this is my first van onwership . i've had toyota's for long enough, all of that time of spent working on them :yes:
well, dont spit at me.. i have a 90/91 CR30 bodied 4wd 2ct , its not the exact van i wanted, i wanted a retro square 'van' but, they are very rare , not more than 80 on this island, and usually can see daylight through the arches, reluctantly i brought a newer one, it still had a charm about it and had all the goodies i want, 4wd bieng the main one, part camper conversion, 2.0 turbo diesel i can live with that, toyota bieng the last tick.
i thought about other vans but i know a little about toyotas so it swayed me to stay the brand whore.
I brought it as non running with bubbling in the coolant cap. not really scared with engine faults, i'm more interested to rip it apart and see whats wrong . i hope ive posted in the right section, i dont see a cr30 type section.
here's some shots of the new family member. The head was fairly screwed, i've been cutting my knuckles for about 5 months on and off repairing it so far. it was clogged with sludge / oil around all the pipes, 3 of the valve stems well coked up 2 cracked ports on 2 different cylinders.

i also found a warped manifold, very warped, about 0.125” on length / x plane, and about 0.050” in the width / Y.
The last owner has it taken to a repair shop for a leaking manifold. Less than 3000km later the cylinder head cracked in 2 position. The repair shop had tried torquing up the exh manifold to flatten it, and stripped the threads from the head. So they repaired the threads with v coils, and just torqu’ed it up again = losers. When i removed it it was plain to see that it contributed to the cracked cylinder head.

i swapped out the old hardware into a new cylinder head .

Put a new core in the turbo. Turbo play was on limit, just , but i thought i would swap in a new one while i had the head off.

Redressed the bent flange to how it should have been, local shop guy just used a large flat linishing belt. It was flat i checked with a straight edge

Decided to cut out this idle viscous fan pulley since the last owner had an electric fan put direct onto the rad.

found some play in the oil pump was about 0.018" if you rock it back forward in a circular motion etc.
i stripped it off as a precaution to find out the state of the internals, man what a job that is ! you have to remove the torsion bar and drop the engine 2 inches to remove the sump pan, then the #2 baffle plate, theen you can remove the sump pan

and not so much in the housing bore of the pump, still, together they allowed 0.018" of rock, a little much, although no problem on oil pressure to report.

i rebuilt the pump with a new rotor and shaft and put a little grease on the shaft refited the pump repaired / patched up the sump pan because it was rotten in a few spots. started the engine, within 45 seconds idleing the engine came to a sudden stop. oh 5hit! the oil pump seized up. i think greasing the shaft was a bad idea, after removing the oil pump the shaft was seized solid, probably didnt allow the oil to flow to the shaft properly.
replaced with new pump and refitted, man, i wouldnt wish that job twice on anyone.
started again, this time with no pregrease of the pump. no issues , pump still running.
sump is here

van as it stands now, added OP and boost gauge. boost gauge is working, i have issues with the OP because it messes with the original sender , i have them both on the same branch of air fittings tucked under the alternator, another pain of a job, still, you all know what a pain these vans are to work on so i feel im in good company :lol:
