    Engine light on dash controlled by?

    Went to start my car at a friends house last night and it would crank over forever but not actually fire up. I noticed the engine light on the dashboard was not lighting up...so I fiddled with the fuses in the engine bay/kick panel (I took out the brake light one) and it fired right up. What...

    rust help

    If that's your plan, then yes, that would work. Better have a triple A card or something though. And make sure ALL the rust is gone. There's a lot more than just what you see...it'll come back in a different spot if you don't catch it all.

    ffim available in the near future?

    Will you be taking the rapid prototype to use as a cast to make a mold, to use to cast the aluminum? Can't wait for pics...any chance I could give you a call sometime? I have a few somewhat related questions to ask :icon_bigg

    How to fix Vacuum Pressure with only 1 source.

    Vacuum is the absence of pressure (or negative pressure, pick one). It's similar to lightness and darkness: darkness is the absence of light. It doesn't matter how you say it, vacuum pressure, vacuum level, just vacuum...whatever :icon_razz Suprasport does sell it, and that would be a...

    Heater fan stopped working

    New resistor put in, problems ensue. Low, medium and high officially work, but only about 25% of what they should. I can hear the blower motor whirring, but it's a lot louder than it should be, and once or twice it sounded like it was clicking or hitting something, and it slowly twirled to...

    CPS Resistance

    With those resistance values you'll have about two thirds of the current you should have, which probably isn't enough to run the CPS properly. You should head in that direction lol :icon_razz

    Heater fan stopped working

    There's a silver fuse box in the passenger kick panel that I had to poke a needle through to reset, it clicked when I poked it down. All the wires look fine and all the connectors were in place when I looked under there. I took our the blower motor and wired it straight to the car battery, it...

    Heater fan stopped working

    :D Thanks haha. Sucks about the carpet :( I'll remember to put it in there tightly when I get the new one. I think it's the motor though, because the only coil that is broken is the low and the fan didn't turn on at all...I'll find out on Monday, and also clean out any gunk that's behind the...

    Heater fan stopped working

    87 Supra Turbo, vsv already bypassed but that doesn't matter because the fan doesn't turn on. I searched and the fuse for the heater fan is in the passenger kickpanel. I just took out the kickpanel and I see a few fuses behind the ECT box but none were popped out (unless I have to replace it, I...

    Strange things found while working on Supras.

    Previous owner left me a bunch of unused cotton swabs in the glovebox. Found a 1/4" extension in the engine bay.

    Hoods with cowl removed?

    Time to go watch that music video... I like the hood the way it is, it's a very strong line. I was always interested in the opposite, raising the cowl a little bit to vent air from the engine bay. Too easy to raise it too much and make it look weird though.
