    WHERE to buy flux for soldering wire

    Reliability is a tricky subject, and even the big guys get it wrong sometimes. If your interested search for Northrop Grumman HBT and NRO satellites. Also, the ROHS compliant electronics in a lot of recent cars have been failing at egregious rates. I can vouch for JJ's recommendation to use...

    Auto trans issues, need some help :)

    When I tried higher pressures the downshifts were especially harsh under low throttle and it became annoying. There's not really any point that I can see, since you only need the higher pressure when the throttle is open, so let the cable do its things and put the tranny under less strain for...

    aeromotive FPR Location question

    For safety the FPR should be mounted to the engine. You don't want it torn off in an accident spewing fuel all over the engine bay. Under the intake manifold there is room.

    7mgte dash wiring issues

    That's because the TEWD is organized by system. To find the pinout of B1, you need to look at the systems that are using it, such as the TCCS. This is a bit of a chicken and egg, but for this connector you know its mainly the TCCS using it, so start there. For example, this page shows B1...

    3P's TCCS Disassembly/Analysis

    Not sure how I missed post #571. The strongest evidence points to the mcu being fabricated by Toshiba (somewhere in this thread is a picture of a development board using Toshiba branded mcus) , but it really is neither here nor there. The part is exclusive to Denso, and there are no commercial...

    7M GTE makes the list

    Yeah, the electrical components comment was clueless on their part. In fact, in general the accessories on the mk3 are bulletproof.

    Adding cruise control?

    90+ with airbags use the standard Toyota column cruise switch that they still use to this day. Should be straightforward to use with a non-airbag wheel.

    How hot is considered overheating?

    The BMW N54, and presumably other modern engines, uses an electric water pump, which they run after shutdown to keep the turbos cool.

    no start when hot?

    Sadly know one knows how to read a wiring diagram and troubleshoot such a simple circuit.... so adding a relay it is!

    Works like the separator on any Volvo. Just pull one off a dead 850 in a junkyard if you really like it.

    More wiring problems......

    The TEWD is organized by system, not connectors. M1 and B1 are part of the TCCS system, so look there for the info you seek. E.g. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=49

    H&R springs too low

    Tanabe GF-10s have the least drop of the aftermarket springs I could find for the A70, about 1.1in front and 0.6in rear. They are pretty stiff. I was able to keep stock alignment settings with these springs.
