Got lucky on the head bolts.. i got to the last son bich and stripped out the threads at like 50° on my last turn.. so had to take the head back otff buy new head bolts, new gaskst, and the timecert kit to drill out every damn head bolt hole., some bull..
Excellent video. I love the power steering pump trick. I usually use a 3/8 extension to push them back but that's a lot easier especially when the engine is in the car and almost no room
You did a great job and even went back when you realized you may have missed things! That where many fail, (including me). I am in the process of replacing the timing chain cover after a blown head gasket and stipped head bolt threads. With the RTV on the Timing Chain cover I noticed some apply RTB to the edges of both side corners where the head meets the block. One person applied RTV before putting the head on. Just on the corners. Did you have any leaks?
What a great video. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain the steps in such a clear way and show the work. Must one of the best videos on the platform. I'm now subscribed!
I heard you can't hone out Toyota 2azfe blocks? If you need to do that you should replace the engine. Is it just not economical in general or some other reason? I thought they don't have steel cylinder sleeves - just alloy aluminum? Are the new pistons a Toyota product for this engine or aftermarket?
Yes, the head was machines at the machine shop. The amount of metal that actually gets removed is very little. This will not affect the operation of the vvt system. But just like on any head there is a tolerance limit to how much you can machine 👍
Hey Bob, you're right! These Toyota engines had issues with weak threads. The block was taken to the machine shop and they made sure the threads were in good shape. When installing the head bolts I had no issues with the bolts clamping down and torquing properly.
Is this the 2AZ-FE 2.4 Litre ? I thought you couldn't Hone these because they were a 1 time use block? Could someone clarify this please? I have a 1AZ-FE 2.0 Litre from a 2006-2008 Toyota RAV4.. planning for a rebuild.. But I can't get a clear understanding if you could use a Hone to put in a new Crosshatch?? OR... that it is a "1 time use".. Some have " Cast Iron Cylinder Liners", other have the "Spiny Type Cylinder Liners.. (Whatever the last means? " Spiny Type.. " Hope someone can elaborate on this.. Cheers!
Hello sir, thank you for the video. Question for you,: After you drain oil at 50mi, do you fill back up with more Break-in oil or is this when you switch to factory spec oil? Thank you again!
Hey Josh, good question. The machine shop did all the measuring and ordering of the bearings, pistons and rings. Since they are more experienced in that area than I am I deferred to their expertise. I just installed them 🙂
thanks for the series of videos. so, what do you do with the old pistons? if the machine shop gave you new ones? Can those piston be reused in any other engine or they are scrap metal?
They said the rings were seized in the grooves. I imagine they got scrapped. Unfortunately that's what happens a lot in the automotive world. A lot of waste is produced in old parts.
If you live in the States I would recommend rockauto.com. They have a great selection of parts and kits for this job 👍. As far as brands FelPro, Melling and Mahle are good. I don't have a lot of experience with EngineTech but other people say good things about them.
Can balance shaft be repaired without pulling the engine? I've got a 2005 2.4 with lots of engine noise, no oil leak no water in oil, but a vibration and hard knocking. Not sure yet what it is as in trying to determine what to do next. Ty
Have you verified spark, fuel injector, and compression leak down consistency? I.e. do you have a week cylinder? That can shake a 4 cyl right out of motor moumts.
It's definitely either a broken piston or ?? Not sure yet. Definitely a hard break. But I've ruled out ignition, fuel, motor mounts, transmission, and oil pump. But I'm not sure if the engine would still run if a half shaft had problems.. I know it'll run with a vibration and miss with a broken piston. Hard knock is key here.. I could always pull coil packs and check if pistons are moving.. but I thought maybe someone would have an idea
If you want to look at the bottom end you can pull the oil pan off. I think the exhaust needs to be lowered in the front. You can get to the balance shaft and I think 3 connecting rods. Number 4 rod is under the case half and not accessible. If it's a rod knock you may have to pull the engine to repair it.

@@ahmadghosheh3104 Mine burns oil about 1 quart 1000 highway miles (60-75 mph). It does not burn at city miles (under 50 mph). It burns about 1 quart in 1800-2000 mixed miles. I change the oil at 3.5k miles (high mileage oil +20% lucas oil treatment)
@@passion830217 I would just continue to drive it and maintain it like you are. 1 qrt per 1k miles would have been considered acceptable by Toyota even when it was new. I believe you are still in pretty good shape. Just be sure you are checking and adding oil accordingly.
In my 2005 Camry LE, same engine, 250K miles, head gasket failed and oil and coolant mixed. So I would only do this repair because of the leak. If your car is not showing any sign of damage, don't bother.

About how much $$$ In parts and machine work
If you do most of the work yourself the parts plus machine shop will be around $1k.
very detail. good job!

I'm working on a 2AZ engine and 2 spacers fell out of it. Can you advise me where they are to go...have you ever had this problem before
Did the head get machined or just cleaned? I heard machining VVT heads can mess up VVT timing.
Yes, the head was machines at the machine shop. The amount of metal that actually gets removed is very little. This will not affect the operation of the vvt system. But just like on any head there is a tolerance limit to how much you can machine 👍
Great video. Thanks. Do you have the torque spec for the bolts on the oil pump for the Camry 2AZ-FE engine. I would appreciate that. Thanks again!
Fyi you should assemble crack shaft first and assemble pistons on engine stand using cope straws
Did you do the cylinder head-bolt inserts job? I thought those threads were a weak point in 2azfe engine?

Hello sir, thank you for the video. Question for you,: After you drain oil at 50mi, do you fill back up with more Break-in oil or is this when you switch to factory spec oil? Thank you again!
When replacing the rod and crank bearings, do you not need to use a plastigauge to ensure the tolerances are right?
Hey Josh, good question. The machine shop did all the measuring and ordering of the bearings, pistons and rings. Since they are more experienced in that area than I am I deferred to their expertise. I just installed them 🙂
Was there a TSB for loosing oil, and what was the fix?
Long time ago but expired.

mounts. You state approximate cost?
What hoist, rigging is required?
What would be a far price for Gasket Set ? Which website/ store would you recommend me for buy it?

Hello ,what about the piston its any special size or are standard
Standard. Unless you have the cylinder bored out larger. I have a parts list in the description.

Mine is at 169k miles. I am thinking at what mileage the poor car needed a new engine.
This had around 280k! It was burning oil. Other than that the inside looked really good.
When the engine burns as much oil as gas lol. Serious though, if it runs and doesn't burn much or any oil then don't touch it.
