Its a 4 cyl, gasoline. I just thought 22R/22RE's had their intake on the oposite side.

 

Don't know what that is, but it doesn't look anything like my 22REs in my 85 and 87 4Runners.

 

that is a diesel, I think.

 

It's a right hand drive, probably from overseas. You can see the steering shaft going down the right side of the engine. The brake booster is on the right hand side, as well as the distributor cap. It's not a 22RE. Toyota made many different 4 cylinder engines.

 

Oh sure, diesels have spark plugs and distributor caps...right.

 

First deisel I've seen with sprak plugs and runs off of gasoline!

 

i second the wabbits post, not a 22re. it would say '22re' on the front of the valve cover.

looks like a 4Y-E or something of that nature. they were used in the old toyota vans we had here, but they are still in production in forklifts.

not a lot of horsepower, but if my memory serves right, i saw a power graph of a newer model one on one of toyota's web sites, and it had something like 160lbs of torque! not bad for a 2.2l engine with 70hp.

they're a lot different than a 22R or 22R-E -- rather than an overhead cam design and hemi-style valve arrangement, they are a pushrod engine like an american V8, with shaft mounted rockers and inline valves.

 

I like the positioning of the oil filter... that would be helluva easy to change!

160 ft-lbs of torque? Dang. Are they just a longer stroke and a skinnier bore than a 22re?

 

oops, guess i read the measurement wrong -- it was 160n/m, not lbs. translates out to about 120lbs of torque.

 

Gotcha. 120 ft-lbs makes more sense for a 2.2L.

It's little mistakes like that which makes Mars landers crash

Silly SI system...

 

Yeah, it's alot harder to multiply or divide everything by 10 than 12 or 16 or some other random number

 

But come on... Newton * metres ?? kilowatts?? Could you imagine a seasoned down-home mechanic saying those words? "footpounz" and "horshpower" just sound so much better

 

Yeah, I'll agree with you that horsepower is probably the coolest unit ever.

 

Yeah, horsepower is a pretty cool unit. The origin is 1 horsepower = the amount of "work" an average horse could do in 1 minute. "Work" was measured in this case as an amount of weight lifted to a certain height (don't recall what the weights and height were).

 

personally i think the metric system should have just kept the same units and made them divisible by 10(e.g. metric foot = 10 metric inches). but then again, it was those silly french that came up with it.

 

Plus, when you have a good graphing calculator, units don't matter because you don't do any of the conversion or math in your head!

(I'm a mechanical engineering student, by the way )

 

I use one of these every day:

 

one Horsepower = 550 poundfeet/minute so that would be 550 pounds one foot in a minute or 1 pound 550 feet in a minute either would be one horsepower

 

All this math is making me dizzy
