    Silicon engine hoses.

    It's "brake" and using silicone there is a bad idea unless it's reinforced or you put a spring in it.

    #1 cyliinder miss - intermittent & can NOT find the cause

    Good deal. At the risk of greatly oversimplifying the plasma physics involved it helps to think of the ionization occurring across the plug gap as a resistor with the mixture changing resistance. Too rich or lean and misfire occurs.

    Alternator Replacement Video - Stabilized HD

    You be welcome. Keep in mind the typical alternator doesn't put out much at low rpm. It's the nature of the beast. I had to put a different pulley on my DMC12 for just that reason. Downside with doing that sort of thing is the alternator can be over spun at the other end and possibly disassemble...

    Alternator Replacement Video - Stabilized HD

    Could be a bad connection to the field connector, bad regulator, brushes, or a bad rectifier assembly. The stator and field windings are a different story. Replaceable but not worth it. Assuming those are good overhaul involves cleaning, replacing both bearings, polishing the slip rings, and new...

    Alternator Replacement Video - Stabilized HD

    Nice job. Fwiw I preferred to overhaul mine rather than replace. Not hard nor expensive to do. Need a rattle gun though.

    Mystery Window Problem

    Your post doesn't make much sense. What connector and pins are you taking about?

    Mystery Window Problem

    There is no "window control module" in the driver's door. Or anywhere else for that matter: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=094

    #1 cyliinder miss - intermittent & can NOT find the cause

    Have you looked at fueling for that cylinder? After all, current flow through the plasma is mixture dependent.

    AC wire on ecu

    Welcome mate. Yep, 12-14 vdc with AC on. Connector T, pin 10: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=49 http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=50 The connector and pin designations may not apply to your car but you get the idea. With...

    Heater core bypass, how to?

    That'd work. And what diff does it make which is the inlet and outlet if they're coupled?

    Yeah, you need to fix that TPS issue. I'd also zero out the SAFC until the engine was working properly...in fuel control at idle and part throttle.

    The TEWD is a much better place to look for that kind of thing.

    DIY: R-12 to R-134a Conversion (How To)

    Well, both. It's illegal because it's flammable and it's flammable because it's a hydrocarbon. Or maybe I didn't follow. The 142 is what carries the mineral oil. It's how F12 gets away with being a drop in. The problem is exactly what 3p stated. When that 142 leaks out (and it will before the...

    DIY: R-12 to R-134a Conversion (How To)

    ^ This. Monsewer, stick with R12 if at all possible. Second, the guy in that thread pretty much knows what's he's talking about except you don't have to go that far when doing 134a. It's best if you do but you don't have to. On the other hand you can't go too far the other way. At minimum...
