I installed my rebuilt head last weekend and I plugged the EGR port (on the back of the head, dumb move I know). After driving it for the week I feel like it is running a little hotter than before. After pulling it apart and seeing all of the carbon I blamed it on the EGR. Any way, I am...

what MUST be changed to convert my AC from R-12 TO 134?

Would anyone happen to know the part number? toyota said they need a P# to get them thanks

I pressed the AC button whenever I saw it. Last time I tried to adjust it using the TSRM it didn't work so this time I did it on a bench, with a good meter. Going to bed now, I will fix that leak tomorrow. thanks guys

i am such a jack ass! i forgot to plug the afm back in after i had tried to pressure test it. now i am getting a damn 51!! i hate the 51! when I had the throttle body off i set it perfect as per the tsrm. i spraied it on the front corner of the gasket betwen the bottom runner and the main...

thanks guys, i was getting on here to edit the o2 crap that i had put ( earlier i had a 21 and i guess that i had them mixed up) i think i narowed down the vac leak. i sprayed carb cleaner on part of the manafold and it made the car bog down. that sucks, all of the gaskets are new.

ok guys, i am beat down. i have been at it all day, i guess i am not a fast mechanic. i have been reassembaling my car from having my head rebuilt. as of now i am getting a code 24 and a 31. the car is bone stock with a cometic headgasket and arps. i am also getting a vacume leak, it is loud and...

does toyota sell OEM injector clips?

motor is still in the car. All of this was just to replace a burnt valve. It is just a bone stock car, not a race car. please only useful advice. Any one else? Thanks.

I got all of the carbon off of the pistons and I pollished the deck surface clean. The problem is the head is under 20 RA, but the block looks bad, at least compaired to the head. I don't know what to do. I have a cometic 2mm that calls for 50 or less RA and I also have a stock gasket. I really...

how do you guys clean the carbon build up off of the pistons?

Took the advice fellas. I am pretty sure that this will get the job done. Brand new Proto 1/2" 30-150 lb, with certifacite. Thanks fellas!

"Anyways, heres my question. When looking at calipers there are regular, semi-loaded, and fully loaded. Never heard of this? What are the differences?" where did you hear about this?

not sure bout that but if you are changing all of that change the hoses to

anyone got pics of twin 2.5" pipes

My wife has been so cool so far, I dont want to bend her till she breakes. I am at the $1500 dollar point so far (not including an ebay head that I got burnt on that I am still trying to get my money back on)

Ok, I fianaly have most of my parts together, picked up my head form the machinest (not cheap but beautiful), Toyota head set with a few new hoses, ARP studs, & my tested injectors. My new cometic head gasket should be in tomorrow. My question is the company I work for has a Craftsman Microtork...

not sure but it couldnt hurt to try. that was why i did it on my old car. after that i would floor it an just smile.:biglaugh:

I just skimmed over the post in your sig and I bet that it is your linkage.

That sounds like what I was talking about in post #4. Has your turbo ever been out of the car? Is there any chance that that linkage could have gotten bent? You probablly couldnt even see the differance if it was.
