how do i replace a blown head gasket on a 98 Toyota corolla
how to replace valve cover gasket toyota rav4 2001
you have put a new head gasket on it.
If the head gasket was just changed on the 1996 Toyota Tacoma and now the vehicle won't start it seems that it might be a problem with the computer. Check to make sure all plug ins are good for the electronic parts, then reset the computer.
Replace the head gasket is the only fix.
Average cost to replace a head gasket is $1000

Pick up a Haynes or Chilton manual. Either one should give you detailed directions with illustrations.

It's not hard but time consuming.
I believe, you need to replace the thermostat gasket.
It should about 1 hour of labor (~$70) + plus gasket (~$10-25).
