2l-te

Hi guys. Really new to forums infact this is my first ever post so please go easy. This is a question that should probably be in a Hilux section given the engine I'm talking about but my truck is an lj71 so I'm putting it under 70 series. What I really want to know is a list of all differences...

My 2L-TE is a bit low on power. It seems to run fine otherwise, just not quite as powerful as it used to be. I tested the injectors, and they all passed the leak test just fine. They also all open at right around 2200 psi. The spray pattern looks good on all four as well, compared to pics I've...

1991 LJ78 2L-TE, Automatic Transmission I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I unknowingly ran my engine low on oil - not sure how long. Could have been low for a couple weeks. I changed the oil about a month ago (filled to proper level at that time) and have done mostly city driving since then...

I have a 1990 auto 4Runner with a blown engine in the US..so I’m wanting to swap out for a 2l-te mostly because it’s my understanding it could swap over to the current automatic transmission bellhousing and it will be reliable. Any info on this route would be very helpful 🙏🙏

I've enjoyed reading through these forums and many of you on here have already been an invaluable resource as I embark on my LJ78 journey - thank you! I recently picked up a '91 LJ78 with the 2L-TE and have been working towards implementing some of the mods many of you have kindly documented and...

Gday fellas I’m wondering if anyone has converted an lj78 from auto to manual and what’s involved? Are parts from an lj70 compatible? Assuming I’ll need custom shafts and trans Mount but is everything else interchangeable? (Box, shifter, clutch pedal etc)

Hi guys Anyone know if an a343f from an ln130 surf or any other land cruiser will fit my lj78 Prado? Water ingress in the transmission has worn the friction rings and looking into options before I rebuild the box.

Hi guys I have an LJ78 with an automatic box. Problem is park engages but all other gears act as neutral? Shifter linkage is operating but no power is getting to the front or rear in reverse or drive. Any ideas on where I should start?

Any rebuild kits out there worth getting? Recently came across this kit on eBay and wonder if anyone has anything to say

Hi team, I brought this 1991 sx swb prado. Been parked up in his shed for 10 years with a new head and the egr system removed with a mechanical fuel pump installed on my 2L-TE. It runs smooth. But there not a lot of power. I'm assuming it has something to do with the Turbo, but I can't be...

Hello, I own a 1993 Hilux Surf SSR-X 2lt-e. I recently replaced the head (big surprise, I know) and now it starts very rough. When I first start it for the day it spews white smoke and idles very roughly for a minute or two. Once it is warmed up it consistently bellows black smoke. I assume...

Hey all it's awesome to be here and finally join. I haven't searched everything yet and having trouble finding what I'm looking for. I have a 92 hilux surf with 2l-te. I live in Canada and am looking for advice on heating set ups. What have other guys done to help combat the cold with this...

Hey y'all, new the those forum here, have had a lot of help over the past couple weeks with my Hilux surf from this forum and I'm loving it. I've reached the point where I've got some questions noone has asked or I've failed to find. So registered a new account n here we go. Got my 1993 surf...

Hi all, having a bit of a rough time and thought I'd reach out with some of my experiences. Truck ran great, no problems starting, no problems overheating. Stopped for groceries and 10 minutes ater she just would not start. Messed around bleeding injectors for some time before towing home...

Hi all. As part of my 2lte upgrades roject I'm researching head replacement options.. I know a 3l head will fit but I'm intrigued with a 1KZTE short valve head.. it's the bigger intake & exhaust valves.. So will this head fit my 2lte block?? Thanks for your replies in advance..

Hi all.. I am starting to design a new 2L-TE inake & exhaust package complete with 3"exhaust & intercooler.. I need an old "useless" head to 3D laser scan & knit into my completed engine bay laser scans. So if you've got a cracked head reach out to me... I can put your "junk" to good use... Cheers

Hi! It’s time for my 200k service. I will read up as this is my second 2L but my first TE. I am really unsure how compatible any of my ‘84 2L parts will be on the ‘90 2Lte, fuel pump appears to be the same. I’m making a parts list, a timing belt water pump kit will be on there, a fuel system...

Well, thanks to a few very knowledgeable members, I've embarked on doing what I can to give myself the best chance of enjoying my LJ78 for years to come without a head issue. First off this is not an informative, how-to thread. Thanks to guys like GTSSportCoupe, Jarrat, Airheadnut and others...
