I have a 1988 4R with a 4cyl 22RE 5 spd. It's painted lime green with a 3 in body lift on stock Tacoma wheels and 33's. guy I bought it off didn't keep her up so I've done a bit of work on her in the short 2 weeks I've owned her. New spark plugs, cap and rotor, water pump, timing adjusted, new fuel filter, needed a new radiator since other one was cracked. Inside is pretty much gutted. Floors are going to be rhino lined. Interior panels ripped out and diamond plating put in place. Body lift pulled off and put on a 4in suspension lift. Lots more ideas with her that I won't mention. Unfortunately after everything I have done already since I've gotten her she isnt running. As soon as I start her the coolant runs straight out of the overflow. Im thinking plugged heater core, but most likely it's a blown HG from what I've read.
