Ok so I'm still working on finding this elusive leak on my car. I assumed the turbo could be a possibility and it could still be likely since when I took off the IC today it had some oil in it. The thing is I want to know if there is a definitive way to identify a turbo leak while the turbo is...

Is there anywhere else I can find the hose that goes from the crankcase to the valve covers other than Toyota? The one right behind the alternator that goes from the block to the valve covers. $35 for a hose is a bit steep.

Ok my friend and I tried hooking up the safc yesterday on my 87 7mgte and I can't get anything to show up on the display. We soldered everything except for the air flow readings which are on male/female connectors. Everything shows that the safc is getting power but nothing shows up on the...

Just curious about what kind of connectors everyone uses for their safc, turbo timer etc... I don't want to hack into my wiring harness and I know there are some connectors that go around the wires that will facilitate the connection. So I just wanna know how they've been working for you and...

As of right now I'm just looking for some more suggestions on what to check. I have an oil leak but I'm having trouble locating it. Someone suggested an exhaust cam seal so I haven't gotten to that just yet. The leak only seems to show up when I'm out driving the car, so at idle I can't get...

Where would I find one of these? http://v8mr2.com/page97.asp I want to lap the head myself when I do my HG

Ok so I know that means I'm burning oilbut it just seems strange. Well let me start at the beginning. So I kept finding a slight bit of oil on the intake of my turbo, maybe a drop or two so I figured I was getting blowby from the PCV. Well I vent the crankcase to the ground from a hose until...

Ok so for some reason I always have an oil leak coming from my passenger side engine bay. It's a small leak but it's always there. The thing is when I drive the oil hits my fan and sprays it only on the passenger side. So tracing it is almost impossible at this point. I've been replacing things...

Ok I couldn't find a clear answer when I searched. But are the Clevite 77 bearings the same ones they stock normally at most auto parts stores or only special order from certain places. I ask cuz I can get them for about half price at napa( hookup) instead of going to toyota. So figured I'd...

Ok so first I replaced the wiring harness with another, not brand new but in much better condition than my last. I took the throttle off and set it using a digital multimeter so the code 41 I was getting has not come back yet. So I am now trying to set the timing correctly. I checked the...

Well I was happily on my way to class today, the car was driving fine then all of a sudden the car dies. I can still hear the engine revving as I'm slowing down So I pull over and the car cranks but won't turn over. So I figure my cps wiring is messing with me again (which is why I was looking...

http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/at/AT_046.html On this page there is a speed sensor for ABS, and on the inside the sensor rotor. I'm trying to find out how I get that piece off or if I can or if I can run the car without it. Thanks for any help

Does anyone know which line coming from the tranny hooks up to the right or left line on the radiator. P.O.V. would be looking at the car from the front please specify from that view. I just can't remember if one flows out and one in or if it doesn't matter(which I thought it did) thanks

Now I was pretty sure I set my tps correctly. I set it on the throttle body and touched the ohmmeter to the bottom two tabs and waited for the needle to jump and set it at that point. Now my car idles too low and dies sometimes and backfires every once in a while probaly once or twice every half...

Ok I've been trying to figure out what's up wiht my timing because it never seems to stay perfect for more than two weeks. I was looking at the tsrm and it say the cam nose should be pointing up at TDC. Mine does not but the timing marks are lined up with the notches when I check this. Is this...

Ok I'm helping my brother replace his tranny and we found that one of the wires from a connector had been clipped so what I'm trying to find out is, does anyone know what this clip controls? The tranny would work great sometimes and then act like it was in the wrong gear at other times, anyways...

I'm trying to replace the wussy stock horn and I can't get it to stay quiet and honk when I press the horn. I have one wire that is yellow with a blue stripe and another that is a white-ish color. Do I need them both connected or do I cover one and ground the other? I am kinda lost and my wiring...

Ok so it seems somehow the last two ports on one of my cars head were stripped. Now I'm trying to see if I can retap it. I don't believe getting another m12x1.25 tap will actually make any difference the closet size available is m12x1.5 but i will have to drill a hole 31/64 so I can use the...

I have an 87 turbo and clutch operates fine until the rpms get around 4500+ then the pedal will stick sometimes it comes back up verrrrrry slowly other times not at all. I'll pull it out and afterwards it will act fine. It seems also that when I try to shift when the pedal is in it will not go...

Does anyone know what the threading for the Oil Pressure sender is? I'm working on a 1/2 na-t and I'm sorting out the turbo drain issues. I need to find fittings to make the line for the drain big enough to accomodate the oil flow. Thanks
