    Just talked to previous owner he said the gauge sometimes didn't work. He said its reads great while driveing but at idle sometimes it reads low. I'm gunna test it with a better gauge

    Rotella T6 5w 40 in 7mgte

    I understand. I'm not using because it works in my truck. I'm using it because like u said above the low viscosity when cold. And viscosity when warm. That is why I'm using it. I use to to run rotella 15w40 in my truck. I don't know if u guys have diesels but in the winter they don't like to...

    No I thought i could use it because if it runs of off thick 15w 50 it will run off of 5w 40. Be easier for the engine to move the oil around when cold

    So I'm thinking that the 5w 40 will work. If it can take the punishment I put in my truck it should handle the supra.

    The guy before me ran 15w50 in it. It' has 140,000 on it so thin oil won't work to well untill it's rebuilt. I just heard of people running 5w 40 in it. I know it's great oil but idk if its great oil in a 7m

    It's definitely getting rebuilt next winter if not sooner once I get the car back from paint I don't mind taking the engine out and taping the head apart. But tearing into the block and removing pistons. I might just have the shop do that i never went that deep into an engine. I know I could do...

    To rebuild or not.

    Yes I'm going to putting the engine together myself also. Should I get a valve job. Or just let them machine the head and clean it. Also when you say over a thousand do mean just machine work or including the hg and studs

    I'm just wondering what the machine shops charge to to deck the head. Do a valve job put new bearings and rings in. All stock spec no boring over. 1,000 is not bad

    How much is it usually to get the head and block decked. And put some bearings and maybe some new ring. I was thinking like 1500 to get the everything done including the mhg

    I know what it is I don't know how to spell it. It's a metal head gasket. I did plenty of research. I'm not going over 400 hp so I don't need forged pistons. I' know they are stronger and safer. I'm gunna to a compression test on the cylinders to see what they read. The comitec head gasket has...
