Oil

I was doing some trails and i rolled my 1988 4runner onto the roof. It was on the roof for about 30 minutes, i used a come along to get it back on all fours. I let it sit for prolly 2 hours then i started it but now it burns oil. It wont stop burning oil and before the accident it was fine, any ideas. Could it just be the valve seals or something?

Re: Oil

It could be that you have some oil in the cylinders, and possibly in the intake and exhaust manifolds. It seems to me that it will burn off eventually. You might try removing and cleaning out the intake manifold, and changing the plugs. The intake manifold would take the longest to get all of the oil out. Not much you can do about the exhaust system if there is alot in there. Should burn off. Might be bad for your cat converter.

Re: Oil

It's unlikely you damaged the engine. It should burn off as above.
