    egr vsv

    Hey guys, just a quick question. . .should the egr vsv NOT allow any air to pass through when the car is turned off? I was told that it should not but I am not sure. I was testing my system for any leaks and have found several small ones due to old hoses and bad old clamps. I noticed air is also...

    help with boost leak test

    So I did another pressure test and it seems as though air is leaking out around two injectors like crazy. . .I would imagine that I can just replace the o-rings and hopefully i'll have no more air leaking

    help with boost leak test

    If I pressurize the system (like I am doing) w/the car off should the vsv be closed. . .not allowing air to pass through to the egr system? I realize I have a vacuum leak that I will need to fix, but should the vsv be open and allowing air to pass through or not?

    help with boost leak test

    I made a boost leak tester today and hooked it to the turbo and went to pressurize the system, I blocked off all of the hoses that go to the accordian hose but needed to see if there are any other hoses that I need to block off or unhook in order to perform a test correctly. I hear air coming...

    idle problem after letting off gas

    OK, my car doesn't have tems but I jumpered the connector, turned the key on and I had a nonstop quick blink of the CEL. . .just kept going. Anyone got a clue on that? Also, I slowly depressed the throttle and somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 throttle I got a 51 code. So I guess I'm looking at...

    idle problem after letting off gas

    Hey, I posted a while back about a problem I had w/my supra. . .basically if I am driving down the street or rev the car anything above about 2k RPMs and then just let off the gas the car will die.

    fuel cut?

    You in Louisville? Are you the guy I talked to on AIM a while back? It's fuel cut that I am hitting though, the car totally cuts out for a second and the CEL does come on for about 5 seconds and goes back off. I tried adjusting my AFM just to see if that would help. It did just a little bit but...

    fuel cut?

    I ordered some t-bolt clamps, I'm gonna leave everything how it is and just not drive it too hard until I get them in and see how that goes because the old school clamps suck. If that doesn't fix it, I'll adjust the afm screw and see how that goes. hopefully I'll get it all figured out soon

    fuel cut?

    No CEL, I just got done checking all of the couplers and everything and they seem fine the only one i didn't check is the one coming directly off of the turbo because that ones pretty tough to get to, lol. . .that could be it though. I did find one clamp that was a bit loose and tightened it up...
