Looking for a 1JZGTE VVTi.
Basically my car has been burning oil for a while, it's now using about 1-2 liters per tank of fuel! and I get major smoke out the back on full throttle and deceleration
I'm hoping to get a complete 1JZ and drop it straight in.
Reply here or drop me an email if you have anything or know anyone that does

Re: WTB; 1JZGTE VVTi
What engine is in there now? What breather set up are you using? On a turbo engine with a failing PCV valve it will be pressurising the crank case and blowing oil out wherever it can.
Re: WTB; 1JZGTE VVTi
It's got a 1JZGTE. Most of the factory intake is gone, so I have no idea if the breather is hooked up properly. Didn't really think about that :/
Will have to check that out tomorrow after work, too cold out there at the moment.

Thats what was causing mine to smoke. A $5 can of brakeclean fixed it allarchon wrote:What engine is in there now? What breather set up are you using? On a turbo engine with a failing PCV valve it will be pressurising the crank case and blowing oil out wherever it can.
the PCV is located on the right hand side of the rocker cover. It should pull out quite easily and they tend to block up over time. When clean, the ball bearing inside and spring should move freely

Shit I didn't even realise that was a valve in there, I thought it was just a piece of tube to connect the hose to. We are talking about the little metal tube that sticks out of the rh (drivers) side rocker cover?Tofu wrote: Thats what was causing mine to smoke. A $5 can of brakeclean fixed it all

Re: WTB; 1JZGTE VVTi
It should be on the passenger side (right hand side when looking from front) and plugs straight into the cam cover. The rubber bung gets very brittle though so be careful it doesn't break and fall inside when you pull the valve out (it happened to me and it sucks big time having to pull the cover off to get bits out).SimonMkII wrote: Shit I didn't even realise that was a valve in there, I thought it was just a piece of tube to connect the hose to.

Under vacuum it takes air via the filter, through the rocker and pulls vapours out the passenger side cam cover into the intake manifold and burns it. Under boost the PCV valve should shut completely.
Re: WTB; 1JZGTE VVTi
I cleaned out the pcv valve and it's still smoking guess that wasn't the problem.

Not the turbo seals?
