Toyota's Best Diesel Engine 4 Cylinder around? 15B-FTE Engine Overview. Toyota Megacruiser Engine

[@duncananselmus2558]

Yo dude! Duncan here from KK, but currently in KL. I own a Land Cruiser J80(Stock) planning to modify. Would be interested to meet up and talk to you about it when i’m back in KK. Very insightful vid bro

[@TAI-lr5vr]

Hey there Duncan! Glad you enjoyed the video 😍 Would love to meetup with you once lockdowns are over 😃

@@TAI-lr5vr does 15bft have timing chain? or timing belt

[@seanlittlefair105]

Nice work. Thanks.

[@vweeks181]

Yo thanks so much for this

[@jualcoccoc9112]

Love your vids, how about the fuel consumption of this engine compared to 1hd fte, n if u happen to have 1hdt fte, would you still be swapping for a 15bt?.. which one is the best for a daily driver

[@TAI-lr5vr]

Glad you enjoyed the video 😃. Personally a 15B-FTE when compared the 1HD-FTE is not really fair as the 15B is missing 2 Cylinders and the cost difference is Big. Fuel consumption wise it's about on par with a 13BT in a BJ74 (10.2L/100km ish) with it sipping ever so slightly more juice. Hope you find it helpful

[@TAI-lr5vr]

For a daily 1HD all day everyday as the inline-6 smoothness makes it less of an agricultural truck and more like an actual car

[@TheDoucheness]

does this 15bft have timing gears? or timing chain or timing belt?

[@ojbarberena7090]

Hello I'm thinking of putting a 15B-FT into a Nissan Patrol Y61 what's your opinion? How can I increase power? The patrol currently has a ZD30DI. THANKS! cheers from Colombia south America

[@patriciapayton1338]

hello tai 392 would i still need the intercooler if i run mechanical fuel pump? and how smokey will it run?

[@leftardtroller]

Im from aus i want to put a 15bft in my cruiser i have the 1hdt but they are limited to max 200-250hp should be able to see 300-400hp from 15bft

[@El_Nortino]

Hi there, great video and i know its old but i need you knowledge for a FJ60 with 15BFT engine i am thinking maybe to buy, can you help me with that? best regards

[@TAI-lr5vr]

I think I can assist you somewhat. Instagram tai392 or email me with my address: [e-mail]

[@philiplahm2420]

Wow..i own one..very powerful engine

[@glennvdbusse9818]

Great video. I own a 1988 Dyna truck that has the 13B engine and my son is looking at a later model Dyna that has the 15B F engine it's my understanding that both engines do not have a cambelt or chain system but use a gear system is that correct and does this year system require any regular maintenance at all. Regards Glenn from New Zealand

[@lronpaw]

Correct, no timing chain/belt maintenance required

[@vweeks181]

It would also be a bit helpful to isolate your voice for more clarity

[@kaisdz8211]

very good video very interesting thank you

To make a diesel conversion of a grand cherokee wj 4.7 v8. Of the two options, which one would you choose ?: 1. 15bft motor (not electronic) 2. 4jj1t engine (electronic injection) Greetings from Ecuador. Thanks a lot

Hi where about is your workshop

[@TAI-lr5vr]

Hey there, this is my friends place,not mine unfortunately 😁

[@shaquedelilicss7849]

I want one! Can you sheep it to EU?

[@TAI-lr5vr]

I have been in contact with wink 4x4 in Holland so that might actually happen

[@alves1141]

what you think about the 1kz-te engine?

[@TAI-lr5vr]

They're an alright engine for sure. Some locally mod them with tons of power. It's a decent bit of kit for sure 😁

[@ianpereira4160]

@@TAI-lr5vr the 15bte has an electric fuel pump and an auto box. How do u get it to work with a manual or other gearboxes

[@TAI-lr5vr]

@@ianpereira4160 Hey there! We normally take the E-pump off the FTE and convert to run mechanical injection. It's possible to swap in H151F's behind these engines provided you have the right shafts. Not entirely sure for details as of now 😅

[@ianpereira4160]

@@TAI-lr5vr thank you for your reply. The video is very informative. Just not sure the difference in 15b block vs 15 fte block or head?

[@TAI-lr5vr]

@@ianpereira4160 oh the block itself is mostly the same bar the piston oil squirters for the FTE version and some other ancillaries.

[@shaquedelilicss7849]

I can get 15bft or 15bfte ... for my smokey hj60 Not sure .. .about the electrics.

[@danielspoon1234]

Aussies would be too scared to give up there boat anchor 1hds because 4 cylinder engines scare them

[@TAI-lr5vr]

Well they're both different in how they deliver the torque. 15B sucker punches down low whilst the 1HD can keep the RPM'S going. It's a matter of preference 😁

[@danielspoon1234]

@@TAI-lr5vr yeah well that's down to a bunch of factors I have an Isuzu 4jj1 and I get both, I think it's because of the 1hd smaller bore/stroke/and probably better flow through the rpm range where as the 15 having an enormous displacement was probably never designed to need to rev hard at all the I like the 1hd theg sound awesome go well but I don't think they go that well for what they are and I like fours the good ones go well and everyone hates them

[@TAI-lr5vr]

@@danielspoon1234 true 4JJ1 do have a bit of go on them 😁 The bore/stroke ratio for a 1HD is geared more towards revs which is ideal for making HP and relative torque but doesn't have that sucker punch feel down low. Love both equally tbh 😍

[@TheDoucheness]

@@TAI-lr5vr are these 15bfte timing gear or timing chain?

[@davidmilledge221]

It's a truck motor has to be a timing chain much stronger ​@@TheDoucheness

I can't hear shit from these birds you need a better mic setup

[@jasonmartinez8931]

As an experienced diesel, technician hearing you butcher everything about that engine was quite cringe to me. She talk about stuff that you know about not just guessing oh, direct injections must be better than whatever the hell it had before which is called indirect injection and just stop with the old talking about it. Shit just show the truck goddamn boy.

[@TAI-lr5vr]

Hey there I understand your viewpoint but this is a video made solely to address people who aren't extremely knowledgeable on the platform. I don't claim to know everything about these and if you have any more information you would like to let the audience know I am more than happy to assist
