Really, that sucks, i remember that too... Dang...

I know sometimes someone has extra to go around, if so please let me know, i am buying a supra from a couple people that dont know ANYTHING about the car, or cars in general, but it is a really good deal...

Maybe it is an EGR temp sensor for california cars. they just dont use the sensor for the other 49 states.

Suppose i am running lean, what r the symptoms? hard to start, rough idle, ect.

What id i was running a generic GM o2 sensor, coud there be an incombatibility? i was reading somewhere that there are 2 terminals on the DIAGNOSTIC box that will read the o2 signals, and spit out the ecu fuel compensation so you can see if the car is leaning for no reason or whatever.

FnA... i was so happy when i found something wrong, thats why may favorite car, and longest lasting car had carbs. Ill keep pondering and digging, eventually something will show up... BTW if i have good compression, ignition and valve timing are correct, and fuel preassure is adequate...

I did that with the belt installed, my car doesnt have the belt cover so it was easy, but the teeth liik fine however the belt looks warn and feels kinda gummy, infact there is a gummy residue on my pullies. Which makes me think if this damn belt is deteriorating why cant is streach... does that...

YES, my valves are closing too early and open too early. so the engine isnt sucking in all of the air is it supposed to, also the exhaust is evacuating early, which means the gas may not be fully burned before it hits my manifold, which explains the redness. nut there is definatly an issue that...

Now you tell me!!! i used a 1/4 drive 6in extension.JK :icon_conf Anyway I found out my belt somehow slipped a tooth, so i guess the valves are opening a bit early and allowing the fiery hell of the 7m to escape into my manifold and turbo....Time to drive 'Ol faithful...The DATSUN 240z. I...

I almost did when i figured id have to remove the pully and check that way...see you saved 2 lives and maybe a supra.

First off Yellow 13, im new and know what you mean...lol IJ Thanks, I never thought if the idea of the pully slipping, i need to do the belt anyway, that i will check. but if its off wont i see crappy idle? One think now that i think of it, it seems like my idle gets better the more retard i...

What could cause your turbo and manifold to glow red after an easy drive (hard drive dosent make a difference)? Hints: 3in full exhaust using crappy elbow Apexi Power intake ran like a dog..smooth but no power, a new TPS fixed that. AFM was taken from a friends car that used to run...

If possible could you take a few pics of the soeaker pods, i have a pair but am very curious as they dont have any backing! so i assume all the sound will fill the door, not the cabin and also water will easilt be able to get into the back of the speaker, how did toyota fit these? did they put...

Yea turned out to be the TPS, i got a bran-spanking-new one and all is good, well drives much better...Well for about 5 min till i blew off the IC hose...lol...supposedly the TPS caused the ECU to do funny things with the fuel and timing...i dont know the details, but i did notice the turbo a...

Yea turned out to be the TPS, i got a bran-spanking-new one and all is good...Well for about 5 min till i blew off the IH hose...lol...supposedly the TPS caused the ECU to do funny things with the fuel and timing...i dont know the details, but i did notice the turbo a bit red still...I keep this...

Well I'm a wuss, i too the car to Toyota, all they had to say was TPS, that was supposedly messing with my timing and everything else, so well see after i get the TPS put in if all is good. Wish me luck boys, this is when the money flys away.

Dont think that is the case, i figure id hear that blow...When i had the full 3in exhaust the car would not only backfire, but also blow out blue flames (very hot), i feel it is lean, i spent my entire saturday looking for a Fn fitting to hook up a Fuel preassure tester to my car, i have like a...
