Wondering if someone can help me out. I have a 42-3FGC15, SN 10566. The 4X in the model number pertains to engine, according to Toyota the engine could be either a 4Y or a 5R. I am trying to decide which engine I have.

I did change my oil today and to access the OEM filter, I had to turn the wheels sharp and change the filter out via the wheel well in the "right" rear. I believe the 4Y engine has the filter on the "left" side near the distributor, but not sure. (Left and right based on a driver sitting in the driver's seat of forklift)

Can someone tell me if I have a 5R or 4Y via the oil filter location?

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
