2005 Toyota Matrix - 1ZZFE - Valvetrain Pictures

[Clevy]

Another boring spotless high mile M1 engine. Move along,nothing to see here. It's just a tier 3 oil made from questionable raw materials and it would be much cleaner with amsoil.

All kidding aside thanks for posting. We love valve cover porn.
I might pull a VC off my charger this summer just to look. Maybe at 100000 miles.

Thanks for the pics OP.

Me, I think the engine is very clean with 7-10k OCI with synthetic oil. Probably because easy drive and few cold starts.

Wow, when I rebuilt my 01 1ZZ-FED b/c of piston design flaw, there was a lot of varnish, even my 2ZZ-GE was varnished, your pictures give me hope that I can clean up the varnish with good oils. Thank You.

That looks great!

Give me hope that my MR2 will be looking good... whenever it makes it to 220K... which would be in 40 some years based on my mileage.
