    Solara injectors

    even if the impedence is wrong you can just add resistors to change it. I have 4 or 5 injectors from my rx-7 motors sitting at home so maybe I should consider that...

    clock doesn't work

    i know it's kind of a stupid problem but it bugs me. Any ways the fuse is good so is there a way I can fix this? Or should I just replace it?

    common dead tps symptoms? (very detailed problem writeup)

    Ok here's the deal, the TSRM says to test the IDL and E2 contacts for slightly open throttle and then the VTA and E2 for fully open and fully closed throttle. The IDL contact is the one that is giving me problems. But my car idles flawlessly. My problem is a misfire that comes on at...

    common dead tps symptoms? (very detailed problem writeup)

    yes, as per TSRM i checked both sets of pins and everything checked out, the only problem was the resistance at .5mm open throttle was very bouncy and jumped from 50 ohms up to 1.8k ohms and back down very sporadically. I'm just wondering that if that one setting is that out of whack will it...

    resistance on coil packs

    well, it is a cheap meter that i'm using, but I've used it to test other things and it's proved to be a pretty accurate meter. JetJock: I'm not sure I understand what you mean by shorting them together and factoring that into my measurement. I'm pretty new to electrical stuff, could you...

    common dead tps symptoms? (very detailed problem writeup)

    hey guys I was testing my TPS and all the resistances were as the TSRM said it should be, except for when the throttle is open to .5mm At that point the resistance jumps around between 50 ohms and 1800 ohms. Could this cause a very bad misfire at light throttle?

    resistance on coil packs

    well, I've been trying to track down this damned misfire. I was testing all the coil packs resistance and voltage. The TSRM calls for .3-.5 ohms resistance for each coil pack and mine ended up being .9 ohms on each pack. Is this causing some problems?

    HARD to start when cold

    man i have the exact same problem. I mean EXACTLY everything you described happens to my car...I've changed plugs, wires, vacuum hoses, checked for vacuum leaks, new air filter, set TPS. I have another TPS here that I'm going to try and hopefully that will clear up my misfire. As for the hard...

    quick question about tps and isc...

    actually it's an ohmeter you need not a voltmeter sorry.

    quick question about tps and isc...

    hey man what's up! I recently adjusted my TPS with a voltmeter. You will also need some feeler gauges to hold the throttle open certain amounts. Here is the TSRM link http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/fi/FI_101.html I recommend just pulling off the throttle body to set it...

    Is $7775 too much to pay for MK3 turbo

    i paid 6k for my 90 turbo 5 speed light blue, and i wouldn't trade it out for anything else. Drive the car and pay attention to what it tells you, that is all i have to say.

    maybe i'm wrong but I believe that vacuum is directly related to compression. Do a compression test...

    Rattle...Tat...Tat...

    I have the exact same problem, it is a jingly kind of sound when you hit a bump in the road. I thought it was the exhaust at first too, but it is definitely suspension related.

    Which tranny and LSD oil?

    I just did the LSD oil about a week ago on my car, and I highly recommend it. I used Royal Purple Maxgear 70w90. It already contains LSD additives so you don't have to add any thing special. I believe that same oil works great in the tranny as well.

    Royal Purple FTW!

    I posted about a week ago that my car was making a vibration from the rearend around slowspeed corners and in parking lots. I opted to switch the gear oil out in the diff, and put in some Royal Purple. This made a huge difference, not only did it eliminate my vibration it also made cornering...

    tranny and diff oil change!

    Well, I've heard different opinions on Redline. Although I personally believe that it would work great, it is definitely a bit more on the expensive side than basic gear oils. Also I would like to be able to get some by tonight and there aren't any shops in my area that carry redline products...
