I've recently been itching for a new automotive challenge. The challenge is how quickly I can get a running, driving, and road-tripping car.
Just picked up this time-capsule 1985 Camry. It has milkshake in the oil, and runs rough (doesn't idle), the PO believes the head gasket blew.
The engine started right up, but was smoking and smelled of burning oil from the back passenger-side corner. It went into gear and I was able to drive it out onto the road from it's hiding place in the driveway.
Has anyone worked on these before? Any tips/tricks on 1st gen Camry engines?
