1994 4x4 4runner engine size?

thanks all in advance.

I am sitting in Las Vegas at my brothers house on vacation. Since I was bored, I decided to start researching doing my own timing belt change. However, I cannot remember the generation or engine size of my truck. I dont have it with me or my manuals. It is a 5 speed stick and 6 cylinders.

I had my timing belt changed at 60k miles. My truck is now at 110k miles and I thought I need to change the belt before it breaks.

Anyone know what my generation truck I have and engine size? Any write ups on timing belt would be also helpful. Yes, I should know my engine size, but honestly, I have three cars. My 4Runner I barely use or work on because it is such a great truck I am trying to preserve and take care of it. Any assistance would be appreciated...good karma to you. Thanks again

Ariel

If your timing belt was changed at 60k, it sure doesn't need changed again 50k later.... Mine has 214k on it...

They recommend changing them every 60K. You should be good till at least 120. I would change the waterpump at the same time because it will go next.
