If you’ve gone this far, why not lap the valves yourself? You didn’t want to send the motor to a shop to begin with so unless the head needs machining, save your money. I’ve done this once before on a motorcycle head, it is easy it just takes time. Tons of YouTube videos on how to DIY. And...

I drove mine.

I’d spend some time cleaning up as much oil as possible in order to be certain of what you think you are seeing. Oil leaks are pretty sneaky......wipe up as much as you can, wrap rags around screwdrivers to get into every nook and cranny, then drive it and check it every few miles until you...

Just for fun switch the connectors and see if the problem follows it

Sorry not my truck.....but why not just check them all? It would take 10 minutes.

Everyone sees what they want to see. I saw an absolutely mint rust free Montero. That’s all I saw.

What year

Anyone ever try and troubleshoot why they start shaking?

I would never go through the work of installing a motor I had any doubts about. It’s just not worth the risk to me. But I guess it depends on your situation. I knew I planned to keep my truck for 10-15 more years. So with that in mind, I took the time, spent the money, and never looked back.

Wait.....what? Someone is making new carpet for us?

I've actually just recently had this steam thing happen to me but in a Honda Accord. It was legit fog......I had the cold maxed out and high blower setting, and humidity was pretty high. It was fogging pretty good. When I raised the temp away from max cold, the fog stopped....I maxed it out...

How long have you owned your truck? Any chance that there could be fluorescent dye in your a/c charge? If so, hit your vents with a UV light.......otherwise I think you could buy a sniffer or a shop could use one to search for a refrigerant leak.

It might not be your heater core, it could be the A/C Heat exchanger.

Remember A/C refrigerant contains a light oil as well.

If it is your heater core leaking then yes it’s a big job.

Gasoline in a plastic tub. When done, filter it and it becomes lawnmower gas.

Finally got around to rebuilding the fuel pump stems. They were rusted out and finally started to leak recently. I drilled out the old and made both leads 5/16", then used steel to nylon compression fittings. I ran the nylon forward just past the proportioning valve then rejoined the steel. I...
