    My Tundra threw P0305 code, after checking coils and spark plugs, measured cylinder pressure and it was 0. Also good quart and half oil was gone. Didn't leak anywhere, so i assume it got burned up.
    So as far s i know this is not going to be a cheap or easy repair.
    Did anyone had this issue, and what was the route you went. And if it's something that i won't be able to fix myself , does anyone can recommend decent mechanic ir Clearwater area.

    It all comes down to how many miles are on the motor. I would pull the valve cover off and see if it dropped a valve. There were some that the valve spring could break and if you lost the valve keeper, the valve would drop in the cylinder. If that happened it would be cheaper and quicker to find a good running low mileage motor.

    If you have a decent bore camera that has the side view feature I have used one in the past to look at the valves. Just had a Yukon in the shop with a misfire and 0psi. Pulled the plug and ran the scope down and found the exhaust valve wasn't moving and about half way down when I bared the engine over. I got it off Amazon for about 60 bucks.
