Anyone have experience doing one?
I'm at 150K miles now.. Want my valves shimmed.
I've had 2 mechanics tell me "if they're not making noise don't touch it." Fuck that. Fine, I'll do it myself. But, this requires pulling the VC, measuring clearance, then ordering the necessary shims from Toyota.
So this could be a multi day job.. I'm okay with that. But does anyone think they could come help? I'm confident I can do it I'd just like someone who's done it before to look over my back..
Let me know if you think you could help. I can reimburse you for time and gas.
If no one here can help.. I'll ask my neighbor who's a ford mechanic :lmao:
