1990 Hilux 3.0 V6 Petrol

Hi guys,

Am looking at one of these, and just wondering peoples thoughts in general, along with any knowledge of fuel economy, known issues etc? Are they on a par with the 3.0 diesel?

Cheers
Mike

Seems to be plenty of info on http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/forum/
General consensus is that they are gutless and use too much fuel. Have driven one myself and would agree, they are also prone to cracking heads, a big reason for that being the exhaust arrangement.
Nowhere near on par with the 3ltr diesel.
