4afc Engine

[Hans]

Hi,

 

I'm not very familiar with the 4AFC engine.. i have a corolla that has it, did some research on google, learnt a bit.

 

but i couldnt make sense of this photo below..

 

what is that black cylinder "thing" where the air filter should sit?

 

 

thanks :D

That is not supposed to be there. Looks like someone has attached an aftermarket filter (aka pod) onto it, and that adaptor is what remains. the standard filter housing should fit where the adaptor is fitted on top of the carby. Likewise, there should be a breather hose that runs into the bottom of the filter housing from the breather filter on the valve cover.

hey mate i own a corolla with the same engine. the black cylinder is definitely not meant to be there.. i have a pic here of what it should look like at stock.

Looking at your photo, your fuel filter is not in the correct place either, where it is meant to be is on the right side of the engine bay in a holder, but what i don't understand is why the PCV (Positive Crancase Ventilation) looks to be connected to the filter

 

Hope this helps,

in that picture it looks like there is a fuel filter attached to the valve cover breather.

That picture is of a left hand drive car. you can see the brake booster is on the opposite side to where it should be.

Cheap catchcan.

 

BTW the black thing is a spray can lid.
