Fixed! Forgot to mention I thought the fuel pump was bad because I got home on E and then let it sit. I walked to the gas station and bought a gallon, and that's when I though I had the fuel pump problem. But.... Sprayed some starter fluid, nothing. Checking for spark at the distributor and...

When I crank it, the tac only moves very slightly, like 50 rpm max. What kind of ignition problem does this indicate? Also, if someone know's where the drawing of all the ground locations is that would be good to check. I'm gonna buy some starter fluid and spray that boy in the intake, see...

So my car won't start after sitting for 1 day. Running fine before, '88 Turbo. It turns over fine and throws no codes. All the fuses seem to be good. I did the B+ to Fp jumper thing per: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=71 but my B+ is only reading 0.27V... So...

I had TPS problems, adjusting that thing is a b-yatch. I didn't notice any fuel draining...anymore than normal...but my idle was high, around 1200. Other than that the only other problem was the TPS code. She ran just fine on highway and city driving tho. Since I adjusted it to spec the idle is...

Follow up: I looked under there and sure enough the exhaust is about 1/4" from the structural member where the mount attaches. I can move the exhaust by hand and it will hit up against this part. Now just driving down the road it sounds like it might be hitting a little. That's 3" exhaust for...

Interesting you say that...I just had a custom DP fabbed and put on and there's no more bracket or flex. So i think we have a winner! (I really need to update my profile i know...) question is, what do I do now? Try to cobble up some bracket? I still don't really see how that DP is swinging...

Thanks. So i tried revving it and there's no harsh vibes. engine mounts are OK then? Any other ideas what's wrong? i could just live with it, no more donuts ...:cry:

First off I've got an '88 with the original mounts (they look square). So I'm thinking they're trashed by now. I hear a grinding vibration coming from the engine area when I turn hard to the left while giving it some uhmf...sometimes when I turn to the right too but it doesn't seem as bad. I...

yeah that's why i thought nitrous would be sweet. I heard from a workmate about VNG turbos, those are the latest and sound pretty cool. I may look for one of those. There's just so many options...and those darn nuts on the 3 bolt flange downpipe are a beeyatch to take off.

thanks for your help guys. I was looking at Driftmotion posts and i guess they can rebuild your turbo with some powerful stuff, and it'll bolt right on. i'm thinkin that is exactly what i need. i pm'd big arron like 10 days ago, no reply...guess he's got better things to do. i'm still looking.

yeah! and maybe i could add a 50 shot of nos to get that big wheel spinning! I don't know what kind of crazy hardware you'd need to bolt up one of them big guys. thanks for the ideas! i was thinking something a little quicker to install. That eBay one still looks sweet.

So I'm pretty sure turbo's fried. It still boosts, but not very well...I've got ~2mm shaft play and some weird sounds too (pops and squeals) but I can get 8 lbs. I prolly shouldn't even run it...but ya know. I was thinking of an upgrade, maybe a new exh manifold and downpipe too. Where's a...

jet, you are the man! you've helped me a lot and you're funny as hell. Checked the resistance of afm at three temps (room, freezing, below freezing), checks out ok to the TSRM. It looks pretty clean too. Could there be some other problem with the afm? After checking out the TPS, I think...

Thanks. I'll check the tps and afm out and try to adjust em. do you think the non-boost problem could be electrically related. I mean, would the ecu disable boost for some reason since the tps and afm are goofed? it worked great until i got an oil change and put it 10-w40, seems to have...

hello to all of you. this is my 1st post but i've been readin for a little while. some of u guys are frikken hillarious! you've been very helpful too. i've had her running for 3 months or so, thanks for that, but stuff keeps poppin up... like currently, i'm havin the same problem as above...
