Ok, so maybe this is a stupid question, but is it possible to have an oil pressure that is Too High?
I shimmed my Oil Pump and make about 12-14psi at idle and above 75-80 when reving above 3500 RPM.
I know this because I have blown 3 mechanical Oil Press gauges.
The only reason I bring...
Hello!
I have installed a Mechanical Oil Pressure Gauge on the line coming from my sandwich plate to my remote oil filter.
It doesnt quite jive with the stock Toyota Pickup gauge (7MGTE is in a 1990 Pickup) and the aftermarket gauge goes over 80PSI (gauge max) when I rev past 3800rpm...

Ok So
Lex AFM, 550cc INJ, Walbro 255lph Fuel is at 35psi.
I Try to rev the car in neutral and at 2700rpm my wideband shows it leaning out in spikes and it wont rev higher. The ECU tests fine (5V on KS and VC when IGN on and 4V when running on KS). I Put my SAFC on it to see it it sees any...
Ok. I am Getting MASSIVE amounts of coolant in my oil. So much that my oil system is getting extra pressure from my coolant circuit.
So I need to thing of the possible Entry Points of coolant into the lubrication system.

-Turbo
-Cracked Block/Head
-?
SIDE NOTE:
I Fucked up the "Zoo loo" Head mod and put the holes at the BACK of the Head instead of the front.
This is the "Zoo loo" Mod
I have tapped and plugged the holes with set screws that I put some black FIPG on the threads so hopefully that will fix that part.
Ok, first off, let me admit my embarrassment for not knowing the answer to this question. Being an Electrical Engineer I should know these things.
So I just got my set of RC 550cc injectors and pigtails (from myfst89turbo on this forum. Great seller) and I was wondering...
Do injectors...
Ok, I recently (and i mean the motor has not even been started or broken in due to a spark issue) built my 7MGTE motor and put it in a 1990 Pickup
Build Specs:
-Titan 1.2mm MHG
-ARP Studs
-ARP mains
-JE pistons
-PNP Head with ZooLoo mod
Stock turbo
I went to put a magnetic drain...
Ok I started this thread on *another forum* and wanted to see if SM's Finest had any input.
Ok, So I am currently building a 7MGTE that I would like to use in a 4x4 truck for off road fun.
So instead of going for big numbers High RPM I will be shooting for low end torque.
I know the 7M...
Have always loved MK3's just picked one up. Body is rusted but motor/drive train is still solid.
