- Опубликовано: 25 сен 2022
- This Toyota 3.0 liter V6 1MZ-FE is in some of the most popular cars of its decade including Lexus RX300 and ES300, Toyota Camry, Highlander, Sienna, and Avalon. A close variant, the 3.3-liter 3MZ-FE, is in the same Toyota models plus Lexus RX330 and ES330. Re-setting the timing belt is straightforward thanks to the timing marks provided on the belt and the ease of aligning the marks on the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets and pulleys. The timing marks on the camshaft pulleys and the rear timing cover, and the timing marks on the block and crankshaft pulley are shown in detail. There is a difference in the configuration of the tensioner and tensioner pulley between certain models. This is covered in another video. It does not affect setting the timing marks.

Just bought a Toyota Harrier Airs 2003/09 model with 1Mz-FE 3000cc V6.
This video helps a lot.
Thanks for the 📹
Thank you for watching.
Love it. You make it so ONE can understand easily HOW to do this job. My knees stopped clacking after watching. A dealer in Chicago Heights, once just changed the timing belt on my Toyota Celica GTS. They did not change the idler bearing/tensioner. There was a LOUD bearing noise but they made me believe it was normal. Months later the beaaring seized and snap went the belt. I would like the Aisin Kit number... researching now. Aisin is part of Toyota
Right on!
TKT-004 is the timing belt kit.. this worked on my 1mz-fe Camry
Edit: TKT-026 is what I used for the 3mz-fe sienna
The tensioner is 13540-20021, I believe that kit doesn't have a tensioner. This is for the 1mz-fe v6, dunno for the 3mz-fe v6
Edit: aisin 3mz-fe kit, TKT-026 has a tensioner
The engine is so clean that you can eat on it. Every thing is so accessible with engine out
"New" low mileage JDM engine. Yes, there is a Santa Claus.
Good job, man.....I love it ❤
Thank you for watching and for commenting.
Good job bro
Thanks for watching.
Excellent explanation, have to change belt on 2000 Toyota Harrier (Lexus RX300). Thank you very much
Thank you for watching and for commenting.
So on OEM belts, the arrows face away from the engine? I saw on your previous video they faced towards the engine. Thank you in advance! Awesome videos
They face to the front so away from the engine for the marks on the belt to line up correctly with the pulleys. If there are no marks on the belt it does not matterm
Just about to change them at the mechanic, I hope the rollers are in good condition, they are OEM
Great video. At the end after "spin the crank two times" why do the belt marks end up of the markers put the pull says on marker? If you hadn't mentioned it I would have been sure I did it wrong.
The painted marks on the belt end up in a different place because the number of teeth on the belt is not an exact multiple of the number of teeth on the crank (n) or the cams (2n). I don't have time to give a full calculation, but if you make 26 revolutions the paint marks should return to their original position.
Nice one
thank you for watching and for commenting.
Awesome video, question I have a 2001 Lexus ES300 with the 1MZ-FE , is it possible to swap it with the 3.3 liter 3MZ-FE ? would like the upgrade and a little more power ... or what would be the best thing for it ?
If you swap the knock sensors, and the lower and upper intake, and the evap solenoids, you can run the 3mz block with the 1mz harness and ecu.
This is very helpful. My boys had everything placed. The engine cranked perfectly. But cannot start. What would be the cause?
Have to inquire if anything else was done when the timing belt was changed, and ask how would that affect spark, fuel, or compression. Check the EFI fuse and the IG2 fuse and any other fuses in the engine compartment. Does the vehicle have an immobilizer? Make sure you are using the transponder key. And of course pull back the top timing cover and check the the timing mark on the camshaft pulley lines up with the cover when cylinder 1 is at TDC. Use the timing notch on the harmonic balancer and the degree indicator on the block to line it up.
Great video. just subscribed. ran into a problem while installing my timing belt on same engine, the right cam sprocket (one close to fire wall) jumped/moved counter-clock and is off by a few teeth from the line on the belt. is it safe to turn the sprocket and if so, in which direction should it be turned to line-up with the line on the belt? Thank you in advance!
If you have the 3.0 you can turn it any way you want, it is a non interference engine. The 3.3 is an interference engine. To be safe you must turn the crankshaft 60 degrees counterclockwise from dtc. Then you can turn the cams freely.
@@Merryfrankster_ Thank you for the reply. Yes, I have the 3.0L engine.
One question that has nothing to do with this video but I respect your opinion. What are your thoughts on a 1zz sump on a 2zz engine.
It is not going to hurt anything, but don't expect any miracles in hard cornering (1g and harder).
Great work no non sense and to the point. Thank you! I am replacing engine in 1999 Solara SLE with one from auto salvage yard with only 74,000 miles on it was in a front end collision. 2 questions... Should I replace timing belt now or wait and see how engine performs for another 20,000 miles? Also Engine is very clean and no metal in oil pan at all. No major signs of sludge yet I drilled out rivets on baffles in both valve covers to completely clean out carbon that was accumulating inside. Drain ports were not plugged but very surprised at amount of crud inside the baffles. Am aware can get updated RH rear valve cover but do not want to spend $200 to $300 for it. Can I modify baffles by drilling additional holes for improved flow or should I just tap and screw baffles back in place with Lock tite and just rely on frequent oil changes to avoid potential of build up in valve cover baffles. I have a 2000 Sienna with 1MZ-FE that I purchased new and did frequent oil changes and maintained quite well and has 467,000 mainly highway miles on it so looking to get extended miles out of this replacement engine for this Solara project.
Sounds like you are comfortable with tinkering and have the time for it. If so you can do and spend the least up front and deal with issues as they arise later. This is not my philosophy. I take care of everything up front, so I don't have to go back in again. On replacement engines I do timing belt and components plus waterpump, front and rear seals, knock sensors and harness, bypass hose in the valley, and ignition coils on the rear bank.
@@Merryfrankster_ Sounds like great advice. Thanks, will take care of those things before putting engine back in. Is there a sight where you can get a benefit for me purchasing parts from by chance? Any thoughts on drilling out larger holes in rear valve cover baffle outlets? Thanks again
Ordered Gen 3 valve cover off Ebay under $100 so will install that with timing belt water pump and seals and other parts as you stated. Thanks
@@DanaJohnson-nz3ee good find on the valve cover.
I can’t get the mark on the crack shaft to align with the on with the belt without turning the crank too much. How do I align it better?
Make sure you are orienting the belt the correct way. It should align perfect every time. If it is flipped over, the marks will not align.
Merryfrankster: is the 3.3L 3mz-fe an interference or non- interference engine? I viewed your video from 2 years ago where you showed the 3L1MZ-FE is a non-interference engine and you indicated you'd do a similar video on the 3.3L mz-fe, but I couldn't find it on your channel. Thanks!
If we go by the factory service manual and their recommended procedure for changing the timing belt, which requires turning the crankshaft away from tdc while turning the camshafts, to avoid any valve to piston contact, then we must conclude that the 3mz is an interference engine. In practice, I believe that the manual authors were on crack or the specification of the cams or pistons was changed after the book was written and no revision was made. I take no responsibility for any weirdness with the 3mz.
@@Merryfrankster_ Well now I'm more confused. What does the factory service manual say about the 3.0L 2MZ-FE...interference or non-interference? Your video concluded the 2mz was non-interference. I'm looking for you opinion about the 3.3L 3MZ-FE, which is the engine in my '06 highlander. You don't need to qualify your opinion for legal reasons. Thx.
@@dbmn7571 I have never made a vieo about a 2MZ-FE. The 1MZ-FE is a non-interference engine, as demonstrated in the video that you refer to (I think).
@@dbmn7571 The answer is I don't know. The factory service manual implies the 3mz-fe is an interference engine, but in practice I have never seen a 3mz-fe with bent valves. I have picked them up off the side of the road with broken timing belt and put a new timing belt on them and they ran just fine. But the factory service manual directs that you must avoid valve to piston contact when turning the camshafts. So I am just as confused as you are.
@@Merryfrankster_ yes it was a 3.0l 1MZ. So, in your opinion is the 3.3 MZ interference or not. thx.
Is it recommended (or not recommended) to use the blue thread lock on the bolt when installing the harmonic balancer?
I don't think that the service manual specifies it. If you are able to tighten the bolt to the correct spec, it is probably not needed.
@@Merryfrankster_ thank you for the reply
good
Thank you for watching and for commenting.
Can p1300 be caused by misfire from bad spark plug on 1mz? Also, can you add your general location in "about me" in case people want to seek you out?
Usually P1300 has to do with the ignition coil, not the spark plug. As you can see from the license plates on all the cars I work on in the videos, I am right smack in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
Question, the rear (right, by the firewall) cam sprocket does not "naturally" line up with the timing mark, but the front(left) sprocket does.
In other words, while turning the cam sprockets clockwise, the front sprocket will "snap" in to place, but the rear sprocket snaps about 45 degrees shy of the timing mark.
Is this normal? any help is appreciated. Thanks for the video.
Yes it's normal for the cams to snap around. This is due to the action of the valve springs. Follow the procedure of the factory service manual to set the cam timing.
What am I saying. Follow the procedure in this video and you will be golden.
Be very careful if your engine is a 3mz this is an interference engine. Do not allow cam movement unless the crank is turned away from dtc.
@@Merryfrankster_ I got he belt on. Everything worked out very well. Thankyou very much for your help!
@@Doomzdayxx thank you for watching and for commenting.
Is it possible to inspect the current timing belt to see if it's been replaced before and what condition it's in?
Yes sure you can undo some of the bolts holding the timing cover and you can pry the cover back a bit to gain a good view of the timing belt. This can be done without removing any of the accessory belts.
You will be able to gauge the condition of the belt roughly, but unless there are obvious marks on the belt it will be difficult to know if it is original or replacement belt. You can rotate the crankshaft by hand until any marks become visible.
@@Merryfrankster_ Thanks, I'll check it out!
Like the video man , this was helpful! , I have a 03 Lexus rx300 same engine leaking coolant , suspect water pump leaking near the belt , I’m having a misfire only on bank2 , the whole bank 2,4,6 checking scan tool and showing vv2 solenoid isn’t being commanded on by the ecu ??? do you think it’s more likely the timing belt became worn and skipped a tooth or so on that bank, or more likely the computer isn’t controlling vvt bad wiring or ecu ? is it possible being out of time is causing vvt to not work on that bank intake cam , as result of being off time on exhaust bank bank2?? How can I check my timing belt to see if the belt marks line up with timing marks how many times do I need to turn crank in order to get everything to line back up as if I reinstalled new one so I can diagnose this problem
most likely issue with the vvt solenoid, or the camshaft position sensor, or the wiring. What is the specific dtc. Timing belt issue not likely. But if you want to check, take off the belts, then the timing covers, and the marks on the belt don't matter - look for the marks on the sprockets/pulleys - like in this video. Marks on the camshaft pulleys align with the back of the timing cover. Mark on the crankshaft sprocket aligns with the oil pump. See it on the video.
@@Merryfrankster_ so, i replaced the vvt solenoid , still showing that its not on? only on bank 2 , intake cam thats supposed to advance or retard the timing, causing the 3 cylinders to misfire ??p0300 p0302 p0304 p0306 ,, i need to verify what controlsthe vvt bank 2 solenoid other than wire and ecu?? could ecu shut the vvt off?? ik what o elimiate everything reserch says replace vvt wsolenoid it was ever bad in first place, but when rev car high isfires almost clear completely its only at idle???? idk wat to chec next need help
@@bestblackoutvideos WHAT IS THE CODE IN THE COMPUTER.
IF THE OCV IS NOT WORKING IT WILL SHOW A CODE
TEST THE OCV LIKE A LIGHT BULB - GIVE IT 12v ACROSS ITs TERMINALS, IT SHOULD CLICK.

Не плохо.
One thing you did not mention or actually do before turning the belt.
Pulling the pin in the belt tensioner.
That was deliberate. No need to pull the pin while turning to check. After you turn and verify everything is ok, then you pull the pin. Or pull it right away and struggle with it if you have to reposition the belt for whatever reason, I don't care.
So easy when not in the car!
Easier for everyone to see clearly, that's for sure.
I have a Rx330 2007 but has a cam noise, any solution?
The RX330 has the 3.3 liter 3mz-fe engine. On this engine, the cam gear lock mechanism can fail. In this situation you replace the cam gear.
Have a look at my video for the 1mz-fe camshafts, they are the same as your engine.
@@Merryfrankster_ Is making camshaft noise, so I should replace the cam gear?
@@Merryfrankster_ is there any way I can send you a video of it so you can hear the noise
@@footballfanz6 Sorry I am not able to diagnose noses remotely. Hard enough to do it onsite. I am an old man with bad hearing.
Setting of camshaft
See separate video.
What if my timing belt doesn’t have marks?????
I do have another video where I count the number of teeth between the location of the marks. If you're really hardcore, you can do it right without marks. Or, go buy another belt, with marks.
Yea I’m new to this first time I’ve ever done one
I went with a ultra power timing belt instead of Asin will I be ok?
@@steveenczi8967 I am not familiar with that brand.
How far
How high.
Non interference engine, these days this engine has supercharger kit (china ver) thats is plug n play..but please rebuilt the engine before apply any supercharger or turbo..its last more 500k miles.
3mz 3.3 INTERFERENCE! Watch my video.
