    hesitation/stumble on acceleration

    full set of gaskets

    Where do you get the silicone valve stem seals indvidually (set of 24 without rest of seals)? I have only ever seen the ones that come in the kit. Is there a difference in using the silicone over the standard?

    Rear end differences?

    I think they are the same. I am not sure on the ratios but I believe the drive shaft attaches the same. Should be easy enough to find out.

    Electric Fans....are they worth it?

    if nothing else it cleans up the engine bay enough to work on. Gets old having to take on and off the fan.

    Stalling Supra

    Like they said get the codes posted up and do not buy any more parts. Rarely do you see a supra with serious fuel problems so it is probably something else that will be revealed in your engine codes.

    code 14 and 31 help

    Do the easy things first by thoroughly checking your igniter and afm. If they are not the problem I was getting this combo when my timing belt jumped time. In your case it definitely sounds like it is electrical.

    Check the suspension bushings in that area. My car does the same thing and it is because of the play in the bushings.

    Maybe problem with idle?

    check vac lines, check your tps, check to make sure the afm is connected. Also, sounds kind of dumb, but do you have gas?
