 Hey everyone shape everyone thousand here. We're back on the toyota again. We're gonna try to get that head off of here today I'm just working slawing this thing, you know, just doing a little bit at a time I've got a valve spring compressor coming in today So that way we can pull the valves out put new valves in lap them in But right now, let's see if we can get this head off of here Of course, I'm gonna speed you up through that, but I'll show you what we've done so far Okay, sir about the lighting So I took the I had to take the tensioner the timing chain tensioner out that gave me a little trouble I had to keep on back and forth it's over here and I took the The cam gear out, but Yeah, just you know half a million miles. It's So hopefully that's still good. I'll have to do some checking on that before I put it back together but I Gotta get that who's off in the back There's a clamp down there that I think I can just take that off and the head will come off And then I have to take I've got a loosen this belt here. I'm gonna take this. There's a little bolt here I've got to take it off So I can move this out of the way I've got a loosen this take the belt off and then I Can get to this pump You have to pump off there's a bolt that goes through right through here through these holes you take that out and Then you can get to the To the bracket. I'm not sure if the brackets got to come off yet But yeah either way That's what we're looking at. So I'm gonna put you in the stand. Let's get started. Okay guys. I Got all the head bolts broke loose We're gonna take them out next and then the head should be ready to pop off. I see some leakage Down there. So that's telling me the head is loosening up or dead loosen up a little bit Got my valve spring compressor here We're not gonna get into that today because there's 16 valves. Like I said, this is kind of a project but You guys probably saw me using that Using this and a big old wrench To break these loose because I could not find 12.5 inch drive 14 millimeter socket So I had to use that 3-8 drive it held it popped off a couple times, but it didn't break And I looked in the truck to get it to get a 12 millimeter out of there and sure enough There's my 14 millimeter 12-point half-inch drive socket. I could have been using my big burger bar on it, but that's all right So all we got to do is pull them up out So I'll get you back down here. We'll pull them out and then we'll get ready to pull that head up out of there It's gonna be heavy. I know it's aluminum, but that's a big block of aluminum. So Now's when I can use a good cherry picker, but I Don't have a place to put one if I had a place to put one I would buy one in a second roll it off into the corner and when I needed it for something like this I could have it but There's I'm not gonna go rent one and just for this thing. You know what I mean? I Just don't have the room in the garage Maybe someday I'll find some room for it in there. I doubt it because they do take up a lot of room But anyway guys, so let's get these bolts out here and see if we can get this head broke loose Lift it up out there. That should be a treat Was easier than I thought That's good. I gotta set a table up so I can lift this off and bring it over set it on the table And then we'll lift it off together. All right now We'll take a look down inside. I got to get some paper towel and clean out the Cylinders because of course all the you know a bunch of antifreeze sorry bunch of antifreeze ran down in it but Then we'll flip the head over to work What I think is the issue? Well, I know one issue Let me get some paper towel first Get my hands cleaned off. I don't know what you can see in there Yeah, see there's that just got in there That wasn't you know from before it's when I pulled the head off That's what went in there. So Let me get that cleaned out. We'll take a good look at the pistons Then we're gonna flip this head over and check it out together See if we got burnt valves or See if we got burnt valves or bent valves or whatever Sometimes you can't tell until you take the valve out once you take the valve out And then just roll it on something really flat a table whatever and if it does this thing It's bent. I'll be right back. Hi guys. So this is amazing now Up here on the top of the cylinders Right around here. You can see that dark spot. There's usually a lip there There is no lip there. I mean other than this carbon, you know, that's Built up there, but there is no lip on any of them That is amazing. This thing really does have a half a million miles on it guys 530 some thousand I think half a million I Don't see, you know, I'll have to move the pistons. I'll have to turn it Move the pistons up down first. I want to clean all that out. So nothing scratches it and I'll have to see if there's any I See a little bit right there. I don't know if you guys can see it right there. Maybe There is a little movement in that piston Now there's a little movement in all of them. I'm not this one's not as bad. I see some Scoring right there, but it doesn't catch my finger. So I think it'd be alright What I really want to do because I think I think I can pull that pan off The oil pan off with this still in it And what I'd really like to do is put new piston rings in it Hone them cylinders out. I can still hone this just put that piston all the way to the bottom room I still under home Down in there and clean that up. I may do that But let me get you on stent. Well, here. Let's flip this over and see what we can see. Here's the head Here's the valves Stuff's coming out. That's all right. I'm not seeing any crack. I thought I'd see a crack the valve I Mean I got them. I'm putting them in but because it did have one cylinder that was I Know it was slow on compression. I Took that plug out. So This is the broken one If you can see down in there Yeah There's the broken one So what I'm gonna have to do I think what I'll probably do is I'll cut this Electrode off here And then just drill that that way and get a straight Because I can't put this up in my press So I'll just you know drill the straight as I can get it to get that what's left that plug out of there and as you can see It wasn't all the way down in see like this one. It's even there. This one was not all the way down in Could have been losing compression there. I'm not sure but Okay Let me take a look at this see what's going on It definitely had it definitely was losing compression on a cylinder and then I'll have to get this head cleaned off Excuse me, and I'll have to run a straight edge across and make sure it's not warped So hang on guys, and I'll be back with you. Okay guys. I decided I'm gonna go ahead and pull these valves out I'll show you how to do one and Then I'll just go ahead and pull them out I don't have to keep these in order because I'm putting new ones in But we'll start with this one here see that little gap right there There's that's two pieces see there's a gap on each side Those are called keepers and they're at a wedge and I'll show you what we got to do This is a spring in here What we have to do is compress that spring so we can get these out and that's what this tool here is for It will go on here, and we get this the adapters we need and One end will hold the valve from coming out this way and the other end will press that in and Then through here. This is I think the one we're going to use Yeah then When I press his end you can get in between here in Between there to get those keepers out with a little magnet so let me get this set up and And I'll show you how to take that valve out of there Okay guys, so I got My compressor on here And I got the other end on the head of the valve this in on the spring There it is Now we're going to get our little keepers out do not lose these things And here's the little keepers See it's like a wedge now. I'm just gonna put these in here right now Now we're going to take This back off and it should let the spring Is be too easy for and put a couple ball bearings in there. So This doesn't fall out all the time. Let's pull this spring out There's the spring Don't lose these pieces either now Take this off Let's turn this up. We're gonna take this intake valve out Sometimes you have to Then we're going to inspect it The valve looks good, but it doesn't seem like it's seating very well. There's there's not a clean spot around it But that valve looks good But it's getting new ones anyway. I'm just looking for burnt valves right now This is so I'm going to get these off of here I'm gonna set these over here and Okay, I do see some pitting on the valve seat Okay, I'll show you that Let me back you out so I don't I do see a lot of pitting there Which I guess a half a million miles that's to be expected right there that silver part around there See there's a lot of pitting so hopefully When I lap these valves whoops That pitting will come out See that pitting that shouldn't be like that Okay, and then down in there's our valve guide And it should have valve seals it should come I don't know if it comes with the valve guides or not. I'll have to see but right now. I Want I'm gonna at least get these four out and then we'll see what we're looking at. Okay guys I'm gonna call it a day. I've got all the valves out Now I was looking at these spark plugs number three and four and They look good really good and Number two I took out and put in a vat and it looked just the same as these two This one I could never tell because you know Work the plug trying to get it out. But what are you gonna do? I mean you got you have to do something, you know But from the looks of that it wasn't too bad either There was a lot of carbon on the exhaust side, of course, you know, that's to be expected There was one that was kind of bad I Don't think that one was it one of them was Pretty bad. So there could have been a piece of carbon Because if you look down in there You can see all that carbon build up like right there Like see these intakes, they're not gonna be as bad because they're intake But if you look at that down in there a lot of carbon on the exhaust on The number one cylinder more Than on two three and four. See these aren't too bad. They're carbon, but not bad But the number one cylinder was really carboned up. So it could have had a piece of carbon Stuck under one of the valves also these These intakes the seats They are pitted Now a lot of people want to say well, that's a lot of carbon. That's a lot of gunk build up No, really, it's not because remember this is a half a million mile truck. This head's never been off and When she got it had less than a hundred thousand miles on it So when she would go to work like she would fill up she may have to stop and get gas while she's out She can't go to the gas same gas station all the time. So it was always running You know 90% of its life. It was running, you know At least four fifths of its life. It was running different fuels, you know and Also this truck When it was on the highway, it was running between 80 85 as long as it was on the highway I know when we took it, you know, we took this thing to gamesville many times and we took it to Georgia when we went to go spook bridge this thing was running 80. It's registered for 110 this thing was running 80 85 miles an hour on the highway and You know, I mean she was on a schedule tight schedule and she didn't she didn't let any grass grow underneath it That's for sure. This thing was always running hard so You know say what you want to You know about all this all this carbon and you know the gunk and stuff like that say what you want to about it But for half a million miles I've tore down engines with 120,000 miles that looked 10 times worse than this than this engine And that's no joke. We're talking v8s and v6 is four cylinders, you know 110 120,000 Excuse me and I mean they looked, you know a lot a lot worse than that all that sludge and stuff I mean, you know, sometimes she would say I got a Stop and get a quarter oil for the truck tomorrow Like you check it. No, but it's ticking. So whenever it starts ticking it needs oil And it didn't leak any and it didn't smoke. It just you know, I mean Between oil changes this thing would go 50 60,000 miles and she would put that on it, you know in a few months So, yeah You know, I got somebody stopping here I'll be back with you. Yeah, some younger boys and the rest of my Scott outwater there But yeah, I mean since I didn't find any burnt or cracked valves Hopefully it would just been a piece of carbon stuck under one of the valves Because if not You guys know what I'm thinking The only thing that I could think of it be a A cracked compression ring so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go ahead and move on with this as planned I'm gonna see if I can get that out drilled out and and get a repair kit in there That's not my main concern. I'm gonna run a straight edge across and make sure the head's not warped Could there be a crack in it? Yeah, but it wasn't acting like that, you know the the only problem I had was number one cylinder wasn't firing right and You know, I think it was because this is the plug that her dad put in And cross reddit. You see it's not all the way where it should be. So I Was like well since we we had the Chevy now I thought you know center later this is you know, it's gonna have to be done because it wasn't you know It was only now once you got it up to higher speeds like 60 70 mile an hour That that cylinder would pick up that plug would start firing apparently and it would run fine down the highway But taking off, you know, it was a real jerky and idling When I would pull the coil off and on it wouldn't do nothing. These was all fired. This one wasn't And I swapped the coils over and so I knew it wasn't a coil It wasn't a you know the coil itself was sparking I should say But it didn't make a difference on this now when I would drive it up to like 2,500 rpm and then pull the coil off You could tell a difference it would pick up So it wasn't acting like a crack head This being this aluminum This is aluminum head. It would have to be pressure tested now if you got a cast iron head You know like the old V8s or whatever if you got a cast iron head then you can have them magna magna flux and They put magnet, you know, they clean all up and everything hook it up to an electromagnet and they would Spread this Particle stuff on it real real fine metallic stuff and it would go into the crack and you could actually see the crack form You couldn't see it with your eye wipe it off. You could not see it But you could see it with that stuff on it. You can't do this because of course it's aluminum You'd have to have this pressure tested So what I'm going to do is move on with this Excuse me go ahead and move forward with this Then I'm going to put it all back together. I'm going to torque now I'm not going to put it all back together, but I'm gonna put the cams in and everything and that's all I'm gonna do I'm gonna You know after it's all cleaned up and all the valves and everything's done then I will go ahead and torque that down on here and And then I'll run a compression test on it And then if I still got a low compression on one cylinder, then I'll know it's a ring If I don't if it's all got good compression, then I know I'll be you know, I'll be able to just go ahead and Throw it all back together But that's what I'm gonna do But so I'll bring you guys along with me on that, but I'm done for today You can see I got a lot of stuff to pick up here and I'm gonna Put these pistons up to the top as far as they'll go. See these Number one and number four is down lower than two and three But I'll bring two and three clear up to the top and then I'm gonna shoot it down with oil This is going to go inside the truck I Didn't have to keep these in order since I'm replacing them, but it's just to have it. These are all in order here Which is not really gonna make that much of a difference on them So but once once I get the valves lapped then yes once once like this intake valve on number one is lapped in Then yeah, you you want to keep that? You because now it's lapped into this one and not this one, you know what I mean? So hopefully I can get them cleaned up. We'll just have to see but that's where we're at right now So anyway guys, thanks for watching. I appreciate it Doctors appointment tomorrow I Do have a couple videos I have to make and get out So I'll do them when I get back from the doctor. So this this may have to sift a little bug I guess some valve grinding compound So but I'll bring you back on to that. I think it's what part two Part three. I don't know part two. I don't know. Anyway, it'll be on the title Thanks for watching guys. I appreciate it. Shea Bear the myth man alleged I'm gone for now We'll see you in the next one. Bye. Bye guys. Take care
