Lol, My factory headgasket lasted just shy of 140,000 miles...

Ofcourse, Sorry I forgot to note that in the first post, no codes are present... Any ideas guys? Could it be my MAF even though there are no error codes?

I had the same issue a few years back, sure enough it was the back of one of the valve covers leaking on mine. Definitly invest in some better hardware when you reinstall the valve covers, I went with stainless steel allen head bolts. they make retorquing much easier as you can use a long allen...

While driving my '87 Supra which has a 7MGE and a 5spd I will notice what appears to be a miss (engine sputters, tach needle flutters). I've tried to narrow down the problem and have replaced the Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, etc. this past week. The distributor and TPS, EGR valve...

Hey everyone, Figures that everytime I spend some money and do something nice for the car she acts up. I just got finished doing the brakes all around on my '87 Supra yesterday only to be woken up at 2:30 this morning by the sound of the factory alarm going off, I ran outside in my underwear...

Thanks guys, i put a brand new Tps on the engine and it seems to have fixed the idling issues but i'm still having a problem with the engine kind of cutting out or losing power between 2 and 3 thousand rpm under load. almost as if it were hitting some sort of fuel cut? could this just mean i...

Check Suprasport.com for the energy suspension bushing kits, they just started to carry them maybe a month ago. Also, dont make the same mistake I did... A replacement carrier bearing for the driveshaft is rather expensive and that two piece shaft is a piece of garbage anyway ( I twisted two of...

Hey Man!! Sure thing, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.. been so busy between work and the end of the semester. I'll get the part #s posted up for you tommorow on my lunch break! we sure can get everything for that bottom end, I'll get info on that for you also..

Hey man, I have put almost 40,000 miles on my engine after the dreaded BHG happened to my 7mge three years ago. I went ahead and used the Felpro permatorque gasket set i ordered through my company(Autozone). the set ran just under 100 bucks if i remember correctly and came with everything...

Hey Guys, I'm working on a 1987 N/A 5spd transmission car. I have put almost 40 thousand miles on the car since rebuilding the engine after it blew the headgasket at 121,000 with no problems what so ever...untill now... Whats happening is that the car would not idle any lower than 1,100 rpm. I...

hahahaha....thats great, some ass in our senior parking lot at school has a grand am with a primer black body kit and the pep boys fart can on it, he blew one of his cv axles trying to burnout leaving school the other day, lol.....when i saw it i pulled infront of him and showed him what a real...

haha yeah man...i know where that is, i sent you an email back, sorry it took so long...i've been busy with some DMV related issues....lol, something about Supra's, speeding tickets and possible 30 day license suspensions......

alright, now i'm pretty thoroughly pissed....i put on a new TPS, calibrated it per the TSRM and now the car will not idle at all, it was pulling a code 41 so i cleared it, after putting the 15A EFI fuse back in and starting the car it would just not idle for anything, i'm out of ideas....

i found a good junkyard near the shop i work at that has about 6 mk3 and maybe 2 Mk2 supras so next time i'm down there i'm going to grab a couple sensors....the guys over there have been great to me, they let me STRIP a 1987 turbo of everything i could take off of it for 300 bucks, lol....

Hmmmm...good call, i'll attempt to calibrate it, but i cant see how the calibration would be fine for 2 years after i rebuilt the engine and then just take a crap, it seemed logical that it was the fact i reused a 20 year old sensor....from what i hear quite a few people have been having the...

Yeah....replaced all the vacuum hoses not even a month ago....checked again for leaks, found nothing.....this is killing me, i checked my MAF,TPS,ISC with an ohm meter and the only thing i got a shady ready on was the TPS, i have a feeling it might not be sending a false signal to my ECU telling...

thanks for the info CRE, i'll try to get around to testing them out this weekend....anyone else have any ideas?

Hey, i have a1987 N/A...it recently started to bounce between about 500 and 700rpm after it gets off of high idle, sounds almost like it has a set of high lift cams in it, also...it seems to smell like its running rich at idle....i pulled off and cleaned the ISC and tested it, checked out...
