oil

I went to change my spark plugs today and there was a decent amount of oil is the spark plug valley. I am going to clean up the oil prior to removing the plugs but was wondering what I can do to prevent this. I read a bunch of threads on this and felt like half of what I read was not correct...

Hey guys, I just started to get my 91 turbo back up and running and I noticed after I changed the oil pressure sender that my Oil pressure gauge is pegged as soon as the car gets started. I am trying to figure out the issue, but my Haynes manual doesn't mention this at all and all of my...

I have an 89 turbo 5speed. I am currently losing power steering fluid and it looks like it is leaking right at the gear housing where the intermediate shaft connects. My oil pan also appears to be leaking. First I was wondering if it is possible to replace the oil pan gasket without pulling...

Hi all! I just dropped off my 7M at the machine shop, with a complete list of tolerances from the TSRM. I've read most of the guides on here regarding machining and rebuilding these things, so I brought it to the machinist's attention that I want to build the engine "tight". But then I got to...

I'm new to the supra game I just bought this 89 7mgte a couple months ago from an older man probably in his 50s he says there's a 3 year old jasper engine in it and a 1 year old ct26 everything looks fresh and it ran good. Then I take it home and the first time I lay into the pedal the radiator...

Have done some searching and reading but I'm still scratching my head. Hope this is not a terribly silly question but... When does the factory oil system start to reach its limits? I have a mildy built 7M (rebuilt head, probes, eagle rods, new bearings etc) but I did not shim my new oil pump...

just rebuilt my 7m, and the first time i drove it my turbo seized from having no oil. i took the turbo off and i was thinking that it was just going to be a clogged feed line, when i tryed cranking no oil came out. someone said i might have not cranked it enough idk. If you have any ideas as...

hy guys the othe day i was changing the valve cover gasket when i notice that inside the spark plugs hole was a lot of oil. I managed to get most of it out with some paper towel but there still some inside. so my question is , what the easiest way to get that completely clean? and is that going...

Ok Solved all my recent problems due to BLOWN TURBO Gt35 t4 Godspeed turbo. I got a replacement, and used the correct oil feed restriction flange this time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGzEWbWvMV8 Now I have an oil leak, but its not coming from the turbo oil seals, not from the feed line...

does anyone know if u have to remove the tranny to reseal the oil pan, it looks like u may have to in order to get to the rear bolts of the pan or do u just remove the inspection cover??

Another day another problem, I still love 'er though :p My car has developed a burning oil problem ever since I finished my headgasket job. So first I had the head cleaned up and shaved at a machine shop and also got them to install new valve stem seals that I ordered from driftmotion. One of...

Hey supra owners, so yall that have put a hx40 or hy35 or hx35 where did you find fittings to supply oil and return oil for the turbo. i assume the ebay t3 stuff does not work on them? what sort of oil restricter is necessary? and 10an is the return size i have and 4an for feed.

I was changing my valve cover gaskets and bolts today, and came across two things. I did search For red arrow, what the hell is that for? Where does it go? That was from the previous owner. There's more things plugged up like that too. Now for the green arrow pointing to that hose...
