    Bad AFM electronics or something else?

    Hard starts, runs rough and no power is something a bad egr could cause. Not sure if it could cause stalling but I have seen weirder things. It's worth a try. I could be completely wrong but what do you have to lose??

    hot start problem

    VSV= vacuum switching valve. There are a couple of them. But we only need to look at the fp vsv. I would do what grimjack said. I had a similar problem. Crank no start when hot. Checked the fp vsv and it was missing. Replaced it and problem solved.

    7mgte starting issue and a couple other things vid inside

    Pulled codes many times. Never any codes. Checked rest pressure per tsrm and got 38psi. I redid all vac lines when I put in the new FPU vsv so those should be ok. Haven't checked the idle speed control valve yet. I'll do that next and come back with results. Thanks for the input Mryuk. I'll...

    7mgte starting issue and a couple other things vid inside

    Thanks for the responses. But on the subject of the starting issue. Might have confused you a bit. I'm not talking about where the idle sits. Notice in the second video that the rpms go from 500 then smooths out at 800. Before I put the FPU vsv it would go to about 500rpms then stall right...

    7mgte starting issue and a couple other things vid inside

    OK so ever since I bought my MKiii I have had starting troubles. It ended up being more than one issue I had. One was the igniter. I replaced that. Then I found the CPS wires at the connector broken and falling a part. So I got some new connectors and re-solder them back together. After fixing...

    quick question

    Hey all. Just got a quick question. So I was putting my power steering lines back on and decided that it would be easier to do with the air filter and afm out of the way. while taking them out I pulled to quickly and the little hose at the bottom came off with it. So after getting everything...

    I got it from RI and the old registration said Carlos on it. I don't think I bought it off Carlos though. It was some other kid and he never even registered it. In the glove box there was a receipt for a head gasket, so I'm pretty sure someone fixed that. When I get her started she runs fine...

    Front subframe

    Control arms and sway bars are the same for both right? If the rack is different its not that big of deal. I can find a turbo one. Probably going to use old hubs. Not sure what else I need to worry about. Guess I'll find out when I get it. lol

    Front subframe

    Are all the front subframe for the 86.5 to 92 non-turbo and turbo the same. I need a front subframe and rack for my 88 turbo and I found an 87 non turbo for $150. Just wanted to know if it will bolt on before I go pick it up. Thanks.

    Took a little bit for me to upload them, but here are the pics. A little rough around the edges but still looks decent I think. Paint is fading here and there, missing a couple trim pieces. Tell me what you guys think.

    Newest member of SM and just wanted to say hello... hello... Name's Jeff. Just recently picked up my first supra. 88 hardtop turbo. Little bit about my cars: I've had a couple DSMs in the past. Also owned an NSRT-4 and recently had a 240sx. Traded the 240 for the supra and this is where I'm at...
