    Alternator Question, Need help fast!

    All I'm saying is that you need to verify that the 3 regulator wires go where they should, color aside. Check for continuity from the alternator to the appropriate fuses. You put a Soarer set in a Supra, maybe you mixed up a couple of those wires when splicing into the Supra? In my case I...

    Alternator Question, Need help fast!

    Shouldn't get as low as 13V, especially not below that. If it's running that low it sounds like the alternator/regulator may be bad. Even with a weak battery, the alt should overcome that while it's running and show good voltage. Check the 3 regulator wires for continuity or shorts (or like in...

    did a compression test this weekend

    Interesting... I saw/read a link Tissimo posted earlier this week about that Motoman break-in. Interesting read. Obviously you've got a really good seal, thx for sharing.

    Alternator Question, Need help fast!

    I assume that's one of the digrams I gave you... Of the whole damn set of diagrams this was the only discrepancy I had. According to the diagram... -Connector E -pin1 should be "IG" on the alternator with a B-Y wire. -Connector E -pin3 should be "S" on the alternator with a W wire. When I...

    do you really need a power steering cooler?

    Does anyone know why most PS coolers (oem & aftermarket) are either just bent tubing or tube/fin designs? I don't see any bar/plate coolers for power steering use while searching around. Most coolers offered specifically for PS are pretty wimpy looking compared to oil/tranny coolers. As I...

    Losing battery juice when sleeping.

    Well the battery drain is fixed, but I think my alternator is cashed. All was fine for about the first 30 miles (12.4 - 15.3V running) then suddenly 11.8V on the gauge and 12.1 on the battery...no more charging. Drove it home and jumped in my other truck as I had to go. I looked at it only...

    Losing battery juice when sleeping.

    This may help... I also have had battery/charging problems since I got my swap running (Soarer 1jz custom wired into my truck). I get no error codes nor a charge warning lamp. If I let it sit for 2-3 days the battery would drain. A fresh battery with a voltage of 12.8 would drop to 12.5...

    1JZ boosts horribly when cold

    The lc-1 has a narrowband simulation output as well... that's how the stock ecu uses it. It has to be a feature of the wideband controller.

    mk1/mk3/pickup hybrid

    Yup, the Supra lsd will drop right in with the correct carrier bearings (one from the truck and one from the Supra iirc). Check out ZUK's differential page... all the info you need is there... http://gearinstalls.com/index.htm

    Can it be saved?!?

    JB Weld is a ghetto fix to say the least, considering how cheap it is to repair properly... But if your on the supercheap JB Weld is some pretty amazing stuff... I put the main upper inlet nipple and the overflow nipple (back) on a radiator with JB Weld (emergency off road repair). It never...
