    Stock Radio

    Ok, so you guy's haven't heard of this.. should be a wiring problem then. I hate hacking wiring, so don't worry about the cutting - not gonna happen. Good to know about the radio size - I'm not a radio guy. Thanks for the help!

    Is that USG or IMP G? I don't know what I get, but I don't anticipate that.. What's the trick? Is there a fuel mileage thread somewhere with these answers in it?

    Fuel Cut?

    I just got 24 and 31 out of the ECU, so is the intake air temp sensor in the AFM? Seems likely. I'll reset it, and see if the codes come back tonight.

    Stock Radio

    My stock radio does not work. The symptoms are unique, so I thought if anyone has heard of it before. The car is an 87. The radio will not turn on if the car is cold. Once warmed up (I have no idea why this matters, but it's pretty consistent) the radio will flicker on and off for some...

    Fuel Cut?

    Nope, but the CEL lights if I forget to connect the AFS (so I think it works)... Is there a code for a leak in the IC pipes?

    Fuel Cut?

    Thanks for the help. It turns out that when I replaced the exhaust manifold gasket, and repaired all the stripped threads, I did not tighten the hose clamp on the outlet side of the turbo. It's tight now, and the car boosts to ~5-6 psi. Under full throttle on the highway it seems to hesitate...

    Fuel Cut?

    Sorry if I wasn't clear, it is a turbo.

    Charging issue...

    Or you could use your multimeter to test your power off draw, and your alternator voltage output. If you really care you could take your 29.99 and buy your own battery load tester, but a power off voltage test is usually sufficient. I think if you wanted to, you could answer every question...

    Fuel Cut?

    Alright, I'll fifth it. heh heh Thanks folks, I'll report back. I guess if there is an air leak after the MAS, the car will have the wrong info for mixture. If I unplug my MAS, will the car use the O2 sensor? That would be an easy way to confirm... not that looking at the IC hoses...

    Fuel Cut?

    Hello! I bought an 87 a few weeks ago, and have been driving it for about a week. Tonight, halfway through a drive, on the highway, the car stumbled going up a hill. It was like I turned the key off, paused and turned it back on. After that whenever I tried to accelerate, even "normally" or...

    Charging issue...

    It's really easy to pull off one battery cable, and connect it in series with an amp meter. More than 10A will burn most multi-meters so if the reading is 10 or more, don't hold it on for long. If you have no current flow, or very little, your problem lies elsewhere. From what you are...

    How much play is normal in a Stock Turbo shaft?

    .047" = 1.1938 mm .18 mm = .0071" (7 thou) I would take the TSRM over someone telling you that 0.1" is OK. I don't even think there is 0.1" of clearance around the compressor to the housing. Maybe why the chip is there?

    Engine sticking after rebuild...

    Hi Folks. I'm new here, but I have built a lot of motors, Honda B series and Nissan 240Zs seem to be the most applicable to the 7M-GTE (I bought my Supra a few weeks ago). From my experience, the following applies: 1. It's not a lube problem. Even with no lube, the crank will spin...
