88 toyota pickup 22re - pointers
just got one of the above pickups. it has a very slow lumpy idle when
warm. i haven't had a chance to get a manual or do any diagnostics, so if anyone can share any quickie pointers to keep me going while that stuff arrives in the mail, they'll be much appreciated. -- nomina rutrum rutrum |

Plugs, spark plug wires, dist cap / rotor, replace all filters, etc. (or whatever applies to that specific vehicle.) Sometimes people will install non factory spec plugs, wires, etc. and that will cause problems. |

Is it carb'd or EFI? '88 should be EFI, and the first thing I'd try is pulling the EFI fuse and resetting the ECU to default values... |

Under the hood, in the fuse box located (should be) right behind the battery, and should be labeled "EFI" |

Couple of other things. On this engine, there are 'plastic' chain guides, and they wear down, and are hydraulically controlled. On starting, you may hear a rasping noise from the front of the motor that should go away within a few seconds. Any more than that and you have to tear the front of the motor off, replace the guides and the hydraulic adjusters. Might as well do the chain at the same time, since it stretches. How many miles? If the rasping noise lasts longer than a few seconds, the chain is wearing through the block... |

One good thing about these...they used this engine for a long time, up to 1996 or 97. I had an '85 Celica with a 22re that would not pass inspection because oil was blowing past the rings and into the intake. I bought one out of a wrecked truck (1991) for $300 with 107,000 on it and popped it in. |
