    Oil filter o ring

    It appears that this is still available from US Toyota dealers parts counters for about $6. I just used a smear of Permatex ultra black silicon on top of the old gasket with no leaks.

    Oil filter o ring

    Here's the actual part number of what you're looking for 96732-31070. It's the large O-ring that goes between the filter bracket and the block. What I did in a pinch was to use a thin smear of Permatex ultra black silicone on top of the old gasket. Here's a Japan parts website with the...

    Clutch not engaging

    Put a little dab of hi temp bearing grease where the tip of the plunger contacts the fork. You could also pull the fork out and grease its points as described in the manual. The fork is held in lightly by spring tension. Use a flare nut wrench if possible, when disconnecting / connecting the...

    Clutch not engaging

    Slightly open the bleeder nut when the pedal is up. Push the pedal to the floor. Close the bleeder nut then raise the pedal back up and repeat until no bubbles are present in the hose and the fluid color is clear. Its the same procedure for brakes and clutch. Always be careful not to run dry at...

    Clutch not engaging

    If the clutch master cylinder is leaking internally you should see fluid draining out the back into the driver's compartment. Try bleeding the system at the slave cylinder with fresh fluid. I like Valvoline synthetic DOT 3 & 4. Get a one-man check valve bleeder, or attach a tight fitting...

    MK3 carrier replacement

    Here's a photo from my 1987 service manual showing the little notches in the bearing facing to the rear of the car. In the online 1990 manual this is not as clear, since they don't circle it. Also be aware that the drive shaft needs to be "in phase" to minimize vibration. Here's a photo from...

    Please explain GTE oil orifice on block? Pictures added.

    The person on the other Supra Forum gave the correct answer M12 x 1.25. His link to Advance Auto Parts came back as an oil drain plug, which will work. Use a copper washer or permatex ultra-black silicone to seal it. The torque spec for the banjo bolt of the turbo oil line is 25 foot-pounds. The...

    Turbo oil drain port needs to be blocked off, need suggestions.

    If you still have your old block, borrow the block off plate that's under the oil filter. Test fit the one you have that I saw in your other posting. Otherwise, you should be able to cook up a block off plate cutting one from aluminum. Make a paper template that fits or get the gasket...

    Please explain GTE oil orifice on block? Pictures added.

    This is the oil pressure feed for the turbo. It's drilled directly into the oil pressure galley that feeds the entire engine. This is where the banjo connects that you see in your photo to the right. The return drain is on the other side of the oil filter. That connects to the block and drains...

    Difficulty getting caster close L and R

    The urethane bushing kit should have come with silicone grease to minimize squeaking. I didn't have to use shims with the energy suspension bushing kit. Well done that you got this taken care of. Now you can focus on the other things, which there always will be. :)

    Help! Supra doesn't run right

    I see you have the rare super monitor in place of a standard clock. About one in 10 cars had this option before it was discontinued after 88. The option cost was $250. I found one on eBay and retrofitted my 1987, since the plugs for the harness were there by default. I usually leave it on...

    Difficulty getting caster close L and R

    With enough force, it may pop the JB weld away. Any reinforcement shouldn't be necessary, unless there is a problem causing the metal box to bend. A bolt rusted to the metal sleeve inside the rubber bushing would do that. You can try an exercise the bolt by jacking up that wheel and loosening...

    R154 Tranny noise

    New member paul22 It's pointless to reply to a thread from 2017. Whatever happened, they have solved it by now.

    Crank pulley broke!!!

    Thanks for doing that. I thought this was for a 7M pulley, my mistake.

    Crank pulley broke!!!

    Put the pulley back together to see if it still has enough reach from the front without touching the side extension. It may require cutting the rubber where it tore.

    Crank pulley broke!!!

    So you're saying the Amazon tool you ordered, in the link provided, fit properly? The bolts were long enough and had the correct thread dimensions, etc. If that's the case, I'm going to get one as well, because doing it the backyard way does stress the crankshaft a bit as trofimovich posted...
