When did Toyota stop making the turbo engine?
Toyota only offered this turbo engine for two years, from 1986 to 1987, in the Pickups and 4Runners, but even still, not many vehicles from those production years were equipped with it at all. Furthermore, most of these engines were paired up with automatic transmissions.
What kind of engine does a Toyota Pickup have?
Gulp. This classic Toyota Pickup represented the holy grail of all possible model configurations. A 22R-TE four-cylinder SOHC turbo engine, four wheel drive, a manual transmission, all wrapped up in a stripped-down, crank-window and frill-less base model. It was a one owner and apparently had no rust.
What should I look for in a 22RE engine?
I get dozens of calls every day with people trying to diagnose various issues with their 22R / 22RE / 22RTE engines. Everything from hard start issues, rough idle, mis-fire, lack of power….blah, blah, blah. Since there are a few hundred things it CAN be, I recommend starting with the basic stuff first.
What should the idle speed be on a 22RE?
We also recommend going a hair tighter than the factory says too. .007” on the intake and .011” on the exhaust side. If it’s your first time adjusting valves, TAKE YOUR TIME AND TRIPLE CHECK YOUR WORK. It’s not rocket surgery, but if it’s not done correctly, things can get ugly quick. Rough idle? Engine shakes at idle? Low idle?
