So I finally got tired of waiting on my parents to buy me a new car and instead got my Supra towed to my job and my boss and I took car of a few things to get it running. It originally went in to get the brakes serviced, and the mechanic wanted some god awful amount of money to fix it. So, we put a new master brake cylinder on, which the mechanic said was bad and we suspected was the culprit, new discs up front and resurfaced in the rear, new pads all around, bled the system with completely new brake fluid and now it's sensitive again and actually works!
Now on to the problems I still have. Now, the only thing I really got of a stupid $78 diagnostic fee was that the mechanic somehow found a bunch of sensors unplugged, don't ask I have no idea, and plugged them in so it runs a lot better than when I put it in. It has been sitting dead still for almost 10 months now. I got a new battery in it and found out that my speedometer cable is now completely broken. It is putting out error codes 41, 42, and 51. I think 42 is explained by the lack of working speedo. I think I have a faulty TPS.
Now to where I have a question. It seems to idle perfectly at 750 when it starts. When it does start though its rough, but after 30-45 seconds it levels out. After I actually drive it for more than a few minutes it begins to idle all over the place from 1100 to 400. Also, as you slowly increase the rpms it runs smooth then at about 2800-3300 it beings to start misfiring or something like that, basically just shakes a lot and doesn't run well at all, and once you come off the gas it kinda just falls and idles where ever it pleases. If you keep increasing rpms then it will eventually even back out again around 4000.
If I am driving in gear it is very slow under 3700-4000ish range, but maybe it could be because I've been driving a 06 Ram w/ HEMI for 10 months and that thing has more than enough power across the band, but once I get to that range it takes off and I can feel power up to the redline. What could be causing this? A faulty TPS or something more in-depth.
Also, any information on where to cheaply obtain parts, since my list of places was lost with my last laptop, would be greatly appreciated! I need to buy a new steering rack or at least a boot. Is there a way to know if the control arms are good or not? Also I attached a picture from the invoice with the list of things broken. The oil leak is in the read right below valve gaskets, have no idea what it could be, but I've just been checking the oil level. Thanks in advance for any advice yall can give.
