I haven’t heard of anyone needing to replace theirs, so I assume they are fairly reliable. Toyota lists them as three separate part #`s, but you may need to order all three together. At a guess I...

Another thing worth checking is that cam pulleys are bolted to the camshaft correctly; they should be mounted with the dowel pin in the middle hole. After you have bolted it on and you need to line...

The timing light pickup should be on # 6 HT lead; don’t forget to short out terminals T and E1 in the diagnosis box. I've never had a problem with air trapped in the cooling system. I normally set...

How sure are you that timing is correct, did you strobe it? A strobe light connects to # 6 spark lead and this is the one you suspect being the problem. A spark at the plug can be deceiving; it may...

Done a bit of research Andy, It seems the extra stud length is not unusual for some reason. The threads are 12mm x 1.25 pitch.

Use one of your old head bolts grind 3 or 4 vertical slots in the bolt (Dremel tool cutter works well) and clean off any burrs. It can work better than a tap because: It is softer and wont remove too...

The hole in the head is only a clearance hole, and should have no effect on compressing the gasket if the stud is over tightened. I think they suggest finger tight to allow for the stud to rotate...

Another question Andy; is there enough thread left at the top to tighten down the head, I would think you would need a minimum of ? inch or more to be safe.

Just thought of something Andy, how will you tighten the nut up if the stud sticks up by 30mm? a standard socket may not fit over the top unless you try a long reach one.

Bloody hell! That’s over an inch longer; if it screws in to the same depth or deeper than the old bolts then I would think that’s OK. The strange thing is why have they made them so long, perhaps...
