Toyota Trucks: 22R Problems

22R Problems
I'm helping a friend get his 86 Toy P/U running again. Engine will crank
but will not catch. We've checked the compression to find 0 on all the
cylinders. The engine has never overheated and it was working fine until a
week ago.
I'm thinking it's the head gasket, but if the engine has to be rebuilt, it's
better to buy a rebuilt engine. For some reason, 22R engines are more
expensive compared to other newer engines.
Anyone know where we can purchase a 22R for a decent price in Southern
California?
TIA

Zero? 0 psi? As in nothing? Nil? Even a piston with no rings will
register some psi.

Re: 22R Problems
sounds like a broken timing chain --- remove valve cover and see if valves
are being actuated.

Re: 22R Problems
If you ahve to rebuild it, pull the motor and have a reputable machine shop
build it up for you. This way you know what your starting with and exactly
what goes back in.
I agree with the earlier post, zero psi?? are you sure you had a good seal
with you compression tester?
Good luck and happy wrenching

Re: 22R Problems
The timing chain is intact. The cam does move and the valves actuate. I
have to leave town on business, but I'm going to pull the head off when I
get back this weekend. I'm suspecting it's a blown head gasket, but all 4
cylinders blown? Someone suggested the seat rings fell out. I won't know
until I get the head off. My friend does not have a lot of money to spend,
so I'm trying to avoid purchasing a rebuilt engine.
Thanks again,
JW

I'm thinking that has to be some sort of misunderstanding. Either that, or a
broken compression gauge. Not seated firmly? Something.

Re: 22R Problems
I would sure try more troubleshooting before I sprang for a rebuilt engine.
Spark? Fuel line? Fuel filter? Gasoline in the tank? Don't laugh about
that last one. It's happened before.

If the timing chain is intact look at the gears very closely. It sounds like
it is radically out of time. Possibly the chain jumped, but when that
happens it's usually only off by one tooth, which makes it run rough, but it
runs. If you can determine when #1 cylinder is at TDC on the compression
stroke, look at the valves. If they're both closed, turn it over backwards
and see if one of the valves starts opening fairly quickly. They should both
be closed shortly after the piston is at bottom dead center. The fact that
all cylinders are at zero indicates a mechanical problem, not a blown head
gasket. A blown head gasket takes out 1 and often 2 (adjacent) cylinders.
But not all 4 at the same time. That would be very rare.
Good luck with it.
