I complained here sometime ago about my Toyota camry 2.2LE smoking engine, @Gazzus suggested that I replace the engine..now the engine is finally gone. I traveled with it from school back home it started to give a knocking sound 30minutes before I got home, I managed it home though with excess fuel consumption.
I want expert to suggest if it will be ideal to replace it with HALF ENGINE, which is what I can afford soon or a complete one?
Thanks

Half engine..What is the condition of the half engine?
Is it still a standardal one..the bore,pistons,rings,cam&crankshaft etc..get a good mechanic to do proper check and your good to go.
Always have a thorough check, on your car before embarking on a,long journer to avoid demages to engine's components.

Half engine will work but...

To restore that feel of a 2.2 camry, its best you replace the entire engine just as Gazzuzz has suggested.

Thanks for the suggestions I really do appreciate....Hoping for cash to get the Engine.
Btw does anyone how much the whole engine will cost?

Shld not be more than 80k though you can get it for less.

Don't forget to look into the engine oil filler hole and at the cap of the engine you are buying. Check for oil residue in them to avoid buying an engine filled with sludge.

Bro, get a half Engine its same thing ok? Provided ur alternator, compressor, power steering pump, engine sensor, are all working, there no need to buy complete engine if u are not buoyant. I bought half engine and I'm rocking my camry real tight now....btw, the engines are of 2 types..the 3s and the 5s....the 3s is mostly used by toyota picnic, the 5s is a bigger Engine with more power, its d recommended follow come camry engine! The choice is urs ....thank me later !
