Old man's got a 96 Hilux with over 550000 k's on it it still puffs along lol might get a oil change once a year
Nice.. I managed to pull 46.3kw/atw on my 3L 94 sr5..
I had the 2016 hilux had the dpf problems an Toyota Australia brought the hilux back off me in December 2019 for the price I payed for it new in 2016. An I’ve brought a 2.8 hilux 4*4 an I get better fuel mileage for the old girl then the new one ☝🏼
Explain that Toyota
True! I recall forests NSW had sludge problems with these motors. They had toyota japan outbto have a look and toyota japan said they were not designed to do what we were doing. Clean oil, change filter, meant a clean pickup :)
What where they designed to were they doing to much idling around
In Costa Rica as well! The dealer accused the owners of not doing oil changes as frequent as 2,500 Km and denied any responsibility for the demise of these engines. I wish we had your consumer protection law in Costa Rica!
My old work had a hiace with this engine. Never saw it get serviced for 2 years straight doing deliveries all day everyday. At one stage the starter motor died and wasn't replaced for 2 weeks, they just push started it with a forklift every morning then never turned it off till the end of the day. Obviously it seized up, 554,000ish kilometres is definitely getting your moneys worth out of it though.
Ours too had a tough life, albeit, we still run it! It's a 1999 LH112 with the 2L diesel engine. It's got 450,000 Km. There is no oil consumption whatsoever. Albeit the camshaft is pitted and there is a slight imbalance in the engine whilst at operating temperature. Perhaps yours with a little maintenance by replacing the motor oil and filterers could have lasted 1,000,000 Km like they do usually here in the airport taxi service.
@rbruce63 if it can pass half a million with zero love then I have no doubt it could have easily made that.
Great information. Thanks Andrew
Didn’t snap the manifold bolts this time, nice
They can't promise that
Very nice
Thanks mate

i got the same motor it done over 536018kms
Which engine do you prefer 1990 2.8 diesel or 1997 3.0 Diesel both on Toyota Hiace Van. The 1990 with 2.8 is manual tranmission
I prefer the one thats been serviced the most 😉
And of cause, Tdo4 and 30psi
Hi Andrew great work on the videos very informative. I have a LN 167R 2000 model Hilux running a 5l motor with 260,000 on the clock it has a set of extractors fitted. It is a camper that weighs 2900kg so it’s fully loaded all the time. I have just fitted an EGT probe into the extractors just after where the 4 runners go into one. The EGT are between 450 -500c when cruising on a flat hi way at 100kph in 5th gear and climb up to around 750c when going up hills where the speed drops back to 80kph. I down shift to 4th gear and the EGT only drops to 700c. I have owned the vehicle for 5 years and done some very long trips without any issues. I am concerned that these temps are too high and are possibly having a long term affect on the engine , I would like your thoughts as to if these EGTs are too high. Any information would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance.
Hi mate. Youre looking at it as if it were Pre Turbo (even though you dont have a turbo
Combustion temps can be very high straight from the exhaust like that.
Cheers
@@BerrimaDiesel Hi mate thanks for your reply that has put my mind at rest.
👍
Good video. Thank you. Question for you. I live in Colorado so the weather fluxuates from around 0 to 37. What is a good oil and oil weight? Also, where can I purchase an oil filter? I just purchased this truck about 2 days ago. Thanks again.
Probably a 5W40 10W40
Just put a turbo on it can someone sand me a picture of the Diesel screw to turn it up
Can you show us how to install a turbo and inter cooler on this engine?
Did you get the chance to put turbo on your 3l engine?
Why would you do such thing on a 22 or 23:1 compression? If you’re not changing pistons for a shorter stroke you can crack the heads over time. Also low pressure turbo doesn’t help much. Keep it simple and reliable.
Not mine it loves hills and it is non turbo I just have the motor and gearbox in an 86hilux just move the engine mounts forward and it drops straight in
hello my 94 hilux 2.8 diesel my clock and cig lighter only seems to work when it wants to, the fuse is fine, i look at it now its working , the next time i look at it, there off, how do i fix it to stay on,,
Bad earth maybe
Hi Berrima, I've turbod my 3L with a water intercooler. What is a safe EGT limit to start backing off when going up a hill?
Nothings Safe unless its done by a Pro. We consider Power gains before and after, Heat soak, Ambient temps, Fuel peak loadings Vs boost needed etc. So one cant really say an EGT is Safe as a guide.
My 3L injection pump is leaking through the O ring on the throttle shaft. Is possible to open the pump to replace same without removing pump from engine
Yep but as you fix one leak one more may follow....
I want to take that gamble to change throttle shaft o-ring on injector pump on 3L Hilux and if it develops other leaks then I'll have it rebuilt
Good Luck
Hi mate can you tell me what type of gearbox oil and dif oil should i use for 3 l engine . Average temperature is 30 -35 around here
Hi andrew. I got the same engine. When i change the valve cover gasket, there is something that look like a ceiling insulator when i remove the cover. Do you know where can i get it? Or is it okay if i didn’t use the cover?
Hey i know its 2 years later lol but this is noise insulator according to amayama you can still order it from japan
What's the highest psi you can use while keeping the fuel stock
How long is a piece of string?
Perhaps I wasn't being clear enough sir.
On a hilux 2.8 3L what would be the highest amount of psi using for example a CT20 turbo with the fuel at the base amount.
Not thinking a stupid number like 44psi was thinking 16psi at the most but was curious what a professional would say on the matter.
The lowest boost needed to achieve the desired result is how we tune. All depends on the configuration and test on the day.
Hey mate. I got the old 1993 4wd Hiace with this engine and been having some problems. Used to be very hard to start in mornings and has a severe lack of power and goes through a lot of fuel. I got the pump replaced recently and havnt seen much change at all. Wondering what you think the best bet to do is? Change injectors? Cheers.
Must see a Diesel guy is best eanswer.
Mine had a similar problem..longer start, engine shake that smoothens out as it heated up, black smoke, low pick up and high fuel consumption. Calibrated the pump/ injectors still no good. Turn down fuel enrichment screw but no help. My problem was ultimately found out to be a tiny leak in the fuel primer assembly that caused the pump to not to hold pressure. Changed it and it was back to start on just turning the keys. Had to turn up the enrichment screw again but now no black smoke, good milage and much better response. Just a tiny leak in primer and it took me two years to solve it.🤦
Pretty sad, I have a Hilux 3.0L yr 2000 and I'm 3rd owner 1st owner was council and records show first service was 37,000km then after that at very random intervals up to 20,000km apart up to 100,000km odometer. 2nd owner serviced every 5000km and now me 3rd owner service every 5000 but I just hope not much damage was caused from first owner.....
hey LINK ASSY, ACCELERATOR how should i have because someone who own it be for have it should it set to make the cable tight or lose
Hi Berrima, do you think I could run into issues turning up the fuel on a naturally aspirated 2.8?
Smoke will stop you on a normally aspirated Diesel well before you can do damage.
I have a Toyota Hilux 2001 model 3 l diesel non turbo. And it just came off it's engine mounts and stuff the engine. Just wanted to ask how easy it would be to put a 3L turbo engine in it?
Hi I have a 96 LN109 2.8 NA. Changed the clutch on it recently as a beginner mechanic. No problems there but have T-belt and battery dash lights with a constant beep not going away even with the alternator terminal disconnected and the battery negative disconnect to reset the system. Am I in need of a new alternator or did I pinch some wires when pulling the exhaust out for the clutch ? Any thoughts ?
Hmmmm possible wiring. bad Earth.?
Mine is losing power on hills, blowing a bit of black smoke too. New injectors?
and importantly expert fuel pump fine tuning on car
Can I put extractors from a 5l 3ltr. On to my 3l 2.8l?. Both non turbo.
Try it I guess if it fits then great!
I have a 1992 2.8 diesel hilux extra cab, it's done over half a million km and had a full timing kit put in 10 months ago. Yesterday ,going slowly down hill, there was a slapping sound and the engine cut out . When attempting to re-start it spun over as if there was no compression in all cylinders. My question is; do these engines bend valves when a timing belt fails?
Most likely will have done damage. Sadly!
@@BerrimaDiesel End of engine , I'll hear from the Repco mechanics that installed the full timing kit about 3500 km ago. Thanks mate.
Choice videos. Great channel. Can anyone please advise me, if the old sluggish 2.4 diesel Toyota Hilux model ln65r ,what have the alloy-top type motors, can be repowered with one of these 2.8 diesel motors. Or not ?
Yeah its a common swap to put a 3L or 5l in, my ln46 (model before yours) originally had an L then was upgraded to a 2L, now it has a 3L, its a good reliable engine
@@Colt45hatchback nice one. Did you need to change engine sump . Someone told me there might be something extra required to allow repower
@@slimdusty6328 i think thats just if you use an independent suspension vehicles engine, the 2wd hilux and the later ifs 4wd ones have different sumps and hiace and hilux 2wd usually have an oil cooler which the oil filter comes out on a different angle which will hit your diff pumpkin
@@Colt45hatchback oh ok. Cheers for info. Mine is solid front axle diff set up with leaf springs
@@slimdusty6328 yeah nice same as mine, an ln106 3L engine will bolt in without any sump changes, but depending on the fan and waterpump (theres a couple different types) it may be a tight fit with the radiator. I cant remember which combination of waterpump and clutch fan hub i used. Might have been a 2L waterpump with my original fan and clutch, or maybe it was the 3L fan hub with a 2L fan i honestly cant remember. I end up changing to an electric fan so the clearance isnt an issue now. Im using a fan from a mitsubishi magna/verada v6 with the two lower speeds wired to temp sensors, and the third speed wired to a switch which is handy if you get bogged and need to have it under full load with no road speed for an extended period
I’ve got a 94 same engine and is a LN106, can’t seem to find a match for the clutch assembly. The pressure plate and disc are all too small on the kits I’ve ordered. Any chance you know of a kit that would fit or if there is a conversion kit available?
Sorry dont do clutches and driveline stuff
Hey mate, i have an ln106 2.8L Non-turbo diesel fully rebuilt engine and i got it going this year for the first time in 3 years (bear in mind engines rebuilt) and now theres a loud clapping sound like it sounds like a lifter or bottom end bearing but im confused as to how that works from sirting there for 3 years and its rebuilt
Gotta see it to diagnose it I guess
Hi Andrew, i live in WA and have a 1996 LN106. Do you have anyone over here who fits your turbo kits?
Hi
No sorry but when people buy them from us away from su a good normal mechanic can do the install even support over the phone if need be
Hey mate any thoughts on the ln167r the 2001 models ( non-turbo)
Yes mate what about?
@@BerrimaDiesel hey mate how much psi would you run in one of these? I have one just done a full engine rebuild, and now I'm chasing a little bit more power. Still want the engine to be safe of course but I would like to know what I could get out of it.
It depends how the AFR exhaust ratios respond during dyno settings.
Andrew i have one of these 2.8L hilux 1992 ...black oil, fuel rich, sluggish. Would adding a snorkel help much?
Not really. A Turbo will... More Air. Lean and Clean.
Im having an issue with my 1990 Hilux with a 3L. I was only getting between 12.5 and 13.2 volts on the battery while running (or directly off the alternator) I replaced the Alternator hoping to get up to the 14 or better that everyone says I should be getting. new alternator gets 11.5 to 12.3. So I replaced the voltage regulator. No change. I cant figure out what's going on, anyone have any suggestions? Also I'm in the US so I cant take it to an auto parts store to have the alternator checked they don't have the adapters to fit my alternator. This is my first diesel so Im not sure if there is something different.
Thanks for the oil change tip! Ill be changing mine a lot. This motor only has 49km btw (24k miles). Any other care tips for this motor would be greatly appreciated.
Maybe check your glow plug relay
same engine 574000 k's done
How's she holding up now? Just bought a pretty clean old hilux with the same engine!
Thinking of buying a 4runner with a 225000km 3L, how many KMs do you reckon these 3Ls can get to before they need a rebuild?
All depends on sefrive history. A well maintained Diesel can last nearly indefinately......
My toyota 2.8lt diesel pump its leaking diesel model 1997 pls help me
We need your car here sorry
Hello sir. How to adjust the fuel ratio on 5LE engine

Hi
Looking at buying the LN106 with Hilux.
What should I be asking the seller?
Cameron
For a full service and repair history to be safe
is it hard to put in a new Radiator for the ln106r bc my leaking from the hose thing
Very easy job to swap a radiator in the ln106
@@Waingro_ thank you what the Fan Clutch -
hello i put these motor in my hilux because 5L broke cranckshaft (common in other 5L) but i don´t know where the oil sensor switch is located in the block in my new 3L , can you help me please.?
@@BerrimaDiesel thanks you
What transmission came on the 2.8l 4wd manuals?
The g52. This one looks young enough to have a chain drive which are the weak ones. Apparently the older gear driven ones were stronger
Importing 2 96 Hiace trucks with the 3L 2.8 Diesel engine into the USA...Question, what is the proper oil filter to use? I haven't seen a definitive answer yet online-- possibilities: FRAM PH8A, Toyota: 90915-30002 (if this is a silly question because you all are in Australia my apologies***)
Sorry but not sure on that number
How many kms do they get before rebuild?
Weve seen them with 600, 700 thousand km
Change it every 4000km oil at filter is cheap
My car from to Tanzania
👌
Hi Andrew, what oil do you recommend in these engines? My current 3l sits at 455,000 and I’ve been running Penrite 15w-50 in it since about 340,000. Unsure if I should be running 15-40 or 20-60 or even another brand, say Caltex Delo 400. Anyways, let me know what you reccomend, thanking you!
all depends on where you live - temps etc
@@BerrimaDiesel Mackay - Queensland . So temps in summer 31-40•
I think anything in the 40 weight range is fine.
Can air filter cause power loss?
Yes
I lost a lot of hp the same engine
2.8 don't be late
👍
do you know if this engine is interference or non interference
?
@@BerrimaDiesel will it wreck the engine if the timing belt snaps
A Diesel yes most likely
Any difference between Nissan 2.8l and Toyota 2.8l diesel motor? Thanks.
2 cylinders.....
is my 2.8l too laye now haha
👍👏👏🇧🇷💯
✔️
Diesel without a turbo? Useless.
This engine had no egr or dpf. It mets no environmental regulations an shoud not be on the rd!!
Why should it not be on the road?
@@blokebeershed7651 because is killing us with every puff of black smoke each gear change. Mechanical injection diesels are banned in most of the 1st world.
@@flyingrc2041 your a sook mate, if you dont like it, fuck off
Blake Whitehouse 😂😂😂
this engine is gold, because can be alive at least 3 times others motors and 10 times chinese cars this contaminated less
