My buddy has an 86 22r 4x4 toyota and he told me he would sell it to me for 600 bucks. It has roughly 180k miles and smokes pretty bad. Its not steam like a headgasket nor is there oil in the coolant. He inssists that all it is is that the carb is messed up and is dumping tons of fuel into it. I mean its a nice truck expecially for the price and it only needs a new drivers door( trailer backing accident) and could use.a paint job in a couple years. Im not extremely familiar with the 22r and would like advice. P.S. the smoke is blackish like it should be if it was getting too much fuel

 

Buy it!!!!

 

If noting else, buy it ant part it out. You can make that back in parts in no time!

 

I think its usually an oil burning issue when it smokes.. but depends on the sm9ke and what it smells like and the color. Anyway, even if u do a rebuild I think its worth it.

 

An 86 with a 22r?
Neat.
It's had an engine swap.

 

Do some research, please.

 

Apparently I stand corrected.
I've never seen or heard of anything passed 85 with a carb.

 

Buy it, worth fixing it. And even if you don't want to fix it. Part it out and double your money

 

Well i dont think its burning much oil if any he said he usually has to add a quart between changes. The smoke is blackish and does smell like fuel. I know i can triple my money instantly but i dont want to. I kinda want to drop a 302 in it but i dont think the tranny will hold up to the one i have. Its more than your average 5.0

 

Bump.......

 

Give me your friends number I will be buying it! lol

 

It would be nice if it was SA but the ifs on my 4rnr worked pretty good so ill have a go at it.... did i mention that the bed isnt rusted out.

 

Buy it, and yes the classic small block hahaha. Always love the question at the drag strip wth my ranger... whats in that thing.. just a small block

 

Go buy it before someone else does!.....the bed alone if nice is worth the price of admission....

 

Well the motor is in my bronco and ive got a gps speed of 120 without having an overdrive transmission 3.55 gears 32 inch tires and the aerodynamics of a cinder block

 

Im going to go ahead and buy it. May take a bit to get pics but i will.

 

Nice, those gears help a lot for that top speed also.

 

Well its also nearly twice the weight of a Toyota and is only a 3 speed and it dominates nearly every truck around. I want to be number one.... " i wanna go fast"

 

Update bump. It is an 87 not an 86 and has 165k miles. All original needs a carb tune up and a new door. Has brand new tires. 700 bucks...... im picking it up tomorrow. Pics soon

 

Great Deal!
