Hey all. Before someone says go search! I have and came up with nada. If you can point me to a post then cool
what are the visual differences between a gen1/2/3 1G-GTE?
I've seen these photo's
gen 1 or 2?
gen3 apparently
I understand the lower one is a gen3, but is the upper one a gen 1 or 2? and are these pictures typical of what the engines look like?
cheers all

gen 1: Yellow ECU plugs and Yellow injectors. 0.50bar / 7psi.
gen 2: Yellow ECU plugs and pale Green injectors. 0.62bar / 9psi
gen 3: Grey ECU plugs and pale Green injectors. 0.75bar / 11psi

Would these be the same for the GZE or would there be different visual differences?

Telling the difference between Gen1 and Gen2 is easy (injectors).
If you don't have the ECU plugs, does that mean you don't have a loom?
We don't know much about the GZEs... But I don't think they don't have intercoolers so they won't look like the engines in those pix...

gzes didnt have intercoolers. but if it's a stripped motor the way to tell is off the rocker covers or the inlet manifold if it is still there. the rocker covers dont have the big stepped up oil filling point. and the gze inlet runners are more individual

I don't known anything about the water to air motors. I thought that they were all gen 1 but could be wrong, maybe someone could clear that up.
The second engine is 'not obviously' a gen 3 it could be a 2 or 3. At first glance they look the same. Nark suggests looking at injector plugs and injectors - that is a good guide but is not always correct. There are a number of ways of telling apart the gen 2s and 3s. Bigger outlets on the turbos on the 3, very different exhaust manifolds internally. Big plug on the computer has 26 pins for the gen 3 against 24 for the gen 2. The TPS is also different with one plug for the gen 3 and 2 for the gen 2. The sensors on the engine are also different. The engine number of the gen 3 is on the bit that connects to the bell housing while the gen 2 is on the side of the block. I am sure that there are things that I have forgotten. I have posted all of this on a number of occassions in the past.
Might help if I knew what you were looking at.
