I have only heard good thinks about the Valentine 1, the boss at the shop has one in his miata and he says it saved him over 10 times.
Well worth the $500, and on my lists of parts
haha
i think from what your opinion is, I have come with what I will do.
post it for sale,
and look for a cheap decent harness..
if it sell then I will dump that money into the miata or if I find a harness then I have a good long weekend to bond with the supra.
either way whether...
haha I understand where you coming from...
its not that a $500 part unnerves me, it just that at the giving time, I would rather spend $500 on the other car cause that is either: just shy of a MSPNP for the miata... or an 80% rebuilt FE3T motor.
working on the car doesn't brother me, I...
Ok I know at first most people will say keep the car.
Here is the deal:
I got the car for cheap... $500 bucks
When I got it had a bad water pump and the clutch hub was shot.
I replaced the clutch hub but was waiting on the water pump, till after the hub.
Now I have a new issue...
Well alot of people don't know but when you buy carbon fiber there is different weaves.
Theres:
Carbon/Carbon: which is carbon fiber woven with carbon fiber.. which is what is used in most exterior parts
Carbon/Kevlar: which is a carbon fiber woven with a Kevlar fiber which had strength but...
Well I was thinking getting one of them to recharge the battery.
I will double check to make sure make sure the ground by the starter is ok, but I didn't see any ground wires but who knows..
1) that is what I was thinking
2) also what i am thinking, but I checked spark using a different...
Well went out and tried the car again today... still nothing.
Its in the mid 70 so it not cold out..
I tried some carb cleaner in the intake and that didn't really change anything.. so I am thinking maybe not a fuel issue.
To best describe what its doing during cranking:
there is two...
Thanks for that help info.
It is getting some fuel during start up, due to the nice backfire that will happen right after I stop trying to crank the motor... but I am wondering if it is not enough to start the car, cause the backfire happens about ever third or so try. It starting to sound...
Thanks Jet for that info...
I am starting to wonder if maybe it just do to the cold, cause I know the cold start on the supra was even that good, she always had a little issuse when it was really cold out.
I wonder if it a combo of... cold weather + weak battery + small vacuum leak...
lol check that three times already... each time I mess with the intake piping i recheck that cause I did that with my DSM, but the DSM was able to run(not well) not like the supra
OK so I replace a few hoses today that were old and rock hard.
When trying to start it this evening, it was just on the edge of starting...
I know there is fuel now cause the d*mn thing would backfire after trying to start it quickly a few times in a row.
I pulled the no 1 spark plug...
Well since this got no respond in Gen, I will try here now....
ok so i finally put the supra back together.. well at least enough to be trying to start it. (exhaust isn't all the way on and I still need to bleed the clutch)
Here is my problem, the car will crank but won't start.
Here is...
