TOYOTA 22RE TIMING CHAIN REPLACEMENT | REMOVAL BREAK-DOWN 

Hey buddy I just wanted to say thank you I have had my 91 Toyota pickup for 20 plus years and when it had 85000 mi on it the timing chain went which I needed to do a complete overhaul on the head,valves, chain, wp, etc. 50,000 miles later it went again, and I parked it and haven't touched it up until last month as it's been sitting in the backfield. One day my 2 sons and I walked past it and the memories started flowing,so I threw a batter and cranked it over with some starting fluid and just like that she started up after sitting for over 15 years, but reminded me why I parked it due to the clicking and clattering. After I heard it run I got a bug in me and decided to start pulling it apart which I found the driver's side tensioner bracket up top broke. Yesterday I decided to order a timing chain kit with new tensioners and I'm getting ready to put her back together this weekend. But the main reason about this message is thanking you for a refreshing my memory of what all I removed, and gave me a little remembrance now of how to be putting it back together. Thank you from your new subscriber.

Wheezing and shortness of breath??? Get yourself checked!! Don't die on us Brother!

once again, thank you!

Another good video man! Preparing to do my '90 4Runner 22RE manual right now. Printed out the article you mentioned and will read it. Good tip on removing EFI Fuse. Also great tip on that bolt holding the top of the Timing chain cover that is hidden. Got the timing chain kit, oil pump, and water pump on order from Rockauto coming. I forgot the oil pan gasket so will get that locally. Appreciate the learnings as I'm still pretty new at mechanicing but have learned alot over the past 3 years or so. Pretty fun and learning alot about the 22RE. Love it

If your truck is a 5 speed you can put it in 4th or 5th gear block up the tires or set the parking brake and bust it counter clockwise with a breaker bar I made a video on how to do it, you might be able to get away with it on a automatic by putting it in drive. This video is very informative only thing id suggest is pulling the coil wire if you do the bump start method.

Im getting ready to do this on my 91 pickup. 2wd No powersteering and no ac on it. My question being to remove the camgear bolt i just loosen it up and then recheck that everything is on tdc? Also i was reading on the website you recommended, the part where it says the driverside of the chain has more tension than the passenger side. How do i achieve this?

Damn. It's gonna take a lot more than I thought it would. The beast is worth the work though. Thanks for the information man!

Good info but my man needs to see a doctor

You gettin it Nu! Thanks brother

hello from palmer alaska :)

Awesome guide bro............but as I mention earlier just like others.............your coughing sounds serious brother...get checked !!

Brake cleaner cleans the hell out of a Toyota steering wheel.

Glad I found your channel as just purchased 94 2WD truck. I like it and not too difficult to work on. Your tutorials will be a great help. Where do your order your parts from?

I just finished this job. About 7 hours for me to get it running. Not terrible

Nice video. Any one have any links to a detailed video.

Hey man I've got a 1992 Pickup 2wd (255,000 mi.), I just adjusted my valves and the same thing happened to me! First start it idled high and sounded like a runaway diesel and when I adjusted the idle air control down it still sounds like a damn diesel! I really don't want to do this to my truck, how risky is it to drive with the chain like this?

Ok man your coughing and breathing is getting concerning. I have been mentioning it a bunch before. Please can you go to the doctors and check it out. We need more videos just got so a check up

i have the same vacuum plug kit lol

When will Alaska be opening business' back up?

Did you get checked out? I hope you and the family is good in health. Great video, again I hope you’re feeling better and healthier. Be safe brother. (85 celica GTs)

Just watching this, did you have covid? Hope not, great video.
