    Emergency HELP! Stuck in Lewisville! Car started messing up on my trip from Texarkana

    Oil is clear and coolant looks good. There is some kind of liquid coming from the wastegate. I cant tell if the fluid is carbon colored coolant or an oil mixture??? UPDATE: Let the car cool. then tried to start. Gave off a tiny bit of smoke this time, but the idle was back perfect with...

    Emergency HELP! Stuck in Lewisville! Car started messing up on my trip from Texarkana

    So, I was cruisin along today no issues or hard driving. I came to a complete stop, and the car started idling a little rough. I checked all guages, temp, and oil. Everything looked find. I took off from the stop, and got a bogged down take off. It seemed to level off around 3000rpms in...

    Where are the people from Texas?

    Lol, that's because it's almost Arkansas!!! I refer to it as the sink hole. Texarkana is the center point of traveling between Dallas, Austin, Houston, Shreveport, Little Rock, and Oklahoma City....thus the sinkhole! Oh well, maybe one day I'll get away from here. I make regular runs to...

    Where are the people from Texas?

    Yes, that's my baby. She's got a 10 footer paint job, but that's the last thing I'll worry about. I picked her up a year and half ago from a toyota shop worker. Said he had never taken it over 90 mph, no races, nothing. The way it runs and the almost perfect interior(factory) I believe him...

    Where are the people from Texas?

    Heh, you feel lonely?!? I'm in Texarkana, there are two mk3s in town. I own one, and my friend has the other(that hasn't run in 4 years). I'd like to attend meets, but most of them are halfway across texas.

    Oil Pressure drops :(

    Don't fret about the oil pressure though. I've had my 87' for a year and a half now. It does the same kind of oil reading, even a little worse in this Texas heat(idling around 15-18psi). I've put 6392 miles on her:aigo:, and she still runs like a champ. Just don't let one of these shops put...

    headlight switch malfunction????

    I've never heard of this happening before, but go figure it would to me. My headlight switch made a loud "pop", at which point the outter piece(the blinker switch) became free moving(360 degrees). It also moved about 2mm away from the stationary part of the switch. All lights still work, but...

    Low oil pressure? Turbo?

    I experience the same symptoms. Let me ask you this. Pay attention to your oil pressure and cut your a/c on full blast. Notice a more than 5 psi decline?

    How hard is it to rebuild your own turbo ????

    Sounds good, thanks for the input. I am on a little bit of a budget, but who isn't right? I've just got to find a decent replacement for a good price, so I can also afford the ddp I've been dreaming of.
