This question is concerning 22re's. I was just wondering while wheeling today, what angles can our trucks go all the while not starving the engine of oil? I have personally done 45 degrees easily with the motor still running. Am I pushing my luck?

 

I have seen these motors run until driver shut down completely upside down. Fuel injection can be a bad deal in that sense.

 

its fine, if you flip over, turn it off

 

sounds good to me

 

All I know so long as its fuel injected it will keep on going no matter what the angle really.

My friend had his 89 truck up to almost a 6-75% degree and it was running the whole time.

 

True they will keep running, but i think he was asking at what angle will the engine be starved for oil, not fuel.

 

Probably a 60-75 degree cant, but were not talking your gonna sit up there for awhile, you go up the incline and back down in a matter of a few seconds.

 

well when i flipped the engine ran until i turned it off, wasnt knocking or anything. jsut when we got it flipped back over, it was blowin white smoke outta the exhaust for about 20 miles. lol.

 

that works unless you flop on the passenger side and the keys fall out, lol, that has happened to me more than once, Ive found that if i go all the way on my side the gauge will still show pressure for about 5-10 sec, the Toyota oil pans are pretty good for keeping oil on the pickup, Ive been in a very step nose down situation before where i was practically holding myself up with the steering wheel and i still had oil pressure
