Umm, so my car now exhibits codes 42 and 43, WTF? In a possibly unrelated situation, it is now hard to start in the morning, and gets horrible gas milage. BTW, its an 88, turbo 5 speed, almost completely stock, any help is appreciated.

Ok- What whould the effects, if any, on your car if you could cool you're intake charge air temp to say, 0 degrees F? Would you make massive power, would you throw a piston through your hood? Would it do anything harmful, or would it be awesome? Just curious, since my buddy raised the...

I am still having trouble starting the car when cold. It takes a few tries with the key, then fires and stays running. Things I've tried.... Cleaning the cold start injector checking the tps checking all throttle body wiring new plugs timing is dead on fuel injector cleaner No codes...

Hey, my heater blower quit working the other day. I have no idea why, here is some things I have checked. the reset fuse behind the drivers kick panel the climate control box checked for other related fuses but found nothing. What else can I check? Edit:Ok, I think it's the...

but I have a code 43... when I searched, I couldn't find any relavant info on what to do about this/the most common ways to fix, etc... so if anybody has any insight, help is needed. My other problem may be more severe....when performing moderate right hand cornering, my car shakes and...

stupid question: I have been struggling to time my car for 2 days now, and had to walk away due to excessive frustration and "get big hammer" type thoughts. So I am starting from scratch, because I obviously f*cked up somewhere. My question is this: How do you ensure that the engine is...

hey, new problems- took my car out for a test run, and under load, it stumbles/hesitates, and sounds like it pops out of the exhaust. the 30 mile drive I took it on didn't help at all, so.........any ideas. No vac leaks to speak of, I thought maybe boost leak, but I didn't see anything...

alright, everything's put together, (just swapped head, and cams) got it timed, all vacuum hoses are on, coil pack is grounded, but it it running rough. You can tell it fires on all six, but it has a erratic idle, as in it varies from 400 to 800 rpm, regularly. Do you guys have any ideas? I...

anybody know the firing order for the 7mgte? I had it written down, but it got "lost" during "cleaning" my coil packs are not marked. I thought it was 1-6-2-5-3-4 but I think Im wrong.

hey, just put the new head on, and I have a plug that needs a home. It is located coming from the main loom, at about #4 cylinder. Its is a 4 pronged female plug, of which 3 wires are used. Their colors are red, black, and yellow. The plug itself is kinda clear, or maybe was white at one...

Just like it says: Can I extend the lines that plumb into the mbc and put the mbc into the cabin, so I don't have to get out and pop the hood to adjust it and all that? I don't recall ever hearing anything on this subject, and a search turned up no useful info.

Just like the title states. I have an 88T and can obtain an 89 front end (bumper, lights, grills, etc) Do I need the bumper supports, as well? I searched but could find very little useful info, just "yes it can be done" kinda stuff. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx -X

My g/f drives a lifted 82 toyota (down for V-8 transplant) and now her and I are sharing my 88T. We are cruising around in my small, boring town saturday night, just kinda checking everything out. So we are slowing down for a red light, and we hear this horrible popping, like a million...

So I've got this AiReasearch To4 (no "B" or "E" stamp) with 60 A/R stamped in the housing sitting in my garage. I am told after inspection that this is a turbo in good shape. (Minimal shaft play) However, I know next to nothing about it. So how good is it? As in: good enough for 400 rwhp...

My car won't turn over- as in, I have ignition power, but when I turn the key to the start position, nothing happens. No clicking, no nothing. When Im under the car, and my girl tries, I get no movement from the starter. This happened all of a sudden, just maybe 2 hours after I had driven it...

#1 Car is running very rich. Maybe o2 sensor. Local parts stores only have 1 wire replacements, mine has 3 wires. (it's an 88 turbo) Any suggestions aside from the dealer? #2 If I can't find one, how to splice a one wire into a 3 wire system (or if it's even possible) Thanks...

Hey guys, this is Xtreme's girlfriend and i have never written on here so bare with me. I'm supposed to be checking his post for him on the backfiring thing, but i can't find it. So He put that Zylean (sp) stuff in the tank to clean the fuel injectors and now it is running really rich and...

My car backfires under deceleration. I cannot figure out why. First: No codes, had a code 52, which has been cleared. The car smells like it runs rich, so I put a multi meter on vf and e1, at idle, it shows 0.17? I had heard that you want to see 2.5v or somewhere around there. I just...

Hey everyone. Got my supra started yesterday, but I had a dead cylinder. No compression. Figured out that #2 intake valved were too tight, as well as one of #2 exhaust valves. That'll do it. so I checked the rest, and discovered that some were too loose. I thought I may have mixed up some...
