Hi everyone…plse help me am looking for a carburator 2e manual,am based in zambia…kindly send me where I can access the item…will appreciate
hi im here in dubai so many carburator here new but made in china and used from japan
does anyone know if the AC/Heater parts for this engine are the same as the newer model 4E engine?
Has anyone encountered water seeping into the fuel mixture? Fouling the engine performance. There is water by-pass hose to the carburetor, with the water/coolant entering through the intake manifold. Can this be eliminated?
I think it’s to warm the carb body in cold temps. One day, I’m going to disconnect it.
Do wet problem of Spark Plug connected with carburetor? how could wet of spark plug with fuel could be fixed?
or headgasket. Look inside through sparkplug hole which cylinders have water

The 2e 1.3cc engine is the original Toyota Corolla 1.3 SE sporty saloon ee80 specifically for the Indonesian market since the year of production and sales in 1985-1987 limited edition by PT. Toyota Astra Motor Sunter North Jakarta, well, the difference between the improvements from 1985-1987 is that the size of the engine room is different. 1985-1986 was large and less compact, while the final 1987 improvement had a compact engine room.
The Toyota 2E engine, produced between 1985 and 1998, showcases a robust design with its aluminum cylinder head and cast-iron block. It’s fascinating how the engine variants, like the turbocharged 2E-TE version used in the Starlet 1300 Turbo S, can deliver impressive horsepower. Just like finding the perfect lace bodysuits, choosing the right engine variant can make all the difference in performance.
This was a thoughtful post. The details in “Toyota 2E” gave me a few ideas to try. https://littlebeartools.com

Good write-up. “Toyota 2E” explains the topic in a way that feels easy to digest. passport photo maker相关介绍
Fascinating look at the Toyota 2E. I appreciate how the piece places the engine in its era and highlights its design choices. It would be great to add concrete specs like displacement output torque and fuel economy, plus how it compares with competing engines of the time. Tips on maintenance common failure modes and availability of parts would help readers who are restoring or keeping these engines on the road. Overall an insightful read for gearheads.
I had no idea the 2E ran from 1985 to 1998, which explains why finding specific cast-iron block parts can be such a hassle today. While hunting for those rare components, I actually used bulin 47ai to turn a photo of my old Corolla into a freestyle video just for fun.
Specs section came back empty, which is a shame since the 2E is one of the weirder Toyota engines to dig into. Anyone actually know the bore/stroke and stock output figures offhand?
The 2E was a pretty simple little workhorse, but it’s interesting how long those Toyota engines kept running with basic maintenance. Curious to see the exact specs like compression ratio and power figures.
The 2E’s 9.5:1 compression ratio and 73 mm bore/77.4 mm stroke give it a compact yet robust character, which explains why the 2E‑TE turbo variant can push 110 hp from the same displacement. The use of a single overhead cam with three valves per cylinder is a clever compromise between performance and manufacturing simplicity, especially for the early 1990s Toyota Starlet lineup.
PDF Dark — Invert PDF gives you three ways to handle images: leave them untouched, auto-detect, or invert them along with the page.
The 2E’s 9.5:1 compression ratio and 73 mm bore/77.4 mm stroke give it a modest 65–83 hp range, which explains why it was popular in compact models like the Starlet. Its single‑SOHC, 12‑valve layout keeps the engine light and reliable, but the lack of a dual‑cam design limits high‑RPM power compared to later Toyota engines.
