I'm very much aware of this. It should be noted that this topic is about bearing clearance vs oil viscosity. I'm not about to hijack a thread by diverting it into a discussion of CAFE. The recommended viscosity range in Europe indicates a wide range of viscosity is acceptable depending on...

The Toyota 2020 1GR-FE engine sold in Europe has an oil viscosity specification ranging from 5W-30 to 20W-50, which is a difference of 15 points in the first value and 20 points in the second. In the USA, Toyota recommends 0W-20 for my 1GR-FE engine. I think it will run just fine with 5W-30.

Is this an OEM filter? If not, what brand is it? I have a used air filter that I keep in case I need a spare for a short period of time. The downstream side appears to be about as dirty as the upstream side. When I look at your pictures, I'm wondering if the paper texture is a little bit...

The second video shows him probing two main bearings, one that is not spun and one spun. An oil passage to the spun bearing is completely blocked with what appears to be bearing material. The bearing that is not spun has an approximately one-half inch long "sliver" of carbon in the oil groove...

Retired mechanical engineer. In the 70's I worked part time at a Sears Auto Center earning money to pay for a university education. I completed all the Sears training courses and continued learning over the years to service my vehicles.

This is a 2014 3.0 EcoDiesel teardown showing all main bearings spun. See the damage at time stamp 27:00 ... read comments for lively discussion on the cause of failure. Here's a few samples, "The main bearings were failing due to inadequate oil film thickness during low RPM /high load events...

I clicked on "See Original Listing" which is to the right of this title, "Toyota 4.7 Timing Belt Kit". It takes me to a page that states, "This listing has ended." So, does this imply anything? I also searched for "Toyota 4.7 timing belt kit" and found that many sellers sold hundreds of kits.

This mechanic has a longer video explaining how he struggled with other tools, bought the Mayhew 29912 kit with 3 adapters and highly recommends it. Read the comments too.
