broke my timing chain guide, time to rebuild (pics)
#145
so, apparently, the rear "d" plug fell out when i had checked the chain the first time. could that have been the source of an empty oil pan?
great. i drove up to 30 miles with no oil. that sucks.
oh well, now on to removing the smaller stuff. the last major part still on is the lower intake, and i'm hving the hardest time finding how to disconnect the wiring harness. well, i got 2 and a half days...

picture time!
got a bunch done today
this is what i love about toyota trucks. no jacks needed to fit a 5 gallon bucket under the radiator. heck, i could almost do it for oil
reference shots (lots of these)
radiator out
not too bad looking for 18 years old
next up, power steering out
intermission
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDjQLPXEDtA
my extension for the exhaust bolts (2 out of the 3, anyway)
the "cheater bar" for the other one. yeah, it's a 5 ¾ drop with a 1 7/8 ball
whole bunch of junk at the bottom of the coolant overflow container
that rail-thing off
mmmm... crud buildup
i didn't expect this. rather than the nuts come off the studs, or the studs break, the studs came out of the head
it's off
not glare, but white residue
and it looks like the alternator almost fits without the transition bracket i'll try it out later
skip a few frames for the upper intake
in order, 1-4
fuel rail next
at this point i realized the rear "d" plug was missing. probably somewhere in the middle of route one. might have been the source of my massive oil leak on the ride over here. just a hunch, though
more reference
and ready for cleaning and possibly paint
that's all i got to today. tomorrow i'll tackle the lower intake, make a trip home for more of my parts, and by sunday, maybe start on the head. maybe.
question: anyone know what to un-plug to get the big wiring harness out? it's going straight through my lower intake, and i don't want it to.

for tht harness going through the lower intake, i believe their is the oil pressure sender, starter wire tht is a plug in, and 2 plugs near the starter tht go back towards the tranny, also a plug going to the idle air control valve i believe is the name
i dont remember if their was any more, you would think i would know only torn my 22re's down 3 times i believe, last time i did it i cheated and sliped the fuel rail through the lower intake and left it connected
if you want i could post the pictures when i did my tear down i have 123 all together.

If I was you, I would go buy new exhaust studs and nuts. They go through so many heat cycles that they are brittle and prone to breaking. Get a stud puller to get the rest out.
I would also get 2 new exhaust gaskets for the collector as well.
Exhaust leaks will drive a person nuts...

I believe there are two types of exhaust collector gaskets. I seen one that was a single gasket that covers the two exhaust ports, but commonly I've used the two donuts, perhaps that is what he means.
Looks good Ian, that oil leak is most likely due to the d- gasket escaping.

Yeeeeehawwwwwww! lol.
Looks good, man, whoop'n arse!
Just curious..... you're not doing ANY SERVICING to the Head while it's out? Just doing the HG for now and then doing that FULL rebuild later, including the Head, when the time comes? .........sorry, just trying to remember, haha.
Looks like you're making great progress, Ian, CONGRATZ!
CHEF OUT! LOL

to get a nice seal on the timing chain cover, and get the broken guide out.
a few things that will happen whenever working on an engine:
-something will break
-you will get hurt
-the hardest bolt to get to is the hardest to remove
-it's grimy
-you'll spill fluids
-nothing is as easy as it seems, but it will come off/go on eventually
...so far

anyone know how to loosen a stuck head bolt? it's #8 on the loosening chart (haynes manual, page 2a-6). i've tried ratchet, breaker bar, breaker bar with impact socket, with foot in the engine compartment, and with a ratchet strap pulling on a wrench. with the breaker bar, i managed to chip some of the corners of the bolt, along with a puff of smoke.
anyone know?
