It is broke down now. It was fuel injected I know the 22 re had a sticker on the front of the valve cover but it wasn't on it

According to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_engines the Fuel-Injected straight four is a 22R-E.

Better yet, 4Crawler says you have the engine code on the VIN plate. http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ToyVIN.shtml

Remember: none of this tells you what engine you pulled out of your 24-yr old truck. Who knows?

22r or re has exhaust on the drivers side.

88's came with either 22r with carb, 22re with efi, or 3.0 v6.

On a 1988 Pickup the only motor options were the 22RE 4-Cylinder or the 3.0 V6. The 22RE is inline and has TOYOTA prominently embossed on top of the valve cover. The 3.0 V6 has plastic EVERYWHERE.

Ok then it wad a 22 re ego then just like I thought. Do riddle me this how come when I call advance auto parts to get parts for it all their computers pull up for it is a 22 rec? Is that s diff version of it or r they crazy or what

B-Fake

The REC has the extra emissions crap required in California.

So its nothing major just emissions. Well good I'm in GA we don't have emissions lol

Luvmeye22re

I am probably wrong but I -think- the 22REC is the california model with more emissions equipment on a regular old 22RE. I'm pretty sure the block and internals are all the same.
