INSIDE A 230,000 MILE Toyota Land Cruiser Engine | 1FZ-FE Rebuild - CRACKED BLOCK!
235Continuing where we left off and taking apart the bottom end of this iconic (and huge) Toyota 1FZ 4.5L inline-6 out of my 1993 80 Series Land Cruiser (FZJ80) with high mileage. Removing the pistons, rods, crankshaft, checking main and rod bearing clearances using plastigage (dial bore gauge recommended) and finding a little crack in the block by the freeze plug! This motor is surprisingly clean and well within factory Toyota spec when it comes to oil clearance. The cylinders look brand new besides a little carbon build up. This engine looks like it has MUCH less than 230,000 miles (370,000 km) on it, and I suspect it will last forever once rebuilt. I have to say this engine is very similar to the 2JZ besides the cylinder head, very interesting!
Also...I sold my built Toyota Pickup crawler. You will be missed! Focus is shifting towards the landcruiser build.
