2nd Generation Opps!

I went to clean my throttle body and got the 2 water bypass hoses and air hose mixed up. so it was putting coolant straight into my intake manifold. talk about LOTS of smoke.


I put the hoses back in the right spot. and drained engine oil and refilled and added some rislone hi performance additive (cheap stuff).
just to help me sleep and changed the filter.


It was only driven smoking for a mile. my car seems to idle smoother (from the cleaning) and the engine is quieter and actually feels stronger. but theres a more noticable tick now.

valves need adjusting? how to do so?

Almost sure the 3s-fe uses tappets with shims/discs.

You'd just replace 'em if they are worn, (to the correct spec)
