You can also run a Denso IK20 Iridium plug as well.

Nice of you to drop by, park 10 meters away with the engine running and basically stare at us for 20 minutes before driving off without saying boo.Just like you've done previously... ahahaha did this really happen o.o -
It's worth about what they offered you for it.
-
-
No sorry. I can't find any information on that part number(19101-8836Y).
-
18's are plenty big enough without compromising ride quality.
-
Here is a rough diagram of the wiring. It is the same part number used in the 3S-GTE.
-
Ok, the distributor is the correct part number. Have you double checked the spark plug leads?
-
What is the exact model of the car? It will most likely be ST18x something.
-
Short answer...no.
-
I didn't say that it was. I said that if it is, it will cause error. Did the new distributors plug straight in? Do you have any photos of the wiring coming from it? Have you also tried checking that the spark is firing at the correct time for each cylinder? You can do this by placing masking tape on the cam gear where that cylinder should be firing, and using a timing light on each respective spark lead.
-
You can use a 3S-GTE manifold and turbo on the 5S-FE, however the engine will fail much faster. Search 5S-FTE for more info.
-
The distributor with the different part number is the only thing that concerns me. If the wiring is different in any way it will cause error, i.e. firing at the incorrect time. The distributor acts as the camshaft and crankshaft position sensor(unless a crankshaft position sensor is fitted as well).
-
5S-GTE is very expensive but well worth it in the end.
-
Ok, I also have a spare 3S-GE head sitting at home that I will be using for a project, so I can have a look at the camshafts in that when I get back.
-
What colour is the smoke?
-
Is there anything stamped on the camshafts? Numbers, lettering, etc.?
-
If you were to swap the camshafts, would the positioning then be correct? I have a weird feeling they may have been re-installed incorrectly.
-
If you throw the cam gears on, you should be able to see the vertical line on the timing cover backing plate through the small hole drilled into the gear itself at TDC. It definitely sounds like a timing issue, however hard to say if it is a mechanical or triggering issue. I have seen cam and crank triggers mixed up previously causing a similar fault to what you are describing(backfire into intake). I have a heap of information at home on the 3S-GE, however the earliest I can get to that is Tuesday next week.

Nice of you to drop by, park 10 meters away with the engine running and basically stare at us for 20 minutes before driving off without saying boo. Just like you've done previously... promise i will be there next week lol what do you guys normally talk about? Definitely not cars, talking about them is unheard of and most are scorned upon for doing so. Perfect in my books.

Unlikely
-
It's not hard...they are hidden in the valley, it can be done without a workshop manual. Most people buy the repair manuals as it against forum rules for that material to be dispersed.

Hey Boz, long time no see, good to see you are still in the Toyota scene. You should throw some pics of the Lux up.

I am using DGR's in the Camry with no issues.
