Installation & Maintenance Notes

• Pre-Install Refresh: To ensure the longevity of your new motor, we recommend performing a "pre-install refresh" including a new genuine Toyota water pump, serpentine belt, spark plugs, and fresh synthetic 0W-20 engine oil.

• Fluid Standards: Use high-quality 0W-20 full-synthetic oil to maintain the integrity of the Dual VVT-i system and the rotating assembly, as specified by Toyota factory maintenance schedules.

• Professional Tip: When swapping, carefully inspect all vacuum lines and electrical connectors for dry rot. Transferring your USDM-spec intake and exhaust manifolds is often recommended to maintain exact compatibility with your vehicle’s factory emissions system and ECU mapping.

• Cooling: Always ensure your vehicle’s cooling system is thoroughly flushed and clear of debris. A clean radiator and thermostat are essential to preventing overheating and ensuring the longevity of the 1AR-FE aluminum block.
