5E
The 5E is a 1.5 L (1,497 cc) DOHC 16-valve version. Output ranges from 93 hp (69 kW; 94 PS) at 5,400 rpm to 110 PS (81 kW; 108 hp) at 6,400 rpm with 91 lb⋅ft (123 N⋅m) of torque at 3,200 rpm to 100 lb⋅ft (136 N⋅m) of torque at 4,000 rpm. It was introduced in 1990 and discontinued in 1998. All 5E engines are fuel-injected. In 1995 Toyota changed the ignition system to a distributor-less (DIS), coil-on-plug design, switched from OBD to OBD-II and began using flat topped pistons. This ignition design uses two coils. Each coil mounts on top of a spark plug, but also has a cable run to another cylinder’s spark plug. This is known as a “wasted spark design”. It is electrically similar to engines that have a coil pack. The spark plug fires in both directions (center-to-side, and side-to-center). Double platinum plugs are used with this engine to prevent premature side electrode wear. A much thinner 0.26 mm (0.01 in) head gasket is used to increase compression after the piston domes were removed, and dual electrode spark plugs were installed on California emission models.[citation needed] In 1996 the connecting rods changed to the same thinner ones used in the second generation 4E-FE. In 1997 a return-less fuel system was added.
