I'm working on a 87T for a guy. The car was brought to me with no plumbing done on the intake. I hooked up all the pipes and vacuum hoses, set the CPS properly, set the timing etc... The car fires right up every time and idles perfect. When i give it gas it seems to have slow response and chokes out around 3K cant tell if fuel or ignition is cutting out. All cylinders are firing under idle. I changed the oil and noticed there were about 9-10 Quarts in the engine "DOH" He said the CPS was changed a year ago but I dont know. Does this sound like a common problem? I am mre a 7MGE guy but this isnt completely foreign to me. Any help would be appreciated. BTW: I checked for codes and all I get is a speed sensor problem (probably from reving it.) and a #52 knock sensor signal.

I blame everything on the cps all the time. It might just be off 180 degrees, get a timing light and check for 10 degrees btdc in diagnostic mode.
My timing light just went out damnit. Cant get it to work. oh well. another symptom is black smoke coming out of the exhaust. i know its fuel just trying to narrow down why.
LOL i think every supra runs rich.But could be a boost leak or vacuum leak causing it or stuck injector.
