1987 22RE Turbo Rough start and rough idle.

I need some help. I have a first gen. 4 runner turbo. It is running very rough and starting very hard. Seems like it it getting too much fuel. I had a coolant hose leak & some coolant lost so I replaced it. It never overheated but the coolant is boiling at 50% water mix. I have some white smoke that seems like steam coming out of the tailpipe once it starts but only for the first 30 seconds. When I crank the motor over trying to start it it seems like a fuel mixed with something else is dripping out of the drivers side of the motor. When I first bought it I changed cap, rotor, plugs, wires, oil and air filters. Changed some vacuume hoses but wondering want to do now to fix this. Not sure if the symptoms indicate head gasket. Would like to do other checks before replacing the head gasket. Truck has 260,000 miles. Haven't done fuel filter yet but I have it. What do you guys think I should do?

Thanks!
JT

Also it runs great when warm and rpms are up above 1500.

Luckily those aren't too challenging to replace versus the 3VZE. Sorry that it blew, I know that pain

Thanks 128keaton. I haven't done one in 20 years so I guess it's good practice.
