Ok I'm still new somewhat to the site and now have serious problems. I had a shop replace my engine with a JDM engine to drive around until I have a garage where i can build a new one from top to bottom. They have seriously screwed up my car. It's still at the shop and they do not know what to do and asked if i knew anything. So here it is. When you start it up it revs up to 2000 rpms and stays there. It has a little stumble as its idling there. Then when you hit the gas, it just about dies but recovers. They haven't drove because of that so I don't know what else could be wrong. I'm sure it's vacuum line problems for one because they said they had problems with that. What exactly could be wrong other than that? I know the BVSV vacuum lines going into the t-housing have been broke off. Could that make most of the problem? Thanks for any help. I am totally getting ticked off with them. They have had it for 4 weeks now and its driving me crazy. I will never let anyone touch it again after this disaster.

You will need to fix the vacuum line going to the BVSV.
Also check that there are no air leaks.

Did you check your error codes?

Cheers,

Who's working on your car...Gomer and Goober Pyle?

If they can't figure out how to trouble shoot basic problems, and are asking you if you know anything about Supras, then you need to call a towtruck, and get your car the hell out of there.

You can always sue them later.

Their toyota expert got sick after he dismantled it and they are just trying to figure it out from there. Right now there are no codes from what they told me, but who knows. I'm going show them some pics of what it should look like and hopefully they get a clue.

Also I heard them talking about taking to someone else and I really hope they do send to someone who knows what they are doing.

Also none of my t house sensors seem to be working. No temp gauge, the cold start is not working right and the a/c is not working.

I think you people check to see who does work for 19.95 an hour or something, and then go there.

Did they even check to see that engine timing is correct on the used engine that was installed?
