Toyota Camry Engine REBUILD ASMR (1MZ-FE V6)

In this video a friend an I rebuild an entire engine (1MZ-FE) with no mechanical background or knowledge. We did this to learn the basics of refreshing an engine so we can apply our knowledge to future builds.
What you see here was filmed over a year!
Hope you all enjoy! :)

The 1MZ-FE is one of the automotive industry's great engines. It runs like a gem, so sweet sounding. The MR2 will be a well driving car with this swap, everything it should have been from the beginning in fact.

i always find engine rebuilds so pleasing. i once watched one that was almost an hour long with a guy just placing and torqueing down new parts to a engine block and it was just so great to watch

My dad had a workshop for about 15 years and i spent some time there in my childhood and teen years. I also helped him out a couple times while working on customer and private cars. I got a midschool degree on metal and automotive technology. Now, i just followed my passion and i am working in an IT dept in a big company. I WOULD NEVER HAVE THE BALLS TO RIP AN ENGINE APART MYSELF! :D :D :D PROBS FROM GERMANY

Thats awesome, I have the same engine but with double throttle bodies on my es300 & I just recently replaced the valve cover gaskets & whole ass electrical harness. It doesn't want to start but it was in a fire so its still in the works.

Wow. This inspires me to rebuild and trick out my 2005 Toyota Camry v6. She has 306k miles. ❤

Thank you so much for showing the rebuild.

You performed the "lift it out if the body" as I am contemplating for my 1999 3.0L Solara. I suppose that the only way to take it out from a MR2.

I love the clutch/manual transmission!

Cheers!

Rebuild without new pistons, rings or bearings? Were they still good?

[muzguz]

That's exactly how i learn back in the day with my mates. Rebuilt Ford Cleavland & Windsors, 1HD's, manual gearboxes and even a rotary Toyota diesel fuel pump. Never paid mechanics to work on any of my vehicles and certainly helps if you break down too. Well done boys.

Pretty soon this'll have to be me with my Camry. It's great to watch you guys just actually *do it*. Very entertaining!

[omally]

Bro! Them cam gears and seals were real... fun! -__- LOL

3:57 marcus in the back killed me hahaha

[Poignancy]

very well done on this video, engine looks nearly as clean as Chloe's mechanic gloves :D

[Curtis.Carpenter]

Camera work is getting better 👌 you sure inspire me to do my mechanical work on my own, and learn how like you guys did on your own.

[TheMrBennito]

phew, it takes guts & experience to take such an engine apart & reassemble....guts, yes, experience zero, yet you guys are an inspiration, so who knows, one day...:)

[Curtis.Carpenter]

So happy to see the once 'benki' start up.. good job guys! You have certainly inspired me, Rex and the gang

[whitez]

Hey its nothing like doing it yourself hands on best way to learn even if the engine don't do well you had that experience

[jacksonkulu]

Bro, If I want to do top overhaul, do you think it is possible to just let the engine sit still there without dismembering it from the car body? Or should I take the engine out first..thanks

[JohnElHanafi]

you did a great Job with the video no doubt; there was a sequence to follow when you tear down an engine (an example would be that you should have removed the harmonic balancer, then the bottom timing cover until you can see the entire timing section; made sure to find top dead center with the crankshaft and the camshaft before you remove the tensioner and timing belt (I get that you had to rebuild but still); I would have loved to see a bit more lengthy footage of different parts (As I am sure it took longer to clean and put back together); Subscribed and will watch more of your videos; great job guys, you remind me of some of my childhood friends (Never lose that!)

My 2002 camry has this engine, SO RELIABLE

[blairguinea]
