    '90 1uzfe turbo, oil in cooling system.

    Ok, thanks for a great forum.. I've been surfing around for a while, but my 1uz has been stored until for about a month and a half ago, when suddenly the turbo of my 2L-T powered Hiace suddenly died... The thing that I got an 1uz in my garage and no replacement turbo for my 2L made the...
