    Should I jump on this? 91 targa turbo, about 80k original miles

    Could also be a bad turbo. I had light smoke recently and pulled my turbo and sure nuff my seals are bad leaking oil into my turbine housing and my engine checked out fine. But yeah I agree do more test go to autozone or any parts store buy a carbon tester, for the blown head gasket. Looks kinda...

    How would I go about storing a Supra for an extended period of time?

    That's exactly right All fluids are engineered and only last so long for instance. The water and coolant are mixed together 50/50 but over time just sitting the two different fluids will start to separate from each other water on bottom and coolant will raise to the top. I mean you're gonna...

    How would I go about storing a Supra for an extended period of time?

    My supra sat for 2.5 years before I had money to start my project and I went with the Toyota supra manual. Like Ij said put it on jack stands but I put mine on the frame not the control arms and took off the tire and drain ALL fluids and don't set the ebrake. Of course keep brake fluid. I didn't...

    7mgte swap question

    Yeah take a pic. If you have the gray plugs on your ecu, which you should, it isn't gonna be the correct ecu or engine harness for the yellow plugs ecu that belonged in that chassis. But ten again if your engine fired right up I wouldn't worry about it

    Help please r154 swap with mt ecu and harness into 88 turbo auto no fuel?

    Just an update. I still could not find the wire and or wired I was missing on my m/t harness. So I went ahead with the 12v circuit with a relay used ignition switch to turn it on. Anyways it fired right up and now my supra, that hasn't ran in 3 years, is up and running!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Help please r154 swap with mt ecu and harness into 88 turbo auto no fuel?

    Thanks for the info but ive done all these tests before and nothing. Not even when I use my jumper. I was reading another forum a long time ago and this guy said its useless to use the manual trans ecu and harness cause it's missing one or two wire to the open relay for the fuel pump. So what...

    kingkoroncai 88 turbo supra black

    Yes well he didn't write .050 he wrote .50 in which case, and I'm just assuming, he meant .50mm over cause .050 would be inches. So good point you have there and makes me want to ask. Is it mm or inches over lol?

    Help please r154 swap with mt ecu and harness into 88 turbo auto no fuel?

    Since no one is giving me any info on this wiring issue I have decided to do a 12v relay and fuse set up and splice into my ignition switch for turning the pump on. So my new question before I do this tomorrow is... Since I will not be using the ecu for the pump and the ecu won't know if it's...

    7mgte troubles

    Install spring towards block and there should be a little hole on the wide flat part of the thermostat and that hole ALWAYS faces upward ;) to allow the air bubbles to be bleed out. Did you check your timing, cams and crank at tdc ( top dead center) make sure that they are aligning correctly.

    Need help with engine damage (pics)

    Maybe not a serious crank walk but extra lateral movement which will cause a harsh vibration. It's a long shot but thought I'd throw it out there.
