Well I recently had a catastrophic head gasket failure with lots of coolant leaking into my oil. I've already removed everything including the heads, but figured I should check the block to make sure everything is fine. Upon removing the oil pan, this is what I find in the sump filter.
My question is...how do I check the bearings without pulling the engine to ensure the bearings will be fine? Most people would say to just junk the engine, but I would like to see how bad the damage is. Can I just drop the main bearing cover and check the bearings? Would I be able to just run a heavier oil?
Thanks. The engine is a 3VZFE
