Thanks for your reply. You are right, it was the head gasket. That's what this thread is all about actually. Fortunately I was able to replace it...
Drove my newly repaired 2010 Prius to work today and it runs better than I remember in recent history. Engine starts are so smooth! I assume the...
IT WORKS!!!!!!!! Started right up. After lifters pumped up it was nice and quiet. And the best part, NO SHAKING UPON RESTART!! Still have to put...
Next chance to work on it will be Saturday. Do you recommend cleaning the intake manifold? Looks like it could use it.

Got it. Thanks.
Actually I was wondering about bench testing since I have it out. Something involving resistance or current draw, etc. But I suppose it would need...

Yep!
Noted. Thanks. Assuming I can torque the cam assembly down (which will probably have to push at least some valves open) without either cam...
Definitely. I see Video 17 on this page is about EGR cooler cleaning. I plan to follow this. Nutz About Bolts Prius Maintenance Videos | PriusChat
I plan to take it all apart and clean as in the videos. Though EGR pipe doesn't look so bad honestly for so many miles.
