    Alternator trouble, can't figure it out. HELP!!!

    Do you know how to test 3 wires? I found this, but i'm not sure i'm testing this correctly. I'm getting 11.xx Volts from wire #2 to ground... If i'm doing this correctly, then this is probably where my problem is. I'm just unsure about where to look to narrow down the source of the problem...

    Alternator trouble, can't figure it out. HELP!!!

    I'm having a similar problem and I think my engine is frying the alternators (1 old and 2 new) i'm installing... Is there a way to check proper functioning of the 3 wires in the plug that go into the alternator. Did OP ever fix his problem?

    If you are following the TSRM, make sure you turn counterclockwise and clockwise when specified... I had a FAIL experience because I would read counterclockwise as clockwise so I was always 180 degrees off... :P Drove me nuts lol... Also do the CPS exactly as the TSRM says... :) Are...

    No, that's not possible... When the cam gears were put back on, was the pin properly reinstalled into the middle hole? Important!!! I know there's no Code 15... Maybe your ECU is toast... :( Hope not... But if you get an unexpected code, reset the ECU and try again...

    My guess first off would be that you don't have spark or spark at the right time. Step one: Check CPS. (This has always been my stupid downfall after rebuilds, only I have an 7MGE. <----------DO THIS FIRST http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=IG&P=21 Step two...

    Insteresting starting problem...

    ALSO: the Resistance on my Injectors was about 44ohms @ 70 degrees F (TSRM says they should be at 38ohms.) Could this be a major problem?

    Insteresting starting problem...

    Like too much pressure? Or too little? Also, by taking the EFI fuse out i will not get spark, so how would the extra fuel burn up? It may be pushed out by the exhaust, but not burned up. Do you think it's a clogged/pinched that is causing this?

    Insteresting starting problem...

    I have a distributor, but yes i checked it and set it up according to the TSRM. If i had a ground problem to the coils wouldn't I not get spark and wouldn't i get no ignition at all?

    Question about ARP Head Studs?

    Sears didn't have a thin-wall, so i got a regular 14mm 12pt 1/2" and it was too big w/o removing the cams... :( Anyone know where else i can get a thin-wall 14mm 12pt 1/2"?
