As with most bi-metal motors, head gasket sealing can be a problem. The Toyota VZ is no exception to this rule. In fact, many shops would say that this engine is one of the more difficult ones to keep head gaskets properly sealed.

While the actual causes for sealing the head to block can be debated, there are several things that can be done to ensure long life for replacement head gaskets. Make sure that the deck on all blocks are surfaced. The firing ring between cylinders five and six tends to blow out and eventually eat away at the block.

If the block can not be decked and still remain within specifications, you should scrap the block. Use the best head gasket available. Replace all the head bolts, however, we are unaware of any aftermarket supplier currently making them available.

The head gasket failure rate seems to be an even tougher problem on the 3.4L. While a perforated core graphite head gasket is a good head gasket, it doesn’t seem tough enough to handle the 3.4L. We are aware of at least one aftermarket supplier that has a multi-layer steel (MLS) head gasket available for the 3.4L engine. However, we are unaware of an MLS gasket for the 3.0L.

The motor didn’t appear to be the one in the picture, I say that because the intake plenum was a little discolored. But it did have everything on it. Only part of the wiring harness was good because they basically cut all of the wires, vacuum lines, and fuel lines, cables, etc. then pulled it out of the vehicle. I’ve got the engine and tranny in the 4runner, but not ready to start it yet. Saturday ill be able to finish it and fire it up. If everything seems to be ok, I’m going to do a comp. check to see how close my readings are to the specs in the book. I bought the tranny with the engine since it was only $190. I can say that the ATF looked real good, and the tail bearings were tight. I will post again when I see how it turns out.
