I know that my head gasket has failed , and have already removed the cylinder head , but the thing that is troubling me is , when i removed the intake pipe off the turbo , it was filled with oily gunge , this seemed to go to the inter cooler , there was no smoke coming from the turbo when it was running , even though it didnt run very well but that is how i bought it , I have had a lot of supras before , both Na and turbo , all i might add with either head gasket , or big end failure , strange then that i am still buying them , am i an old fool , or just like working on them as i an familiar with the engines .Anyhow if anyone can help on this matter i would be grateful
