If it's only at start-up, it most likely the valve seals, it is extremely typical on celica's from 77 at least to the present.
Mine have been doing that since I can't remember. usually after 100,000 miles on the clock. it's nothing major, the seals are cheap, the bugger is pulling the head to get to them and getting the right valve spring compressor (I had to fudge with one from murray's and a hot-glued deep-well socket.) I wouldn't bother unless you using up a lot of oil. Other than that it could be(oh, my G--. the piston rings, oh no!!!) hope this helps! |
