Coolant plugs?

[scaggsj]

Actually its not as bad when the engines cold, it kinda seems to get worse after its warmed up. Holds temp though. Useally a little below half way mark I keep coolant in it other wise it probley would be overheating. Im pretty sure the coolant is only getting in while its running. The water level dosent go down after its been sitting. Only after you run it.

Still having the same problems Ive quit driving for now guess Im going to have to tear into it and figure this out. Anyone know if there are any passages that I should check that could be leaking coolant into the cyls? Im going to start by pulling plugs to find out which ones are burning it and then go from there any suggestions will be appreciated

Ill see if the local parts store has one for rent. I thought you were saying to test the cap. I shouldve read it better. I knew the cap was good cause I just put it on. Im really hoping its not the Headgasket again. I think if it is rather than spend the time and money doing this again Im going to go the 2jz I found a place here in Florida that says they have jdm 2jzgtes with an auto trans mission and no cut lines with ecu and stuff for 2280.
