whoa hold up, first do the tappets, thats all that was wrong with mine, the shims neded to be skimmed a few thou and i had compression after that
intake is 0.24-0.34mm
exh 0.29-0.39mm
cam timing must be to factory spec for that
i.e. both timing slots on the front top of cams must be straight up
this is whats in my GENUINE toyota 18RG book
if they're cool, do the 1 tbs of engine oil down each bore test.
part number for FULL gasket kit for 18RG/U/E ir GK690 for a permaseal kit
go to chilton automotive in wooloongabba for this kit as thats where i got mine
K&M automotive are VERY good at what they do and are VERY cheap, use them, they can source anything in 5 minutes flat
get compression tests done definately {$100 or $120}
and maybe a valve grind too, if u got the cash get the valve guides and seats done so u can use unleaded all the time {the transport dept wont know that, so u dont have to get a cat conv.}
rings are about $50, big ends are about $50 and mains are about $50
plus labout for the rebuild if u dont R&R it yourself
