Just found this video now though I've been subbed to you for several years. Going to see the rest of this build and I'm keen to see how the car runs! Good work here :)
Hey your the cool dude that made a video on how to fix the 1zzfe oil problem. You showed people that had to drill holes in the piston like sump. I didn't know you do videos on 2zzge awesome you just got your self a subscriber.
Great video. I wish I could find someone who would remove my 2ZZ from my Celica as I have a leak from the timing cover and no one seems to want to touch it. However, with all the work you did, I am surprised you never checked and cleaned the VVTL-I solenoid and replaced both the VVt and VVTL-i small filters. The VVTL-i filter/solenoid sometimes block up and prevent lift engaging. Always buy the new designed lift bolts post 2002/3 as the early ones had a habit of snapping like yours.
NICE work! Especially liked your prep, cleanliness, and painting. Working through same issues on my 2ZZ and also had broken rocker-shaft bolt. I pounded shaft from wrong end and damaged end seal (at cam drive side) resulting in needing to order new rocker shaft....Grrr. Lucky for me, I live close to Monkey Wrench Racing and they helped me fix my errors. Have you addressed valve lash? I have completed full tear-down to block, now in assembly phase, and valve lash is odd in service manual. Think I'm going back to Monkey Wrench as I am running out of time for Spring-2019 install in my MR2/S. P
So let's say I go to replace lift bolts and one is broken like this....can I just replace the unbroken one and screw the broken bolt back in and pretend I never saw it? Lol. Car currently hits lift....was gonna change the filters and lift bolts just as a maintenance thing (200K) matrix xrs
I felt bad when he discovered it was broken but @9:36 I couldn't help my self but crack, very informative I'll be inspecting my too for that price of shit 😂
Very nice job guys! Your 2ZZ looks kinda beat with that dented intake manifold and broken belt tensioner thing in the back. I feel lucky that my 2ZZ motor set came in spotless! I did pay $200 more for my motor than most importers were asking but the importer was super reputable with TONS of 2ZZ’s not just 4-5 of them, so I felt their experience with selecting engines was good. I was right, my mechanic did the swap 2 years ago and nothing but joy from my 03 XRS ever since! Great luck with the motor!!,
Toyota fucked up when making this timing cover. Why would they incorporate a water pump coolant passage through the timing cover. That's just asking for it when this engine isn't serviced correctly.
I've heard you can change timing cover gasket but have to release side and another engine mount to either jack up or drop down the engine enough to get a ratchet in. Yes you can remove a broken lift bolt with it in also.
Very well done, I laughed when the bolt came out snapped. Lol, crisis mode indeed! Hope to see that 2zz in the MRS soon.
Internally screaming at that point lol. Huge fan of your channel!

I love the use of the gran turismo 4 menu music
The nostalgia!
That paint job is killer! I'm tearing through these videos to get inspiration/tips for my MR2 Spyder

SMH how do you align the hole of the shaft , God damn it????
Can't wait for the end result! F for the bolt lmao!

Another informative episode! No doubt I’ll be drilling out lift bolts soon
Good luck!
Dude good luck and thank you for this vid! Keep em coming
Love the color of the valve cover.
Thanks!
Why not use a left handed bit till it catches?i have use it in broken bmw frame bolts it should work
same thing just happened to me.one good, one bad.... that's why i am here :(
I imagine you can do this with the engine still in the car or am i wrong?

May I know what is the part number for the lift bolts?Thank you.

good vid, thanks for the info!
What we're those black leads screwed on the top of the coil packs?
Great work! Be sure to video that transmission work. Subscribed
Hey! Already uploaded the transmission preparation. Go check it out!

Crazy question, can this be done while engine is in car or is it too tight?
I've heard you can change timing cover gasket but have to release side and another engine mount to either jack up or drop down the engine enough to get a ratchet in. Yes you can remove a broken lift bolt with it in also.
Does anyone make upgraded lift bolts
After complaints toyota corrected the type of material lift bolts in the younger 2zzge engines
Renee Harewood i think they corrected it after 2002 is that right?
@@jimmyribeiro7785 around that year
Renee Harewood thanks yeah i read that too. Im looking forward to buying a corolla with a compressor. Output 272hp😍 Year 2004
Working on car engine bare feet - H&S first!
That part you didn’t know is you engine mount bracket, but you know that now
