    "Tacoma SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road towing capacity: 3,500 pounds"

    LOL

    Tow capacity is less than my payload capacity, and mine's low due to Limited trim and all the fancy doodads.

    "Tacoma SR and SR5 payload capacity: 1,685 pounds"

    About the weight of my engine/trans/xfr case.

    So, my truck has had an annoying exhaust manifold leak for a little while now and I just haven?t felt like dealing with it.

    Today I decided that if I just pretend its a diesel it is less annoying.

    If it was in the pipe we could weld it up pretty easy. Manifold sounds like it needs a gasket though.

    It's all fun and games until you're at the gas pump.

    Anyone have to walnut blast intake valves on a gasoline direct injection engine?
    How common of a issue is this?

    Audi A4 seems to be a maintenance item at 100k or less. But the amount of crud I found on the one I maintain was meh.
    My Hyundai engine is gdi too and folks go anywhere from 75k to never.

    Considering how costly that can be I would make sure it?s really needed. The A4 folks who did it say there really was no noticeable improvement. YMMV

    GM 5.3 by chance?

    The driver side manifold likes to warp a bit at the front, might not just be the gasket.

    No. Dodge 5.7. Apparently it was a pretty common thing. The rear cylinders like to snap the bolts. I?m thinking it was mostly an issue with the bolts more than anything. Seems to be common in the 2010 to 2012 range but I haven?t read much about it after that.

    Hyundai has scheduled maintenance to chemically clean the intake system which should also include the valves. Using Top Tier gas also helps keep it clean.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
