Welcome to SM.

Sweet that you're getting a Supra for free. So the car doesn't start at all?

This is your first post, so I'll tell you that we really love punctuation and complete sentences. I'm not being a prick, just letting you know.

As far as the car starting, does it turn over? Is it getting fuel? Is it getting spark? Have you checked the codes? Make sure it's got oil in it. Here's how you check the codes in case you didn't know.

Not without being told. Sometimes one will come on here and surprise me, but most of the time it's......."Yo YO YO, check out my new whip dogs it's got one of them thar turbos on it yo and the chicks are all up on my shit cause they be digging my ride yo just thought id make a post before the puter deletes my name ill post pictures later holler at you boy"

No offense to you Matt, but this is really how most people start their introduction threads.

Agreed. It has nothing to do with "but I don't post on the intarwebs often." I'm pretty sure that everyone has term papers to write, even in middle and high school.



Also: Nice daily driver.

Thanks!!!! K I got time to work on the car, ran the codes and there are none. but i think i found the problem no fuel pump sound, so i'm putting a walbro in tommorow. see if that fixes it

 

[matthunter1448]

k it is the fuel pump i think i need a new tank cause this one is really nasty

 

[suprahero]
