There is a good thread somewhere on here about putting your car on ramps to assist on bleeding the air out of the coolant.

If need be I have professional tools to do such. I'm service manager at one of the largest parts distributors in the country. We have all the necessary tools to properly bleed a system like this. But I doubt I'll have any issues.

But I got my O Rings today. Hopefully this is everything. I'm starting to get antsy on having my car back. Driving the lifted Toyota around is kinda bothersome.

Ok. Still going to do the oil cooler o rings. But from the current looks of things, I think it was AOS Related. Since the intake tubes were soaked, there are a couple vac lines that "might" have been disconnected that leaked the oil from the AOS to the intake manifold. I still have tons of cleaning to do. But now just gotta figure out how to remove the two intake manifolds. Clean them, plug the runners and clean the top of the engine and all the parts that were soaked in grease. Pretty much a total detail. We'll see tho, everything seems to be going fine.
