Talk:Toyota A engine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"This engine sopposedly produces 158 hp (118 kW) at 7400 rpm with 162 N·m at 5200 rpm of torque. Although an independant test have since shown what people have suspected in that the real world figures are lower."

Uh, anyone care to fix this crap? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.34.139.235 (talk) 06:28, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

fix how? make it sound more professional? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sam Qu (talk • contribs) 07:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Reverted that single line to remove editorializing and outrageous misspellings. --FopeDush (talk) 23:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

are you sure the valvecover is aluminum???

definately --Sam Qu (talk) 01:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Under 4A-FE, i qoute: "The second generation had a higher profile cams design in the head, the cam cover having ribs throughout its length and the injectors in the intake manifold runners. The second generation engine was produced from 1992 until 1998.[1]" I dont think this is intirely correct, the 4AFE came with both injectors in the manifold and some engines in the top. I know Carina E(JApan version VIN number: JT.. etc) has injectors in the top. Supposedly some Carina E (UK model VIN number:SB.. etc) have both versions —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.240.210.124 (talk) 11:41, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

yeah I agree with this I have seen both versions so lets do an edit --Sam Qu (talk) 01:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 4A-GZE block

What's this nonsense in the article about the 4A-GZE utilizing the same block and head as the 4A-GE? Quite the contrary, it uses the seven-rib strengthened block later reused for the 4A-GE 20V. Can someone find some verification for this? --Carcenomy (talk) 02:58, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

- there were two version of the 4agze, and each one had the same internals bar the pistons as the same year of 4age. All smallport 4age and 20v engines have the 7 rib block. --Sam Qu (talk) 01:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

"It was extremely light and strong for a production engine using an all-iron block, and produced 112rwhp (84rwkW) at 6600 rpm and 97 ft·lbf (131N·m) of torque at 4800 rpm in the American market. The use of an air flow meter (MAF) sensor, which restricted air flow slightly but produced cleaner emissions that conformed to the U.S. regulations, limited the power to 112 hp whereas the Japanese model — which used a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor — produced about 128rwhp (96rwkw)."

Those power figures are (sort of) incorrect - The numbers are right, the 'rwKW' (rear wheel Kilowatts) isn't. The power figures quoted are for power at the flywheel. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.194.27.78 (talk) 03:27, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
