1994 Toyota 4Runner SR5 review from North America
"Generally good. Long term some issues"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket blew at 118,000 miles.
Delayed shifting to over/drive after head gasket repair.
General comments?
Repaired blown head gasket with Therma-gasket solution that you add to the radiator fluid. Seems fixed. Has been running fine for the past 2 months. Time will tell. About $150 worth of repair and fluid change to get the car back up and running. It can easily be done in half day!
