Fri, 15 July 2005 07:47 For those interested: Toyota don't record engine numbers apparently, so they have no way of telling what year an engine is from the engine number alone. However, there are two other accessories (starter motor & alternator) that they DO record the numbers for. So provided your accessories are original, you should be able to find out your engine age. My starter motor was definitely not original (had wrecker writing on it), however the alternator appeared original. According to the alternator, my engine is late 94/early 95. Hard to say for sure because sometimes the accessories are manufactured BEFORE the head and the block, and assembled later. At least I now know my engine isn't more than about 10 years old.
