Ok. I got tired of looking without finding the problem. I sent it down to the local toyota dealer and had them take a look at it. They looked over most of the stuff I did and everything seemed fine. I had them do an injector service by bypassing the gas tank and cleaning them with some kind...

Ok. I'm still at a lose for what this exactly is. I reset the ECU and I'm no longer getting any codes. It's not the MAF sensor. I checked the coil packs and harness... that was good. Fuel pump is good with good pressure. I pulled the cam gear cover off and the belt is in great shape and it...

I'm actually gonna do the 5 speed swap here in about a week. I just got back from Iraq about a month ago and now they finally gave me some leave lol. So as soon as I hunt down and fix this problem with my car I'll take it to the shop on base and do the swap there.

Well I only unplugged the sensor temporarily to see if there was any change in the idle. There was no change in the idle. Shouldn't there have been some kind of change in the idle if the maf was functioning? I looked at all the intake pipes don't see any more leaks. I sprayed alot of carb...

Ok so I taped up the crack something fierce today. Put everything back on. Well car is still running like crap. However this time I went ahead and shorted the E1 and T1 terminal in the car and when it stalled it gave me two codes. This is the first time I've ever gotten any codes from it...

I pulled the accordian off a little while ago. Before I did that I started the car up. I unplugged the MAF and the idlle didn't really seem to change all that much. It seemed like it was idling about the same. I also rechecked for codes and there's still none. If it was the MAF wouldn't...

Yeah I was thinking about trying that. I'll give that a shot because I just now sprayed down all of the vacuum lines with carb cleaner and didn't see any change in the idle. If that fixes the problem then I'll just replace the accordian. I don't get why it was getting better as my tank neared...

My car has been idling funky for a little over a week. I'm not sure if this may have anything to do with it but it seems like it started after I filled the car up with gas. I put mid grade gas in the car. I was driving home from work and as I was pulling up to a stop sign the car would kind...

Yeah. I followed the link to the site to see the pix. That is nothing compared to just some of the training i've been a part of.

Well honestly I'm not surprised if the locals did that believing it'd work. Those people will believe anything you tell them just about. We used to tell them that our Oakley's were xray, that our GPS watches were lie detectors and that we could see into the future with our NVGs.

You sound like a young soldier. Is this your first deployment? Probably not a good idea to be posting stuff about you slaughtering animals over in Afghan. PETA is already all over the militarys ass about animal cruelty and such. Well I wish you luck over in Afghan. I don't miss that shit...

Thanks for the Info. The fluid in it was good the last time I checked it. I already bought a r154 and the stuff to do the swap so I say screw the a340 for now. Thanks :-D

I've noticed a hesitation when my car is shifting from 1st to 2nd gear while at WOT. The car will accelerate like normal and when it gets to the top of 1st gear you can hear it as if its about to shift. Then it just hesitates for a sec or so. If I keep the pedal to the floor when it goes to...

Sorry. I clicked the wrong link when I posted this. Meant to put this in the 7mgte section. I will repost in the correct section. Feel free to delete. Thanks. I've noticed a hesitation when my car is shifting from 1st to 2nd gear while at WOT. The car will accelerate like normal and...

My name is Steven. Recently moved from Tacoma, WA to El Paso, TX on a military PCS move. I own a 1987 turbo. I bought the car in stock condition but have since installed a K&N FIPK, divorced downpipe, titan motorsport 3" CAT, and Blitz Nur Spec R cat back. I've had the car for about a 1 1/2...
