Your best bet is to call auto junk or salvage yards they are very good at knowing what is interchangeable, it may fit, you may just have to swap over the fuel system and maybe egr valve, but you must make sure the other sensors are the same and the wiring to motor will work.another thing is to strip motor down and swap over the intake and all sensors ive done this many times when motors are diffrent years,

The engine is right but the sensers and manifolds aren't likly to be right. Strip your engine to the longblock and install all those parts on the other engine and it'll work OK. or consider buying a reman long block

What's the number of teeth on the timing belt for 3s-fse engine

I know, , experience talks.
we buy new belt and the clerk gabs abox
1: wrong belt in box, last customer returned it like that.
2: clerk gave you wrong box used wrong engine table(GATES)
3: you told clear wrong and he did it wrong.
4: learn that some engines even same 1.6L displacement had 2 head types that year. or series of years.
my car here, has 3 belts sold for it, 2 are wrong, per above.
no belt brand told just 164 code (gates?)

OP never told it is a toyota , nor the year, wow no year.
3s-fse =1987 to 2000 year made. no car model told what can go wrong, answer ALL. that.
DOHC engine 2 cams. CR = 9.8 (3S-FC, 3S-FE, 3S-FSE)
2.0L engine 1,998 cc, 121.93 cu-in
step one make sure both belts new and used, laid top of each other have same number of teeth and pitch. (viewed) if not WRONG belt.
OOPS? (the new belt can be touch tighter.,old belt stretched be longer or even a wreck)
some models have VVT, in the head and may change the T belt USED, no car told no year, no VVT told.
1990 turbo?
1990 camry is gates T138
1990 turbo T125

if you buy a belt for the wrong 3s-HE engine you fail
learn what is there, first, under hood. exact engine
turbo or VVT or what, make and model and year not old.






???????????????????????????????????????????????????
we can only beg cars model.

Ngk spark plug are advisable to use in 4k engine

Best plugs to use are the manufacturers. Found this to be true on my Toyota 33re engine and various Fords. Also read over the years tests and reviews and they all came to the same conclusion- OEM plugs (and brake pads) work best.

Hi, my 1990 Toyota Camry with 3S-FE engine noises on timing belt side recently. I got my timing belt and water pump changed in 2006 December. So far I drove the car around 50,000km. I changed my power...

I had the same problem in my 3sFE, I thought the same way you did, but it turn out to be the fan, check if there is any play in the fan, change it and your scrutching noise will be no longer there

Power steering doesn't work - 1990 Toyota Forerunner 3.0 engine

It sounds like your power steering pump has gone out. If your resevoir has fluid and there are no power steering lines with holes in them, that would be the next option to look at. When the pump goes out the fluid cannot move throughout the tube to help give you assitance in steering. Change this pump and your power steering will be back to normal. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for using FixYa!

1988 olds trofeo digital dash

Knowing Honda, or any other car manufacturer in the 80's, they are probably the same. The only reason for a redesign of dash midway through a given generation of a car would be for cosmetics. If they look the same and they're only one year apart, its probably the same thing. Redesigns surrounding this generation were 1986 and 1990. probably the same.
