|
|
Hi, When I checked my car 3 days ago I noticed an oil leak due to my sump being corroded from the outside.
Can I handle this on my own since the garage is quite far from us. Need help from you guys. Thank! |

No, he says from the outside in, and have heard about it before, something to do with not having any oil leak's, would never happen to a green oval make of car. _________________ It's Not a Bl**dy Jeep it's a Landcruiser

Not much chance of finding one in USA, so maybe weld a patch on it, or maybe order new from https://www.amayama.com/en/catalogs/toyota?_s=h _________________ It's Not a Bl**dy Jeep it's a Landcruiser

I think some of the 4Runner in the us had same chassis and engine/gearbox as the 90 just with a different body on top?
If it’s just an oil pan to change should be fairly easy job to swap out once you have the right part and a tube of liquid gasket |

I'm pretty sure that the diesel versions were never sold in the USA. and it would help if the original poster told us what engine he has. _________________ It's Not a Bl**dy Jeep it's a Landcruiser

Yep, you’re quite right…just assumed being in the US would be a 3.4 petrol…I mean gas 😁 |
