I have an 85 4 runner, 22RE, 5 spd, with 154k on it, recent timing chain and head gasket. It has an oil consumption problem, but no smoking?? It runs almost perfect, at times it has a barely perceptable "vibration", not even something I would characterize as a "rough" idle. I check the oil and it smells very much saturated with gas?????? Is my oil being diluted with unburned gasoline??? Ive heard of difficulties with the cold start injector, but would my runner run almost perfect??? Mileage is even like 18 MPG, what gives???(I dont think its related, but either my gauge or wiring to the temp gauge is faulty, as sometimes it works, sometimes not at all, a few knocks on the dash will usually correct the gauge to normal, for how long, sometimes just 5 seconds or so)
