I don't think that your auto transmissions take Toyota fluid, I believe they spec DexronII which is superceded by DexronIII which is now DexronVI, but you can get fluids which are DexronIII compatible...

If the oil is that bad then it could be contributing to the cylinders (well single here) washing down and not holding compression. People forget that oil coating the cylinder wall lubes the rings AND ...

I'm used to seeing the standard/budget line of Stant then. Superstat is probably OE quality. I know on the ZZ and AZ engines the aftermarket t-stat gaskets are harder rubber and prone to leaking, the ...

Yes the stant's are good, but they're still a normal poppet style that's either open or closed within about 15 degrees +/- opening temp. What you're seeing with the steady temp rise on the gauge in th...

The dealer sells shims, you measure the clearance, use a chart to look up the shim needed, then order it from Toyota. It's in the BGB manuals. Hell, here's the chart.
