The machine shop did bore it out and put new pistons. not sure if they ground the crank. They said the engine looked really good besides it burning oil. Always did 3000 mile oil changes. Best advise i can give is to use OEM parts at least if they are available. are you in Australia?

@@ramhoves Hi, I live in New Zealand and the Corona was the last model sedan manufactured in NZ, mine is 2l manual and I used to work at a Toyota garage back in the 90s. OEM id the parts to use if possible. Cheers.

They are pretty good cars. Does it burn much oil?

@@ramhoves Yes, but it's a 30 year old car 😅. It does 9Km/L in urban areas and 11km/L in highway - long distance.

@@blvck265 Thats pretty good. I think they changed the piston ring design in the 98-00 models so those tend to burn more oil. I was curious how much oil older ones burned, THanks !!

for sure that was a struggle for me too, just keep messing with it i guess

Makes you wonder!

The Intake manifold may be very difficult to remove with the engine in the car. Its probably possible but I would not want to do it. The way that engine sits in there on a angle makes the bottom intake bolts hard to get to. It might be way easier if its 2 wheel drive, I'm not sure though. But yes I would take the valve cover off if you are going to do it. Its only a couple bolts anyway and put a new OEM valve cover seal on it while you are at it.

yes it is still going good. I don't drive it too much though. Thanks for the comment

Hi Rob, Sounds cool. You'll have to do a video when you are done, I'd be curious to see it. I have'nt done a ride video on it, but maybe I will next time i get it out. thanks

Thanks for the comment. I've heard from several people already with this problem

Good Question Just slightly under $3000.00 This place is a little weird though. They want you to take the oil pan off before you bring the engine in and they won't put the oil pan on. I still don't understand why they just wouldn't charge extra for that. Also you have to take intake off and exhaust, which I figured that. But I was surprised that they wouldn't put the oil pan on and they were annoyed with me that I had not taken it off even though they never told me to. But the engine is running great and doesn't burn oil its been over a year now. Thanks for the question

Mine is a manual also and that sounds correct to me. But I have no idea how the automatic works 🤔🤔 I ended up just having the diff lock on mine disconnected because it doesnt work and I think there was a vacuum leak in it. A new one was like $900 and I've never needed it. Sorry I'm no help but thanks for the comment!

yeah i agree! I don't know how they missed that in quality control. After i did the fix it was easy though.

yeah good point it was a struggle to remove. It may even take 2 people. Have someone turn the key that is right below the seat on left side then pull up on the back of the seat really hard, if its stuck like mine was it will be a fight.

sweet 😀 good luck. Thanks for the comment. These are pretty good engines, That are easy to work on.

@@ramhoves yeah and in the Camry, there's more space around the engine too 😁👌

Thanks I appreciate the comment. Is it in a Rav4?

Yes, A combination of a 97 and 98…. it’s hard to find a good engine in Juneau and expensive to get to Spokane for a rebuild:)

@@clarkandsharonmondich6062 I saw somewhere that a lot of the oil consumption issues are caused by the low tension piston rings they put in the engines. Maybe just putting in new pistion rings might be a cheap fix? if the bores are good good maybe just a hone and new piston rings would due?

I may just do that with the engine I’m taking out. It was burning oil… not a lot, but other than that it ran fine. This engine that I’m putting in now is a good runner.

Do you remember anything abt the shifter cables? Engine back in and running good but may have the cable switched.. only goes into 1st

I'm not sure. But I think this ignition system was only put in the 1998-2000 3sfe's.

preventative maintenance. Why wait till you sludge up the back of your engine. I've already been there and want to keep the engine clean this time.

1st step is remove sway bar. 2nd step unbolt power steering rack from subframe. 3rd drop subframe. 4th drop engine and transmission to ground. Unfortunly you cant pull the engine out through the top, so you have to drop it. This is a pretty intense job and can be very frusterating, this is a very compact engine compartment. I had the engine rebuilt at sunwest engines in spokane washington. It cost $3000. I've got about 2500 miles on it so far and hasnt burned any oil. let me know if there is any other questions you have thanks for the comment

@@ramhoves that’s a pretty fair price!! I’ve been trying so hard to figure out how to get it rebuild abd pricing and etc.

@@ramhoves do you have a website for the place you got your engine rebuilt

@@gavinwagenheim2606 sunwestautoinc.com/

@@gavinwagenheim2606 Yeah I thought it was a resonable price. Got bored out, head redone, new bearing, water pump, ect. What is wrong with yours? Is it burning oil?

I'm not really sure. Here is there website sunwestautoinc.com/ you can can probably email and ask. THanks for the comment!

i definitly learned some lesons removing it and installing it. If you remove the engine, 1st remove sway bar 2nd remove steering rack 3rd remove subframe 4th drop engine and trans to ground. I did it in a messed up order when i removed it and it was a disaster. Good luck. I finally got it back to gether and its running great good engines. THanks for the comment

@@ramhoves got any video putting it back together?

@@jayhonsolo3003 No I don't because I'm no good at video editing. Anything in specific you need help with

@@ramhoves just looking for motivation to start my rav4 project, i like how you have a step by step to take down the motor

@@jayhonsolo3003 Thats what I needed when I started, but just freestyled it, And it was not fun! I would highly recommend following those steps :)

i have a link for the kit i bought in the description. it comes with the sprockets and chain i used. However if i were to buy sprockets and chain not in a kit I would probably use 35 pitch, or maybe 40 pitch, but 40 might be getting a little to big.

@@ramhoves thank you very much

@@teric92 Also check out McMaster-Carr if you are buying sprockets and chains they have a really good web site easy to navigate

This year i haven't been able to drive it much because Washington state wanted $318 for license plate renewal tabs because it electric and there is a big charge right now on electric vehicles for "infrastructure". Pretty ridiculous. I'm going to try to contest this or something but I haven't had much time. Also have a problem with the chain poping off every once in a while haven't figured that one out yet.

It will hit 40 MPH on flat road but up a hill it slows down to maybe 34. I haven't done a full range test yet. but i think it would do 40 miles ish.

Can I use fat tire mountain bike rim hub motor for chappy?
