Toyota E engine

The Toyota E engine family is a straight-4 piston engine series, utilizing a timing belt rather than a chain. Like many of Toyota's other engine designs, the E engine series features a cast iron block, along with an aluminum cylinder head. The members of the E engine family, range from 1.0 L to 1.5 L. The E family supplanted the "K" engines in most applications. A large number of parts in the E engine series are interchangeable between each other especially all the 4E and 5E engines which all share the same block.

1E

The 1E is a 1.0L (999 cc) carbureted 12 valve SOHC engine. Bore was 70.5 mm and stroke was 64.0 mm. Compression ratio was 9.0:1. It appeared in 1985. Output ranged at about Convert|55|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 6000 rpm. And torque was 75 lbf·ft (102 N·m) @ 3500 rpm .These engines attain excellent fuel economy although performance is tepid.

3E

The 3E is a 1.5 L (1456 cc) SOHC version. Output ranged from Convert|78|hp|kW|0|abbr=on to Convert|87|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 6000 rpm with convert|87|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 4000 rpm to convert|89|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 4800 rpm. It appeared in 1986, and was discontinued after 1994. The 3E engines appeared in both carbureted and fuel-injected applications. The 3E-TE, appearing in 1986, was a turbocharged engine producing Convert|113|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 5600 rpm with convert|127|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 3200 rpm.

Applications:
* Toyota Tercel
* Toyota Corolla II
* Toyota Starlet(EP71)

The '3E' and '3E-E' engines are considered slightly less reliable than other Toyota engines, although they are also among the easiest engines to work on. The most common problems to affect these engines are carbon buildup in the intake valves, premature valve stem seal (nitrile) failure, and collapse of the oil control ring on the piston. Any of these conditions can lead to rough idling, stalling, and fouled spark plugs, and therefore need to be differentially diagnosed. The valve stem seals, at least, can be replaced with silicone or viton which last much longer. [http://board.tercelonline.com/]

4E

The 4E is a 1.3 L (1331 cc) DOHC version. Bore was 74 mm and stroke 77.4 mm. Output ranged from Convert|81|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 6400 rpm to Convert|99|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 6600 rpm with convert|81|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 3600 rpm to convert|6|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 5200 rpm. It appeared in 1989, and was discontinued after 1998. The 4E engines appeared in fuel-injected applications

1st Gen 4E-FE

The first generation of 4E engines found in the Starlet GI and Solail models were produced from 1989 until 1996 the engine found in these two models obtained power figures of convert|99|bhp|abbr=on @ 6600 rpm and convert|86|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on @ 5200 rpm. this engine had more in common with the 4efte sharing the same throttle body, and slightly larger injectors.

*Specs:
* 74 mm Bore
* 77.4 mm Stroke
* 9.6:1 Compression Ratio

4E-FTE

The 1st generation 4E-FE was the basis of the 4E-FTE, appearing in 1989, which was a turbocharged engine producing 135 hp at 6400 rpm with convert|116|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 4800 rpm. The 4E-FTE was the most powerful of the E series engines ever produced. It was produced exclusively for the Toyota Starlet GT Turbo (Japan Only) and its replacement, the Toyota Glanza V (Japan only). However the 4E-FTE was a very popular conversion engine by enthusiasts for many small Toyota cars such as the Corolla and Tercel, which it fitted into with standard Toyota parts. The 4E-FTE differed internally from the 4E-FE only by its stronger connecting rods, lower compression pistons and different head gasket. It also features a harmonic damper instead of a normal crankshaft pulley. The turbocharger fitted to the 4E-FTE was Toyota's own CT9 which featured an internal waste gate and had 2 modes; low (0.4 bar/40 kPa) and high (0.65 bar/65 kPa) boost. The low boost mode was electronically controlled by a solenoid valve and the ecu and the overall or high boost was controlled by the actuator connected to the turbocharger. The 4E-FTE also had a "Top mounted", air cooled, intercooler. The 4E-FTE was mated to the Toyota C150 transmission or the optional C151 transmission which featured an LSD. Although aftermarket parts could substantially increase the power output of the engine, the major limitation is the fuel injection system, which tends to run too lean, even when the fuel cut-off is disabled (as one urban legend suggests).

*Specs:
* 74 mm Bore
* 77.4 mm Stroke
* 8.2:1 Compression Ratio

2nd Gen 4E-FE

The 2nd Generation of the 4E-FE was introduced in 1996 producing less peak power: convert|85|bhp|abbr=on @ 5500 rpm, but with a slight increase in peak torque convert|87|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on at 4400 rpm. The 2nd generation of the 4E-FE was essentially the same engine as the 1st but the inlet and exhaust manifolds were changed along with a slight alteration of the ecu in order to try and reduce emissions.

*Specs:
* 74.3 mm Bore
* 77.4 mm Stroke
* 9.6:1 Compression Ratio

5E

The 5E is a 1.5 L (1497 cc) DOHC version. Output ranged from Convert|94|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 5400 rpm to Convert|110|hp|kW|0|abbr=on at 6400 rpm with convert|91|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 3200 rpm to convert|100|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on of torque at 4000 rpm. It appeared in 1991, and was discontinued after 1998. All 5E engines were fuel-injected.

Applications:
* Toyota Paseo
* Toyota Sera
* Toyota Tercel
* Toyota Raum
