- This video is a painful step by step version on how to rebuild the 2AZFE engine from a 2009 Scion TC. there aren't any videos like this online so for those who want to tackle this job but need a visual on what they are about to encounter or a video reference for other engine builders to use as a reference here you go. this video is only for rebuilding, the first part (removal & tear down) can be found on my channel. if you subscribe it will give me an indication that it helped someone to some degree and I would greatly appreciate it.
During the installation of the 8 bolts of the countershaft housing, it was noted by one of the viewers that the torque isnt verbally clear. To ensure this is not left unanswered I will note here that the correct torque is 15ft lbs with 90* turn. Thank you!

You my friend has helped me very much. Bought a 05 Scion tC with a really bad rod knock on #3 and after watching your 2 videos decided to rebuild the motor. I just finished the rebuild 2 days ago and she's purring like a kitten. I really appreciate all the effort u put in to make your videos as detailed as possible, I'm very grateful. God bless you
That is great to hear! Dont forget to subscribe to the channel. I'm working on some fresh content to post soon
i bought an 08 tc RS 4.0 with terrible rod knock on #3 as well... fuckin 2az's...
@@volanabjorgeson8439 You would think a 4.0 wouldn't come with 1.0 issues.
@@kramnull8962 ID expect that the car I dropped 4 large for wouldn't IMMEDIATELY brick on me.
@@volanabjorgeson8439 Yes, I'm in the same boat. Well except I got 17 good years of service. Hope you got it going again.
JUSTE WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!! thanks bro.
you're welcome! please subscribe!
Yo, the bolt for the chain tensioner by the oil pump is not 14ft/lb. It is 9. Broke mine off by following that instruction. Other than that, this has been a great help in rebuilding my 2AZFE. Thank you.
I’d like to add some things and please take it as advice and not me being a know it all. I appreciate you taking the time to do this video to be extremely helpful to many many people. One thing about balancing is as follows: the rotating assembly is balanced (not perfectly by any means I know) at the factory with the weights of the rods, pistons, wrist pins, rings, bearings, etc. Therefore, if you change the rod, piston, wrist pin, etc. weights, you are actually unbalancing the rotating assembly. Technically you should weight match all the parts to their corresponding parts, ie. pistons to pistons and rods to rods, etc. Then you take it to a machine shop and have the rotating assembly balanced. This is the best way to do a proper balance job. Then, as far as oil clearances, you can mic the rod and main journals of the crankshaft and, if they are within specification, you can purchase standard bearings and recheck the clearances. One might say “what average Joe has a set of micrometers?” To this I say 3 things. 1) To do the rebuild properly, it helps to have these tools along with bore gauges and other measuring tools. 2) you can purchase dial calipers accurate to .0005” for fairly cheap. 3) Machine shops can measure journals and recommend proper bearing sizes. Therefore, you have 2 affordable options at hand. Additionally, if you are checking rod bearing (crank side) diameters with a bore gauge, inside micrometers, or telescoping gauges with outside micrometers, ALWAYS clamp the rod in a vise with soft jaws or in a rod holding fixture to torque the caps down with bearings installed for measurements. There are other things I could mention but I’m getting ready for bed. Again, this information should be advice only and not me being a know it all. There are other mechanics who have been doing this much longer than I have (20 years) and they may have better suggestions or want to correct me. I welcome constructive criticism and more efficient knowledge on mechanizing. Thank you for the video and have a great day! God bless you all!!!!!! Brett
love the rebuild process though
I love my 09 scion xb did a road trip 2x from Chicago to Phoenix and back nonstop it did excellent . 180000 miles I only averaged 72 mph cuz gear ratio is too high I was at 3100 RPMS. I'm keeping the car forever. I think a 373 gear would be perfect with a little more HP . God willing I can do that someday . my xb is a manual transmission and it did very well through very high mountain passes . it actually did better than my FJ cruiser which really surprised me. I hope this a good testament on how well the xb really is compared to kia soul and other cars in it's class. If scion would had the gear ratio lower with a little more HP they would of knock it outta the park. The car never failed me. I'm very grateful. Thanks for the video and God Bless .
You don't understand how automotive design works. The engine is used in many other vehicles, same with the transmission to hit a price point. It would be very expensive to design and build an engine and transmission for each model. The XB2 is very well balanced with the options they had to choose from compared to the XB1. The XB1 was under powered with it's smaller engine. The XB2 however uses the engine from the TC.
dealership agreed to do my rings. I'm hoping they know how to do this right. My engine was never run low on oil and has 106,000, so I don't expect any abnormal wear or damage.
Machine shop accidentally washed off the number markers on piston heads.
Anyway I can tell which piston goes to which cylinder ?
I’m seeing different numbers on the rods but not sure which is correct
Hi my friend nice video very complete. Will you provide the link for all toque specifications that you used
Great Video.. ! i will be using this as reference in the next week or two to rebuild my own engine.. question. what pistons did you use in the rebuild. while my pistons are probably ok, since the issue i had was a bent rod. im looking to just replace both rods and pistons.
Pete Molina the customer decided to purchase the pistons from enginepartsonly.com at the moment he has put over 15k miles and no issues so they appear to function good.
Nice video. after starting the engine I noticed a weird noise and I think it's coming from the balance shaft sprocket. I don't see any abnormal wear but I noticed on mine it has a play on the the two gear sprocket, is this normal? I understand they may be spring loaded but my question is how to know how much play there should be.
I wouldn't be able to tell you where your issue is but I can tell you that a stretched chain will cause rattling, however in this case there isnt much load applied to the chain since it's on tensioned by a spring. Also something to look for is wear on the chain guides, this could potentially make it sound like the chain is stretched but it's only being subjected to the slack by worn guides. I hope this helps
which group of bolts are torch to yield ones
TTY or torque to yield bolts are the main cap bolts and the head bolts.
Just so you know. Brass is NOT softer than aluminum. Only a specially ordered "soft brass" wheel is softer than alu. Also, brass + aluminum = corrosion
what rebuild kit did you use ?also did you use stock pistons?
Enginepartsonly.com also I did not use stock pistons because they are the cause of failure. I used an aftermarket updated version from the same website
@@manuelbou thank you very much ! Any idea if all aftermarket sets or pistons are. Revised and updated ?
your suppose to grace a light film of it on everything bearings and piston rods
Thank you for sharing your opinion.
Lina bandera de fondo
Nicely done, I really appreciate your attention to the details! My son and I are about to do a Tc tear down for low oil pressure and excessive thrust bearing play, your video is a very helpful resource. Thank you.
I'm sure it's not a big deal but the Toyota TSB S-SB0024-11 specifically shows the horns of the oil control ring expander pointing down.
Sorry one more comment here. I can't for the life of me find the torque specs for the transmission bell housing to engine, or the flex plate to torque converter. I know this engine was a manual but if anybody can point me in the right direction, would be much appreciated. So close to getting this bastard back in!
I need to rebuild my Toyota Camry engine. This will help a lot! A rebuild kit is a lot less expensive than a remanufactured engine, and a lot more reliable than just buying a used engine. Rod came off yesterday after 230k miles.
I'm glad you liked it. I did 3 years of instructing too.
@@manuelbou @ Importworx,how can one get reference manual?
one question though what is the difference between 2014 and 2015 engine?, I keep seeing 2014 2.4 2azfe and 2015 2.52azfe? whats the difference?
Revised pistons from factory.
I used your video to Rebuild my daughters Scion Tc. Low oil caused #3 bearing to spin. It was a complete success. Thankyou So much!
Great video. Im a honda guy and built a few motors and done a ton to them, but just getting into scions. They seem to have some extra stuff to them
Jermaul West correct, honda engines are very basic. Toyota has more parts but it's more failure points if you ask me. I don't like how the oil pump is internal or how the balance shafts are designed.
Hey I'm in the middle of a rebuild, I can't figure out what O ring you're talking about at 1:03:00
Can I just get any rubber o ring that fits or is there a specific part name/number for it? I'm pretty sure I've got the same pdf as you do in the video but I can't find it mentioned.
Good question. You can use any o ring if you can't find it individually, the only thing to look for is to ensure the new o ring is raised when laid down. Meaning it has to sit higher than everything so it can seal. When it gets squished. Also a little dab of rtv will help a lot. IIRC the oring came as part of the lower pan rebuild kit.
@@manuelbou holy shit man, didn't actually expect a reply on a 4yr old video. Videos have been insanely helpful so far. Thank you for all you do my man!
This video (and the previous tear-down video) have been extremely valuable to me. Thanks so much for taking the time to walk us all thru this process, and the instruction you provided as well. I owe you a beer!
If you don't mind me asking. What was the oil pressure problem that you found? I purchased a 09 Scion tC recently with an oil pressure problem and can't figure out what is causing it.
I never put it on top dead center as I install the head. I always put it halfway on a upstroke to top dead center, this way all the Pistons end up on a half stroke and you can install the head and without even thinking about bending the valves, then you can slowly put it on top dead center after you've lined up the cams to install the timing chain or belt whatever the case may be.
Great tip. Even a a slight ding can be a start to issues. Thanks
Youre so wrong here bron. Tdh will never tough your head and it has to be at tdc to time it correctly as you put the head on
@@xESPplayer500x I'm not gonna bother explaining this to you because you're clearly not an auto mechanic and you wouldn't understand. I'm an ASE certified mechanic, I believe you're a UA-cam mechanic at best 🤣🤣😂 Have a nice day.
@@xESPplayer500x BTW.... don't you know that before you hit TDC there's an area where all piston are midway of a stroke? Then you can safely install the head, afterwards you turn the crankshaft clockwise till it's at TDC to install the timing belt with ease without risking bending any valves
@@ricgomez1 i use to work on an engine building assembly line. So come back you know something about auto mechanics 😂
Leave the detailed work for people who jave a brain.
I didn't know how important it is to check for factory values and specifications until now. Tnx for this detailed video.
It doesn’t come naturally as I don’t use the system much and I’m certainly not a machinist. But I remember this by using something we all know and love(?) ... money!!! A tenth of a dollar, is a dime. Ten cents, written: $0.10 One cent is written: $0.01 and we all know that is one-hundredth(s) of a...whatever. Making 0.001 next in order. “One-thou” as Old Tony would say. Hope this helps anyone else- I know it turned a light on in my dark room...
I know this is late but do have a link to where you got the rebuilt kit from??
Brass is NOT softer than aluminum FYI. Brass is 3 mohs, aluminum is at best 3 with some grades going down to 2.5. Should probably have use a really stiff nylon brush instead(or a thick nylon brush wheel hooked up to your angle grinder)
Hey Thanks man, my mom's car has that infamous oil consumption...I found out about this out right after the warranty period. I'm thinking about doing the rebuild, sell the car, or just keep adding oil. so far its consuming a quart a month...thanks #toyota for telling us about the problem.
Gentlemen I'm dropping right in. l am too, part of the high oil consumption club. We are brothers. 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️ 2007 Camry LE
I'm almost finished with the assembly, but there is a plug I have no idea what it is to? If you're looking at the back of the engine, on the right side by the intake manifold there is a small round two prong black plug. It has a very short cord to it. I believe it's shown on page 49 of the Engine Mechanical in the service manual but doesn't list what it is.
How long did the machine shop take? Mine took 41 days to pressure test the valves, degrease the block and heads, and bore and hone the cylinders. LOL. Fucking ridiculous.
Good to know about the “camshaft caps” but my dumb ass put em on the floor in prep to get em on and managed to step right on one and turned the o into a 0.. didnt crack but had to try and bend it back to round the bestni could. But fyi if anybody bends one or anything dont attempt to fix it. Its a waste of time., just get the number out the inside of it and go get another ordered from toyota.. because it wont fit right. The tolerances on those things are tighter than the naacp was to blm..
I never understood what the purpose of putting the same piston back in the same spot as where they came out if youre replacing all bearings with a std bearing, have the cylinders honed so nothings the same after and no reason why to..
Hey, im replacing the crankshaft connecting rod bearings on my 07 tc, just to be clear are the bolst torqued to 18 or 15 ft ponds + 90°...
Great video with attention to details. Thanks for sharing
Great video, im watching because i just seized my engine on my 08 scion tc. Oil consumption sucks. Your video was very helpful. Iv replaced a 318 on an 84 dodge d150 but not a scion yet. Im getting a rebuilt for 1800.00. I was quoted 5k to replace from a shop. Thats too much
How’s the rebuild so far? I heard these engines can’t be bored/honed because they come with a sprayed liner. Compression still good?
Its been great. A while back the customer called to let me know how great everything has been but after hundreds of vehicles I go thru this is one I made a video about. There is nothing in the factory manual keeping you from honing nor does it mention anything against it. I got it honed which is critical to piston ring break-in and seating.
Alright thanks, wish me luck. I’ll let you know if anything goes well or bad. Just waiting on the new pistons and gaskets.
I see you properly used your ACU to blend in with the aluminum 😂 great video!
This is the same engine on the 2004 Toyota Camry right?
Yes
Where can I go to get the manual you have on the computer? Looking to find a procedure for the rebuild
Great video. I'm about to rebuilt mind, but idk from where to get my rebuilt kit. Please any recommendations??
7:42 what do you mean “preservative”? What is that called and where can I get it?
Basically I meant to use assembly fluid to cover bare parts
Probably one of my favorite 2AZ-FE build videos.
Whatsup man, I'm sure i will be using this vid to help me in the future. How did you know that you had a cracked piston? You didn't have one of the mistake motors that were dealing with oil consumption? My 07 is going on 220k miles and have always dealt with oil top off but recently it's starting to discolor after 800 miles.
I didnt know i had a cracked piston. But I knew there was a major internal problem due to the consumption of oil. So what ended up being the issue is that oil would sling up thru the cracked piston and burn oil during the combustion cycle.
An easy way to tell would be performing a compression check, low to no psi would be an indicator of this.
Your oil going darker at 800 miles doesn't mean anything you should worry about. A simple oil change does mix with a bunch of old trapped oil that doesn't drain so its common for it to mix and look darker at that mileage point. As long as you're not burning oil away, the color shouldn't get any darker than dark bronze in between oil changes.
@@manuelbou Appreciate the reply. By me saying oil top off it's a little more serious than a few tablespoons every 1000 miles like a regular older car. I'm adding about a quart every 800 maybe. I will perform a compression check when i get a chance and get back to you on the results. Only reason im somewhat content with it is no signs of smoke out the tailpipe/bumper stains and no gummed up spark plugs.
@@manuelbou ok so i did a comp test and got 170,170,173 and 180. One thing i did notice out of the ordinary was the spark plugs had a lot of white/burn/corrosion, first cylinder had the most. Last time i changed them was about a year ago.
Hi, I had sent my xb to a dealer to have piston rings replaced under toyota warranty for excessive oil consumption.
My car came back with a lower engine balancer issue and the dealer said it's not their fault. They said they only replaced the rings and pistons and did not touch the bottom half of the engine.
Is this true?
I don't 100% believe them. The crankcase needs to be removed to replace the piston rings. This means the balancers came off from the crankshaft. If the balancers were replaced with misaligned timing, that could result in an issue.
A little more prep and editing and this would be a killer video.
the cam is half the speed of the crank bud.. but nice attention to detail.
Infamous 2AZFE engines from Toyota. It marked the start of downturn of Toyota quality.
Wow. great video. My 2006 Scion tC burns oil but I have been doing engine soaks to loosen and remove the carbon buildup around the piston rings. It seems to be working. An engine rebuild would probably be too expensive. Excessive oil consumption even for new cars is a problem as automobile manufacturers try to meet EPA standards and regulations.
Did the oil jets have a ball inside?
Yes
For the head bolts im sorry but you said 10point hex? Or did you mean to say a hollow 10mm 12point torx socket ? Im confused tbh idk what socket i need to use..
Good job on the vid and clean work by the way. Attention to detail, nice. I'm curious as to where you got your rebuild kit and more importantly, what brand did you go with? Most of what I see is the dnj or epo as far as complete rebuild kits go. Any experience with either? Motor is already down to the block, machine shop, order parts and get this thing together with your help. Any additional tips or advice would be appreciated. Btw is a coated piston recommended on this build? Thank you
Thank you for the compliment. Just used my phone and an old laptop to cut the vids anyways, I used enginepartsonly.com master rebuild kit. I do have prior experience with those aforementioned brands(DNJ etc.) They arent really that bad, I haven't used them on my cars but on the customer cars and they haven't ever came back complaining about any issue due to part failures. And lastly a coated piston does have its advantages but the OE replacement piston for this engine is sufficient and you dont need all those extra features unless you just want to spend the money. I'm here and willing to help you through your rebuilding
@@manuelbou Sincerely appreciate the reply. Thank you.
Don't double torque. Ever. With the torque being followed by a 90 deg turn it's not as critical, but just don't do it. It's a very bad habit to have.
It seems you should understand what are TTY (torque to yield) bolts. They are designed to stretch and hold their torque by design that way. Please ensure you apply all manufacturers steps when blue printing an engine otherwise you may experience internal damage or shortened build life.
@@manuelbou It's funny to me that your reply has nothing to do with my comment about double torquing. Did you mistakenly reply to the wrong comment? Blueprinting has nothing at all to do with torque. Replying to a comment with unrelated facts is childish. I had the utmost respect for you for putting this video out to help us but a reply like that is completely useless.
Excellent vid.
Had piston and rings done at dealer, 09 matrix xre 2.4l now car vibrates alot in gear at stop light. Any idea whats happening? They looked at mounts and cleaned throttle. Still same.
Yes, it is possible that they reinstalled the counter balance shafts incorrectly, its a design to absorb natural engine vibration from a 4 cyl, how ever it is very easy to mistakenly instal them 180* out, causing the effect of a vibration. what is funny is that in the toyota engine manual for the assembly for that part is shown upside down, so if the mechanic didnt catch that he may have installed it wrong. good luck to you.
Also can be a PCV valve that needs replaced. I have a 2007 Camry with the 2AZ-FE and before a rebuild, my car had the famous vibration/shudder at stop lights.
Any idea if the 2012 Scion Xb vin 1 has the same engine like 2007 toyota camry? I need to swap the engine for my 2007 camry and need to know if these two engines are the same to purchase and swap it. Thank you
Does a engine rebuild solve the oil Consumption problem associated with these cars
zeppelin brown only if you use the updated pistons
What manual are you using tor your torque and sequence specs at 21:03? I'm looking at Alldata and the torque is 40Nm/90° and the sequence is from the middle cap going out. Oil Nozzle 62 in.lbs. Nice video.
the waater pump uses an o-ring gasket!
I just fully built my 2az race motor myself. Insane amount of work when you’re doing the head and all lol. Came here out of boredom to check your work. I wouldn’t mind you rebuilding a motor of mine haha. Nice video!
Hey Chase! Didn't expect to see you the comments. This is David btw.

Yoooo chase i follow you on insta great job with that turbo xb
Btwlb Productions Haha no way, that’s awesome man! Glad to hear you like it. It’s almost on the road!
What pistons did you use? Oem or aftermarket? Also did you see any variations in pistons for sale vs what you pulled? I was told there were like 2 different sets of pistons what went into these engines.
one of the best videos nice!! gracias saludos de guadalajara :)
I got a question what r those little parts stick on each cylinders?
I think you are asking about the oil jets.
during assembly they put oil
12 point. BiHex head bolts
Good day,Sir where I could go the instruction web site can you reply please,Thank you very much
Did you have the crankshaft balanced with adding different rods and pistons?
No because it is not necessary. It is factory balanced and any micro inconsistency is mitigated by the crankshaft damper. Acts as a counterbalance mechanism.
@@manuelbou thanks man, I really appreciate it! Thanks again for making the videos!
I really want to bring my car's engine to you and work with you. This is so inspiring.
Very good video, question is it possible to get a copy of the repair manual, Ijust started a rebuilt on a 2005 TC, Thanks
importworx Excellent video. very clean rebuild. You know your way around this engine. BTW, is there any chance you can share the pdf manual for this engine.
Give me your email
jiraheta gmail
did you send it? havent received anything.
Another question. you said you gave the short block a coat of alumaseal? is it in a spray? can you care to elaborate on this? thanks
@@manuelbou my email is ericwodeya@gmail.com
Why does it have the slapping nose?
Do you use rtv to seal the engine and transmission together? Also what's the torque spec for bolts
I have a 09 toyota matrix xrs with 2azfe and standard transmission. Does scion tc aftermarket parts fit the matrix.
Did you say 60 or 16 ftlb on the counter balance shaft cover?
Raleigh Jones I had to reopen the manual for it, and it is 15ft lbs, then 90. I will make a note on the description. It's been so long I cant remember much other than what's on the video for the most part.
Ok cool, it felt a little tight and wasn't but halfway there. Thanks for the video though.
Excellent video.
Sir. I have a question - I have the Toyota Yaris 1.8 TS 2ZR-FE engine the car have 85.000 miles..as we know, this engine has a chain. Does the timing chain on a Toyota Yaris need to be replaced? I regularly serviced car (oil, all filters...etc) recently changed the water pump + the engine sounds great.
You do not have to replace the timing chains on it ever. The only time you would is if there is an issue with the chain guides or the chain itself.
i'm confused about the step where we go from oil pump chain installation to lining up marks up top. I have 2 versions of the shop man for 2azfe, and one calls for placing crank spline at 12oclock immediately after oil pump chain. It THEN calls for bringing no. 1 piston to TDC.. Okay, but that changes orientation of spline, does it not? I wish you'd been a little more detailed at the point where you actually put the timing chain in place. Otherwise, I think this a terrific video. (Please see mine on unlocking the VVTI mechanism) THANKS!
You are correct! I do not know what happened to that part of the clip?!?! very wierd. how ever once you line up the oil pump chain the timing chain has the orange clips. just line those up once the camshaft arrows are pointing at their respective targets. and of course the no.1 piston should be at the TDC
At 35:18 you state that 0.33mm is bigger than 0.32mm by one tenth of a mm, this is a difference of 0.01mm, one hundredth not one tenth. You seem a bit confused by anything to the right of the decimal point, this happens a few times in this video. 0.10 = tenth, 0.01 = hundredth, 0.001 = thousandth, 0.0001 = ten thousanth. So to be clear, to be one tenth larger than 0.32mm you would putting a 0.42mm feeler guage in the gap and that would be way out of spec. You make good videos but you really need to get this decimal stuff sorted out.
Thank you! I realize my machinist lingo was incorrect so I made sure I captured the tolerances on screen from the manual to compensate for my error. I will sure continue to learn and correct mistakes. Thank you for your feedback!
What about the bucket lifters? Did i miss the part on the 0 clearance and how to adjust the "cups" within specs.
When the damn things starts tapping and sounding like a diesel engine, can the flex or bend if, some lobes appear tighter than the others?
I ask because, thats what happened to me remanufactured engine and some cambolts were way tighter than others and the valve lifter clearance was off all over. Following the book, it seems some lifters are jumping from a #42 to a #67 and the like. Is that the lobe being worn or could it be the cam is ever slightly bent? It ran great until about 10k miles and then, a galloping sound started and kept getting a multi cyl misfiring. Then, tapping a week later. Some lifters had 0 or more.. meaning i couldnt get a feeler gauge under lobe. It could be too tight but, i dont know considering other valves were .08 to .13. To .28 to .34.
I opted for some bc cams and springs but, still have to hope i dont have to spend extra buying buckets to suppliment for the 0 valve clearance. I was hoping you had a simplified verion on the math of it all. If, bolting down cam over and over to measure for the randomness of those stupid buckets, doing the math and then finding the correct # of the bucket to make uo for the clearance would cause and undo harm....or am i complicating all of this should just grab whatever bucket and yell out a huge mexican grito and pray to our lady of Guadalupe in hopes i dont have to go through this shit again. The grito is what i imagine was done on the remanufatured engine considering the inconsistencies of the valve clerances between each valve on each cylinder.
You know damn well that music was playing when the engine was rebuilt. Its not racist if its true. Its mainly to humor me through this time of mourning. Its like 30 days without bass. I miss my car.
That was a good read. So I saw how much of a pain in the ass the caps were going to be that I just marked them numerically and then reinstalled in their original spots. The head didnt get any extra treatment for the build other than hot tanked and resurfaced.
Otherwise you would have to install what you have, measure, exchange as necessary and buy replacement #s as needed.
I hope your rebuild goes well.
when doing a rebuild like this do you HAVE to resurface the block ?
1:30:29 What is making that tapping sound when engine is idling?
Valves most likely. It appears to me that he basically just reused the head without replacing anything and the clearences are probably not exact but it does not hurt anything. These valves arent really adjustable unless you replace those buckets with ones that increase or decrease the clearance based on how far off it is.
Nice, worx, what would this cost on a 2007 scion tc, pull, rebuild and install back, I'm using a quart per 1k? I started using that amount about 80k and Toyota did the oil consumption test and turned me down, I think they didn't want to spend the money, not sure if my engine was the type they had the problem with? How long would this take if I brought it to u and where would I stay bcux I'm out of town, like a motel for a few nights?
Thank you for being intrested to do business with me. This is about a 6k dollar job at a shop and I charge half of that however I am unable to do any work as I am overseas on an assignment.
where did you get the manual?
Have you purchased a tripod?
Whats the cost of something like this
Hey were in the book do I find all the rebuild kit or can u tell me about what u are using on the computer help me please
Nice vid man I should be rebuilding mine very soon can you hook me up with that service manual?
You would make an excellent auto shop teacher!
Hello. I am slowly building this engine and with your awesome help I am not into the step on I stalling the crankshaft main bearings and followed by the Piston rods, I am aware the thrust washers will help prevent the crankshaft from not moving forward and back when accelerating, my question is should it be any play when Installing the Piston rods? I noticed there is play after installing the rod bearings. I used the standard bearings but can't understand why they move back and forth.
There shouldn't be any noticeable play as the required gap is only for oil passages. There may be a possibility that you have undersize bearings.
Oops, I was signed in as my partner, just now. I'm the one with the question about the actual chain replacement. I have the video that demonstrates how to unlock the VVTI. My bad about being signed in as Meg lol..
Interested in doing another one??
Great information in this video.
This guy knows more than the Toyota dealer.
How much hp do you think this motor can make, if it’s built without forced induction??
Who is the lucky s.o.b who got this engine 😅
A customer who knew the value of my work 😁
Im in middle of this on an 06 scion TC. Not for the faint of heart for sure.
What kinda engine kit are you using? My 06 has 175+ on it and wanna do a engine rebuild as soon as possible.
how did you know which valve cup belong where? Did machine shop give you a diagram of where they should sit?
During removal I marked every cup to its original position.
But the alternative way would be to measure every valve cup, record it and try to match the cup sizes you have and then order the sizes you need.
Hey great video. I am ready to install the lower crankcase/balance shaft housing to the block. I know it is sealed with rtv, but I am nervous because there are a couple of tiny little oil paths/gallows on the surface and not much room between them and the outside surface. Do you have any suggestions for how you applied the rtv in that area? Thanks in advance.
Sorry for late reply, those small paths are actually for rtv to pool up into it to provide a thicker seal where a flat surface wouldn't be able to provide. Basically adds girth seal to those areas. It's not for oil
Are your main bearings oem? I ordered what i had inside motor as factory and I have 2 numbered as #3 and 3 numbered as #2, did not record what min each came from so install should be fun
The numbers are based on the block code. You must read the crank markings and block markings to determine what size bearings you need. Not all cranks are cut equal, when they are cut at the factory its measured for the best fitting bearing for it.
This is one of the best bideo i ever see about rebuild engine good job amigo
