    That cable in the engine fuse box that you’re telling everyone to yank up... you’re doing it wrong. Remove the bottom cover and squeeze (both sides)at the bottom of the plastic around that cable and it will effortlessly slide off.

      Rex H too bad this video didn’t come out a few weeks sooner i’m having to replace the 5sfe in my mr2 would’ve definitely come in handy especially sense it’s the first car i’ve worked on, but keep up the good work there needs to be more videos out there on how to do maintenance on mr2s

    Cool works! I have a question about replacing the timing belt do you need special tools to do the job yourself?

  • @Tanked66
    @Tanked66 2 місяці тому

    keep this stuff coming, i just got a 1991 MR2 so im counting on you. Would it be possible for you to list some of the obscure tools you ended up needing, if any?

  • @djbmr2
    @djbmr2 4 роки тому

    Good work. I did it the hard way with the engine still in the car. I would suggest changing the idler pulleys on the car as well as the water pump.

    That look between you at 6:11 is priceless. "Ah, Lachlan, what's the torque specification for axle nuts?" "No prob, we didn't even need the breaker bar!"

    @phoenixmistertwo8815 4 роки тому

    Commendable. I can do an Mr2 2nd gen in a weekend, that is, unless I come across stripped bolts at the fire wall. The Aw11, however, I can do easily in a Saturday.

  • @AnthonyJordanWairoaboyNZ
    @AnthonyJordanWairoaboyNZ 4 роки тому

    Aww come on bro!!!! Gotta do the engine reinstall 👍🤣 you guys are legends
    Maybe consider replacing some of the awkward bits like oil pump o rings, manifold gaskets and clean the fuel injectors whilst manifold is off...manually cleaning fuel injectors is essential

  • @Chasing80sToys

  • @travistuck4660
    @travistuck4660 23 дні тому

    I recently replaced oil pump gasket, valve cover gasket and oil pan gasket. Mark the timing best I could but in replacement I got it 1 tooth off. Timing is retarded by one tooth.. figure it would be simpler and more accurate to take the motor out and get it right the first time.. and love somebody else has a easy quick fix for this. If not that is my next step. My engine removal.
