I don’t think this is 4 cylinder engine

 

But thanks

 

The picture above is of a 2.7l - 2TR-FE -4 cylinder engine. This engine was found in the 2005-2015 Tacoma.

 

@Jimmyh is the guy to see about the 2.7. I think he has one, and has put up a lot of good info and diagrams.

I don’t have a 2.7.
If I did, I’d try to get a pic for you.

 

Are ya saying you don’t know what you have or you don’t know what a 4 cylinder engine looks like. Very clearly pictured above.

 

No I don’t know where the temp sensor needs to go in my 05 4 cylinder
Thank you all
Just stranded in Blythe and got the part from autozone
But don’t know where to change it

 

2TR-FE - 4 cylinder
Of course @Jimmyh came through again.

To find it, you’ll probably need to stand on the drivers side of the truck, close to the windshield. Look behind the intake manifold at the rear of the cylinder head.

 

Thank you
But this diagram doesn’t show the exact location where it need to go
The temp sensor

 

Do I need to
Go
Under the car to charge it?

 

Pretty sure this is it, above the starter.
Might be hard to do on the ground.
And the intake manifold looks like it is all in the way.


Hang tight OP. Jimmyh will know.
I tagged him. He will pop in here soon and confirm.

 

That looks good
Driver side?

 

Yes.

 

I’m sure that’s the one now looks like bitch to take it out on the parking lot

 

Sorry I have been busy baby sitting the granddaughter the last few days. I see that TnShooter has everything in hand as always!

It is a bitch to get to, but it can be done with patience. Not too sure how easy it will be to do in a parking lot with limited tools.

I would go for it from the bottom as it is a Prerunner it may not bee too bad. A 4WD would be a lot harder.

Are you sure that is your issue?
