the bulb is blown on the engine light so i guess it looks i gotta fix that now, ill get back to you when its fixed. just one more thing to replace, this little project is turning into hell

ok that makes sense why i cant find a hook up for it but mines a 5spd. and i put the main ground from the battery on the top of the intake, would that keep it from starting? its a ground so why would it matter where it was put as long as its on the motor?

ok i was just browsing ebay and i found out that green injectors are 89-92 and the yellow are 86-88. does this mean my 87 had a newer 7m swapped in? and if so will the 86-88 injectors work with the 89-92 setup?

ok the timing is on and still no start. i havent changed the injectors yet cause thats gonna take awhile. but i did notice a few things though, maybe someone can help, 1st is that the in the fuse box under the hood the MAIN relay gots warm/hot. could this be something to look into or that...

also found something else kind of strange on the motor, when installing the new egr it has 2 lines that run to the TB. well theres no where for them to go on my TB. i just capped them off for now till i can figure out what to do with them. any ideas on wtf that means?

no i ran out of daylight before i could get into finding the problem, wont have another dayoff to mess with it till wensday. the timing was gonna be the second thing i checked since i had to replace the distributor, but i had #1 at TDC when i put it in. but it doesnt take much to mess things up...

well i finally got the car back together and no start, crap. im about to start browsing other threads for the possible reason. and no i havent pulled any "un-needed" parts off yet, the car is together the way its supposed to be. it will start with starting fluid so im thinkin no gas, but its...

ok thanks, that makes alittle more sense. but can i just hook the d side hose up to the head and the p side hose to the exhaust side to get the hose off the top of the motor? i would see if its a pipe and can be removed, but apparently everything is supposed to be there for a reason and im tired...

and ive noticed something strange on my 7m that maybe someone can shine some light on, i was following an online diagram i got off one of the forums and putting the new coolant hoses on, and when i got to the heater hoses it says that the driver side heater core hose is supposed to connect under...

autozone wants almost 400 for all the egr parts, but i called a few salvage yards and im going in the morning to get it for 50, but that yard is over an hour away, these cars may be common where most of you guys live but i live way out in bfe, so most of what i buy has to be new cause most of...

ya everything ive read and heard about the 7m says its a good reliable motor with decent potential. but this is no where near my first sports car, but it is my first import sports car. my wife had a sc300 and i liked it, thats why i chose a supra and not a z or rx.

i do understand whats its for, ive already read over the egr section in my repair book and i know it important and i need it, but i dont know if this motor is will run, the car sat under a tree without a hood for almost a year and half, im not looking for performance right now, i just want to...

ok im almost done reinstalling this 7m and ive hit a bump, the egr system is gone. the whole piece that hooks from the head to the intake is gone. can i bypass it for now or am i gonna have to spend the money on a new one?

well im having to put this car back together from scratch, and i dont want to waste time and money fixing and adding stock parts and accessories onto a car that i plan on taken the motor back out of anyway. but if i get this car back on the road then i could sell the motor and 5spd for more if i...

i know you get some oil in you tb and in the intake, but its not slinging out as much oil as these other guys are saying. so wouldnt running valve breathers help your motor run better by helping keep your tb and intake cleaner? or do 7m motors build up that much pressure its better and safer to...
