4A-GE Maintenance

[Lucas Hunter]

Hi all,

I'm new to this site so excuse me if I'm doing anything wrong. I own an AE93 Corolla, the SX SECA model with a Redtop 4AGE. I've owned it for a year or so, and it's just clicked over to 250,000 k's. The car is running fine, however I can't help but think "how much longer is that 4AGE going to hang in there?" I don't think it's worth getting a full rebuild for it, but what are some good high-mileage refreshers for this engine?

if its not using too much oil, blowing smoke or making weird noises, dont touch it. Just keep it serviced, If it aint broke, dont fix it

just do a tune up.. replace the spark plugs and filters. ie fuel filter.. clean your throttle body.

check you timing.. all basic stuff mate!

Ive heard of 4AGE's going from 400-600k without a full rebuild.

If its running ok just service it regularly and you will be right for a while. My motor has done about 210k and it still pulls hard.. blows a heap of smoke though :P
