    Thermostat question

    Thermostat maintains a minimum temperature, not a maximum temperature. The cooling system (radiator, coolant/water mix, fan, shrouds, water pump) maintain maximum temperature.

    Rich lights easy when the IAT and ECT are the same(cold). Lean lights easy with heat.

    full flow oil cooler conversion question

    It has been so long, I couldn't remember. And then I though the picture is wrong, which would not be the first mistake in the repair manual. I have a metric bolt in the pan.

    Pressure testing a radiator

    The adapter will depend on the pressure tester you buy. Meaning there are tool kits that have several adapters that work on most vehicles.

    7mgte and 7mge distributor

    The CPS is in both 7MGE and 7MGTE. The distributor has the secondary ignition components, hence the name. That is the only difference. You can put the CPS in the distributor hole.

    Rerouting coolant hoses?

    Didn't you say it was bypassed? Is there something wrong with fixing it? The valve limits coolant flow through the core in summer while not creating a void.

    The MAP is bottom of the barrel. It also goes on Tercels of the era and 5SFE Camrys. The 2JZGE uses the same high dollar Karman Vortex volume airflow meter. The 2JZGTE uses the hot wire mass air flow sensor. I am only referring to Toyota Motor Sales which is under Toyota Motor Corp.

    I almost forgot to say at certain temperatures. You certainly put time into this, but this tells me you lack information about desired characteristics of oil. The manufacturers go for flow, not pressure. Temperature affects it. Low temps increase resistance of the oil to flow and it shows up...

    USDM ECU to JDM

    Idle can not be ramped up to compensate for A/C when in drive with the brake on. Or you could hit the car in front of you. Especially the millennials on the board. As an example to what PI said.

    Wow this section is dead. Any other shooters here?

    They are. The only ones I would consider are in the $1400 range without the stamp. That is Wilson Combat and Sure Fire quick attach.
