5l engine I have a 5L-E toyota hilux that runs fine at idle yhen when you rev it to about 2000 rpm it starts to blow alot of white smoke. I have cut injectors out while the smoke is blowing with no noticable change. I have run it from a clean fuel container no change. Air filter has been changed and filters all has made no differance. Oh and the engine check light comes on but goes off as soon as you stop reving it. Any ideas? It has 200k on it.

Sounds like you have a leaking head gasket maybe. Does the smoke have a sweet smell to it? If not it is oil or fuel.

SOURCE: starts first time, no smoke on normal running,

It could be a coolant or transmission fluid leak in the combustion chamber. Check your coolant and transmission fluid to see if one or both are low. White smoke from the exhaust is a classic symptom of a blown head gasket, have your cooling system pressure checked. If that checks out good then have your transmission checked.

SOURCE: I have a toyota hilux 2.7 3rzfe engine.On start up

This was the first symptom that the head gasket was going on my hilux 2.7 3rzfe. Soon afterward I started getting the tell tale white smoke in the exhaust until the engine had warmed up and a noticable coolant loss... That can cause rough running until the 'leaky' cylinder has warmed up and dried out...

Toyota Hilux - 5L engine. The vehicle is noisy during idling and running. Its pick up pace is low even though it doesn't smoke. It doesn't give me optimum power as it struggles to hit 120km/hr

Check Air Intake/ clean or replace air filter. Also, plugs could need replacement. Noisy or rough idle could be plugs not firing properly after the engine has warmed up, but I would check the air filter first. I hope this helps.

i believe the engine is running too lean as if it was running too rich it would blow black smoke If it was blue smoke it is oil related eg valve stem seals,valve guides and or piston rings all of these things will create blue smoke if one of the above is worn out

3lt diesel hilux 2002 (5L-E engine, non turbo). when i slow down the oil light comes on and the gear shift shakes like the vehcile is about to stall. doesnt happen every time, maybe 1 out of every 5 times...

85% of the diesel engine problem is the fuel system. and rest 15%, if met, is a major problem. you have to check the filter. and make the fuel line solid. means no air in the system.
