my wife test drove a 2000 toyota 4runner 6cyl w/ 5spd (this is why she wants it and they're hard to come by) with 21k on it, they want $22k for it.
i looked under the oil cap and on the little metal oil deflector or what ever it's called, there's some crud. i scraped it off w/ my finger nail and with a rag and looks like dirt.
as a diesel mechanic, i'm thinking this is a no buy
any one else agree w/me? her tacoma 4cyl w/ 26k on it has only had amsoil in and it's clean as anything.
other than that the 4 runner is in perfect shape.
would this be a job or auto-rx?
i plan on telling the stealership, that as long as they put a new engine in, we'll buy it.
thanks for any input
