TravisAe86 02-20-2007, 08:56 PM it not toyota..it's the people.. Z28Wilson 02-20-2007, 09:04 PM it not toyota..it's the people..

RAV4EVR 02-21-2007, 06:03 PM RAV4EVR, get over here is time for you to shine.:nutkick::lol: I read about above but wasn't too enthusiastic to post here as only a crowd of TOYOTA ENTHUSIASTS can appreciate that.

Waiting.. :D It must only be Toyota owners of very specific engines that are dumb enough to not change their oil then.... Anyway, yeah, bad joke. ^^^ :whatthe: Toyota covering 3.5 million engines, voluntarily, due to sludge. . . . and you still think it is propaganda?

But I'm not going to waste my time. ;) 92_Gen3_5SFE_LE 02-21-2007, 07:36 PM well seeing as everyone in Nascar is running chevy engines... JetFuelAbuser 02-21-2007, 09:42 PM --- engineer 02-22-2007, 10:22 AM well seeing as everyone in Nascar is running chevy engines... huh? Chevrolet is running their SB2 motors (or Small-Block 2, from which it is loosely derived). http://circletrack.com/thehistoryof/p138715_image_large.jpg Dodge is running a modified version of the their old 340ci V8 from the 60's (not from original castings, these are race blocks and heads, based on the old design). http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/nascar-engine1.jpg Ford is running a race built motor loosely based off of the old 302ci engine (I think, not for sure. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong). http://www.markmartin.org/images/pictures/engine.jpg And Toyota runs an all new motor, not sure what it is based on. http://www.thecarconnection.com/images/gallery/tmb/7479_image.jpg They look similar, but they are different. . . . repinS 02-22-2007, 07:46 PM it not toyota..it's the people.. Yes, the people have a hand in it. But it is a problem exacerbated by a design issue. Okay, fine, forget sludge. Google "7M-GTE BHG". | |
