Toyota Master Ace Surf engines
Toyota Master Ace Surf was produced from 1988 to 1991. During these three years, a large number of cars were sold. It is noteworthy that on the road you can still meet Toyota Master Ice Surf in good condition, this once again emphasizes the high quality of the Japanese manufacturer's cars.
The car was sold in very different trim levels, each driver could easily choose the option for his own needs. The only negative in this car is the location of the engine. The motor is located under the floor of the passenger, which significantly complicates access to the internal combustion engine if necessary, the only good news is that the engines on these machines were extremely reliable and did not require attention from car owners.
Motors
The smallest powertrain is a 1,8 liter 2Y-U petrol engine capable of producing 79 horsepower. Such a motor was also installed on two other Toyota models (Lite Ace and Town Ace). This is a reliable power unit (in-line, four-cylinder). It is adapted to Russian fuel and is not “naughty” about this, it can run on AI-92 and AI-95 gasoline.
3Y-EU is a more torquey engine, its working volume is exactly two liters and it is capable of developing power up to 97 “horses”. This engine can also be found on Toyota models such as:
- Little Ace;
- Town Ace.
This is also an in-line “four”, which does not cause problems for the owner, the engine calmly “eats” our gasoline, without problems and consequences for the fuel system. Runs on AI-92 and AI-95 gasoline.
If in the line of engines and "diesel". This is a 2C-T with a capacity of 85 horsepower (the working volume is two liters exactly). This power unit in the combined cycle with moderate driving consumes only about five liters of fuel per hundred kilometers (with passengers and cargo). The motor does not swear at the Russian solarium. Such an engine was also installed on other models of the manufacturer's cars:
- Caldina;
- Camry;
- Nice;
- Carina E;
- Crown Award;
- Little Ace;
- Town Ace;
- Vista.
Specifications of Toyota Master Ace Surf engines
In order to make it convenient and visual to obtain information on power units for a given vehicle, we will summarize all the basic data in one general table:
| Engine model name | Working volume (l.) | Engine power(hp) | fuel type | Number of cylinders (pcs.) | Motor type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2Y-U | 1,8 | 79 | Petrol | 4 | Inline |
| 3Y-EU | 2,0 | 97 | Petrol | 4 | Inline |
| 2C-T | 2,0 | 85 | Diesel | - | Inline |
Any of these motors is reliable and of high quality, with an extremely impressive resource. Toyota engines traditionally do not cause problems and are simple, such engines are completely maintainable and common, if necessary, you can always quickly and relatively inexpensively find a contract engine.
Reviews
People love powertrains from Toyota, there are no problems with them and you can always repair them yourself. These are real workhorses. It is worth saying that on the roads you can still see Toyota Master Ace Surf with a native engine, moreover, there are cars that have not even had a “capital”, and the runs are already significant, because the cars are already over thirty years old.
I am glad that many spare parts can still be found new and in the original version.
Such manufacturer support is sometimes very lacking when it comes to any other brand, and not about Toyota. Also in the reviews there is rosy information that the manufacturer sets prices for spare parts for its engines relatively democratically. High mileage and age are not a sentence for Toyota Master Ice Surf engines, it is much more important to find a properly serviced copy, but they exist.
