22RE 

One of the best Toyota engines ever made. These engines are built to last and run forever even if they were abused. They are well known for their excellent durability and good low end torque. The engine is a SOHC 8-valve 2.4L 4-cylinder inline with a cast iron block and aluminum heads. With 114 HP @ 4,800 rpm and 140 lb-ft. @ 3,600 rpm, it isn't exactly a power house by any means, but it makes up for this because of its excellent durability and simplicity. These engines are considered to be overbuilt and can easily run for well over 300,000 miles with no major issues. These engines are more of a workhorse than a racehorse and is mostly found in the Toyota Pickup (Hilux) and the Toyota 4Runner.

The 22R is a carbureted version of the 22RE which has fuel injection. A variant of the 22RE called the 22R-TE was a turbocharged version of the 22RE, but only had 135 HP @ 4,800 rpm and 173 lb-ft @ 2,800 rpm.

"Wow. I used to have one of those old Toyota trucks! That 22RE engine would run and run and run and keep on truckin'. Not the most powerful, but sure as hell reliable! They sure don't make them like they used to..."
