I found out that the guy was using the wrong tool and im not the only one who got screwed on head work. and im still buring oil i got get my leakdown tester from work and stop being lazy and make sure the valve seals are good.

update: i passed inspection a week ago. Also rechecked the head bolts Click click

I pulled out the O2 sensor black as sin cleaned it / pulled the EFI fuse. going on a long sunday drive in a bit.

also i found out what i wanna do for the intake http://www.yotatech.com/f88/pics-swapping-battery-airbox-148248/
Keep the stock air filter set up run pipe threw the fender then out the anntnI hole up the a-piller.

BUt i was also thinking on a supra 5m air box swap i got more reading to do so if anyone has done this or has a spare

I did the air box relocation, but I never finished it with going into the fender. I just got burnt out and moved on to other things. I am sure you saw it in my thread like last year, I think you made comment on it.

So is the engine shop going to make it right and fix it, as well as paying for all your gaskets, etc?

never thot about really his shop is way out of my way and ts not even worth the fustration it is what it is.

we took the truck out for a 3hr tour did some highway 5th gear 60mph 20miles stop at wallmart no smell, then went exploring down this little atv trail nice little spot side burms constant tree branch smackged ( note to self maybe i should not paint the truck) follow it all the way ti this nice hill open area, turned around found another atv trail took that 2 a river then headed home. wass mostly in 4L/first just above idle I did not smell that bad fuel fumes tilll i drop off my buddy but it was barely noticeable.
Usually after drive half way 2 work i can smell it. So i say cleaning the O2 sensor was a 90% improvement.

Joe if that is where its gona stay forever then thats fine but just remember when its there its there If i were you and you still have the space I would mount them down low where the sunglasses holder is that way they will not get in the way of a drink in the cup holder. that is simply the easy way to run them down low out of the way easy to wire them in behind the dash and they are easy to glance at when you need to just my
