EG-16 ENGINE — 2TR-FE ENGINE

JLUBRICATION SYSTEM
1. General
D The lubrication circuit is fully pressurized and all oil passes through an oil filter.
D The trochoid gear type oil pump is driven directly by the crankshaft.
D The chamber for the oil pump rotor has been placed in the timing chain cover to achieve a simpler
construction and a compact engine.
D Piston oil jets are used to lubricate and cool the pistons. Chain tensioner oil hole have been provided to
lubricate the balance shaft chain and timing chain.
D An oil delivery pipe has been provided to deliver engine oil to the cams and roller rocker arms in order
