Oil Squirters Can be Removed With Crank, IN

[92TealSupra]

I read awhile ago that it is note " hard " difficult to remove the oil squirters from the 7m-gte block. Well today I took apart a '89 Engine and if you rotate the crank you can get to, two squirters at a time with easy...

I don't get why people say it's hard they can fall into the piston and then get a little thing to grab them with. No one bought my engien so I tore it all apart, head gasket was perfect, pistons perfect.

I did not know that the '89 came with a 6M CRANK. Maybe the early ones did, but it has the thick block* just different.. crank

I have pic's here.

I guess I give up. Anything I say isn't useful? I saw a post and every person suggested removing the crank to " replace " these. Anyhow Nate.. it's always nice running into you.

Early 89's had the 6m crank with the thick block, which is what mine has. Along with the early engine mounts.

All 89's have 6M crank.

Early 89's have early mounts. (Up to 01/89).
Late 89's have late mounts (01/89+)

There was a part number change on the block in 03/89. Not sure if that's when it changed to the thicker type, but it seems likely.

Crank changed in 08/89, which coincides with the introduction of the 1990 model year. In other countries (Japan, etc), this would still be considered a 1989 Supra, here it is a 1990.

Well, I am down, I need to regenerate some wins here. I guess Now I know what cranks comes with what years.

Less talk for me, more research. :3d_frown:

I I checked the bearing and the two main caps at each end had some good wear. The crank itself has no wear which I guess is great for me, I don't need the crank but yeah.
