    Stupid fuel & brake line question.

    Make sure any fuel line hose you are going to use meets SAE J30R9. Also, submersible fuel injection hose rated SAE J30R10 is the only hose that will survive in-tank use.

    trouble starting

    Well, you could always diagnose the problem, rather than guess. That would require some effort though, so I can see why buying parts is attractive. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=12 http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=FI&P=112

    trouble starting

    The CSI is energized off the starter circuit, so it cannot be on during normal driving. It can leak however.

    Heat Loss inside cabin

    The servo position sensor is bad, which is not a user serviceable part in Toyota's eyes. Getting to it is non-trivial, a new one is expensive (or maybe discontinued) and putting a used one in is rolling the dice given the pain of replacing it twice! I haven't seen anyone try to repair it, but...

    Coolant gushing sound

    You typically don't see enough oil in the coolant to make it muddy until things are really bad. The early sign is the waterfall behind the dash, which is air in the coolant. If the leak is cylinder to coolant (very common) then the oil contamination doesn't happen, but combustion gasses in the...

    Coolant gushing sound

    You have symptoms of BHG. Sorry, but you need to do a block test to rule it out.

    Coolant gushing sound

    That's not a reliable test for a BHG on a 7M. Perform a block test.

    Factory oil pressure sender. Is it needed?

    While it is supposed to raise the idle 100 rpm when the pressure is low, it doesn't actually seem to work based on my tests.

    1989 Mge A/T non- turbo, 7.5 fuse in Driver's kick panel is reading 13 amp output

    Well, a 100A fuse doesn't just blow, there must have been a reason, and the usual one is a polarity mixup.
