Toyota 3MZ-FE Engine Specifications

The Toyota 3MZ-FE is a 3.3 l (3,310 cc, 201.99 cubic inches) V6, four-stroke cycle water-cooled naturally aspirated internal combustion gasoline engine, manufactured by the Toyota Motor Corporation since 2004. The engine has 6 cylinders in a V arrangement at a bank angle of 60 deg. The 3MZ-FE engine features a lightweight aluminum block with a four-bearings crankshaft and two aluminum heads with two camshafts (DOHC) and four valves per cylinder (2 intake valves and 2 exhaust valves). The Toyota 3MZ-FE engine is equipped with SFI (Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection) system, ETCS-i (Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent), DIS (Direct Ignition System) with individual coils on each spark plug and VVTi (Variable Valve Timing) system for the intake camshafts. A 92.0 mm (3.62 in) cylinder bore and 83.0 mm (3.27 in) piston stroke give the motor a total of 3,310 cc of displacement. Compression ratio rating is 10.8:1. The Toyota 3MZ-FE engine produced from 210 PS (155 kW; 208 HP) at 5,600 rpm to 234 PS (172 kW; 231 HP) at 5,600 rpm of maximum power and from 288 Nm (29.4 kgm; 212.5 ft-lb) at 4,400 rpm to 328 Nm (33.5 kgm; 242.0 ft-lb) at 3,600 rpm of torque depending on year and vehicle model.

CYLINDER BLOCK

The 3MZ-FE engine has an aluminum cylinder block in a V arrangement at a bank angle of 60 deg.. From the front of the RH bank cylinders are numbered 1-3-5, and from the front of the LH bank cylinders are numbered 2-4-6. This engine’s firing order is 1-2-3-4-5-6. The engine has press-fitted cast-iron cylinder liners.

The crankshaft is supported by 4 bearings and integrated with 9 semi counterweights for balance. Oil holes are placed in the center of the crankshaft for supply oil to the connecting rods, bearings, pistons and other components.

Pistons are made of high temperature-resistant aluminum alloy. Piston pins are the full-floating type. The Toyota 3MZ-FE motor has two compression and one oil control rings. The cylinder bore is 87.5 mm (3.44 in), piston stroke is 83 mm (3.27 in) mm and compression ratio rating is 10.5:1.

CYLINDER HEAD

The cylinder head is made of aluminum alloy, with a cross-flow type intake and exhaust layout and with pent-roof type combustion chambers. The spark plugs are located in the center of the combustion chambers.

The exhaust camshafts are driven by a single timing belt, and a gear on the exhaust camshaft engages with a gear on the intake camshaft to drive it. The camshaft journal is supported at 5 places between the valve lifters of each cylinder and on the front end of the cylinder head.

Exhaust and intake valves are equipped with irregular pitch springs made of special valve spring carbon steel which are capable of following the cam profile at all engine speeds. The intake valve diameter is 34.0 mm (1.33 in) and the exhaust valve diameter is 27.3 mm (1.07 in).

Adjustment of the valve clearance is done by means of an outer shim type system, in which valve adjusting shims are located above the valve lifters. This permits replacement of the shims without removal of the camshafts.

Valve clearance adjustment data
Calculate the thickness of new adjusting valve shim so valve clearance comes within specified values.

R = Thickness of removed valve shim
N = Thickness of new valve shim
M = Measured valve clearance

Intake:
N = R + [M - 0.20 mm (0.008 in)]
Exhaust:
N = R + [M - 0.30 mm (0.012 in)]

Valve shims are available in 17 sizes to range from 2.50 mm (0.0984 in) to 3.30 mm (0.1299 in), in steps of 0.05 mm (0.0020 in).

Example (exhaust valve):
R = 2.70 mm
M = 0.52 mm
N = 2.70 + (0.45 - 0.30) = 2.85 mm.
