The 1L is the first L engine produced. 2.2L (2188cc), 4 cylinder diesel engine. Output is 62 hp (46.2 kW) at 4200 rpm and 93 ft·lbf (126 N·m).

[edit] 2L

The 2L is a 2.4 L (2446 cc) 4 cylinder diesel engine. Bore is 92 mm and stroke is 92 mm, with a compression ratio of 22.3:1. Output is 72 hp (53.6 kW) at 4000 RPM with 115 ft·lb (155.9 N·m) of torque at 2200 RPM.

The latest version is the 2L-II.

2L-II has Maximum Power (NET)：83HP @ 4,000 RPM. Maximum Torque (NET)： 17.0kg.m @ 2,400 RPM.

[edit] 2L-T

The 2L-T is a 2.4 L (2446 cc) turbo version of the 2L still being produced since 1985. The bore and stroke are the same but the 2L-T has a compression ration of 20:1. Output is 86 hp (64.1 kW) at 4000 RPM with 139 ft·lb (188.4 N·m) of torque at 2200 RPM.

[edit] 2L-TE

Developed as a new version of 2L-T, the 2L-TE features a new development used in Diesel engines at that time, the EFI(Electronic Fuel Injection) system. Although Toyota used this fuel injection system in gasoline engines years before, this is among the first Diesel engines to adopt such a system. Although the basic construction is similar to a modern gasoline injector, the EFI system in 2L-TE utilize considerably higher injection pressures. The EFI system meter fuel with great precision and succeeded in increasing the engine's efficiency. Like the 2L-T , it is 2.4L (2446cc) and it is a SOHC (Single Overhead Cam) engine, having 8 valves. It also comes with a Turbo charger. The bore is 92 mm and stroke is also 92 mm. Due to the EFI system, the 2L-TE is stronger than 2L-T, having maximum output of 97HP (72.3kW) at 4000 RPM and maximum torque is 24.54kg.m at 2400 RPM. Redline of this engine is at 4800 RPM. Compression ratio is 21.0:1, slightly higher than 2L-T. 2L-TE was replaced by the KZ engine in the year 1993.

This engine was used in Toyota Hi-Lux and in Toyota Land Cruiser Prado
