    Need to get this @#$$#!ing bolt off! ::updated Success::

    Since you're not going to use the dampener... Do NOT use one of those unorthodox lightweight pulleys, they AREN'T dampened and will kill your engine. Get a stock one or the ATI dampener. I would just say cut the damn thing off, but you don't know if it's siezed in the snout of the crank and...

    Will the stock O2 Sensor Come Apart?

    Go to a junkyard and start looking around on old toyotas, I picked up a plate off a celica (I'd give it to you if I had any idea where it was). Found one online, but it looks like the first one I had that came with a cheap O2, and it cracked in half, the one I can't find is MUCH beefier...

    Wierd ping or tick under load.

    Could still be the EGR cooler gasket as the cooler is BEFORE the EGR valve so it always has exhaust going to it (unlike what was previous said in this thread). Once it blows out enough from load it will leak all the time. What exact sensor is disconnected?

    Oil reading help!!

    It's not a SBC where the crank is hitting the oil (that happens at the proper fill level on a SBC FYI...), the 7M crank is quite a distance from the oil in the pan.

    Anybody spit up white balls from time to time? (nws)

    Yep, tonsil stones. Dentist will tell you they're white blood cells or just stuck food, but they really aren't either, though they contain both. It's like a pearl, food gets stuck and combines with bacteria from under the tongue and from your sinuses to create them. They're natural to a...

    Need to get this @#$$#!ing bolt off! ::updated Success::

    Crank trick is safer in that regard as the crank is stronger than the pistons... Yeah, 3' breaker bar isn't gonna cut it...

    Need to get this @#$$#!ing bolt off! ::updated Success::

    Pull the pan off and wedge a block of wood between the crank and the block so it can't rotate, then hit it with a good impact gun or huge breaker bar...

    water in motor?

    They should be fine unless a ton of water got into the engine to get the crankcase full... The bores and rings are usually the issue on engines that have sat.

    Do targa tops really seal?

    Yes. If you look at the targa you'll notice that the mounting hole is straight in while the passenger side is a slide. Tightening the passenger side first and you'll end up stripping the driver's side (previous owner did this).
