check the pressure relief valves there are 2 of these one is on the oil filter housing an the other is on the left hand side of the front timming case the valve has a nasty habbit of chewing out the timming case easy fix but. And yes a speedy fix would be recomended at 100 psi or higher you are probably going to blow seal if it aint fixed soon :twisted:

Go to the bible Matt and download the Factory Manual. It's brilliant. It clearly shows where the relief valve is in the side of the timing case. It's on page LU - 8

On the 12H-T its under the power steering pump bracket on the drivers side of the engine right at the front. Should be the same as the 2H. Shouldnt need to remove the p/s pump to get to it either. From memory a 22mm ring spanner should get on it with no dramas.

While replacing the spring and plunger may work, my understanding is that the hole that the plunger fits into also wears, so the problem may persist..

What is that price for? The replacement plunger, spring, bolt and washer is around $20 all up from Toyota.

your problem is not the reliefe valve on the oil filter bracket.

it is definantly the one on the timing case. I have had this problem on 2 2h's. And have seen it on plenty of others. The longer plunger has fixed a few, but doesnt fix all.

toyota also mass manufactured thier parts.

these are made in much smaller quantities hence the cost.

YOu could probably get one made by an engineers shop, but it would almost certainly be dearer.

Toyota may sell the original part cheaper, but this valve is different to the original.........
