I have a 1994 Hilux LN106 3L with 160,000 km. When I changed the oil two months ago, after ~6,000 km and one month on new oil and filter, I borrowed a funnel from a friend to pour used oil from one container to another, and when he put the funnel into a bag he always uses after oil changes, the...

Toyota 2L-T, 3L Engine Repair Manual Supplement - Publication Number RM169E (pdf) diesel

Hello guys! Virgin here in this forum haha. Been following and reading for quite awhile now. Finally got my first LJ79, its a 1994 model. Comes with a 2.8L Diesel engine but the previous owner stuffed a turbo on it. Now there's some kinda engine oil leak coming out from the back left...

Hey all! Unfortunately, it’s looking like the LJ70 I purchased isn’t in the condition that I believed it to be in. There are some significant oil leaks, major lack of power on hills, and I believe the turbo is on its way to the turbo graveyard. It’s a 2LT, so I can’t say that I am shocked...

Hello, :cheers: (If this post belongs elsewhere, mods please move or delete) I have a '92 Hiace Super GL that I purchased damaged. 3L diesel with under 150,000 km threw a rod out the side of the block. The crank will rotate about 120 degrees. I'd hoped for a direct swap, but have yet to find...

Hey y'all, Been lurking for a while I just wanted to post a short intro. I recently purchase a 1990 toyota 4runner 2nd gen with a 3L turbo diesel swap. I've got a 6inch lift with 33 super swampers its a fun rig to drive i love it a lot. I've been doing lots of research over the past few...

Hi, With reference to my old post: Swap Compatibility L, 2L, 3L, 5L? I have now managed to pull things apart and I am looking at the following: 1. I have a Hiace with an L engine incl transmission and everything else. 2. I bought a used 3L engine from a Toyota Dyna where I only have the...

Just as the title says, does anyone know of a way to identify whether a 3L head has been swapped into a 2LTE motor or not? I'm looking at an LJ78 to buy and the seller says its done but has no papers (previous owner had it done). hopefully someone can help. I'm surprised this hasn't been asked...
