piston ring? thats all i can think of please help thanks sorry for it being long if you need more info let me know

This is what i think for the smoke it could be that the oil in the block is still burning or water in the cat still smoking...

For the shake and lack of power.... something with my ignition or injectors or emission hoses???

Or worst piston ring.... but the leakdown tester didnt tell me i had one... and compression where high on dry test
Tell me what you guys think thanks again

You torque it down properly (in the right order)?
