    Tdc

    Thanks for the heads up on finding TDC. I did a bit of both the cygnus suggestions and Cyfi6's suggestions. I believe I got it at TDC although I can't see the nose of the cam exactly, but I started with it facing the oil filler, rolled the engine back 120 degrees or so and then rolled it back...

    I've done some searching here and haven't found exactly what I'm looking for. I've developed what appears to be a very common oil leak from the distributor o-ring. At first I thought this was being caused by the oil sending unit as I didn't use any teflon tape or thread sealant when I first...

    Incomplete exhaust......really poor idle....I'll explain

    Okay so I rented a fuel pressure tester and hooked it up at the cold start injector per the TSRM. With the key in the "on" position I get no pressure what-so-ever. When I turn the engine over I get a good build up to about 40psi and the engine will turn over. I watched the gauge and it'll...

    Incomplete exhaust......really poor idle....I'll explain

    My hope is that because the engine was a runner without issue when it was removed from the donor car that nothing has changed there. I'm gonna check into those anyway just to make sure. MAF is hooked up and I'm gonna take a look at the air intake in total to make sure I tightened down all the...

So I appeal to you all who know these engines better then I do. Where to start, here? If you haven't read through that huge first posting of mine the issue...

    Incomplete exhaust......really poor idle....I'll explain

    I read up a bit on this and I believe I was okay there. I was in the garage for the test fire and since I have added as much of the next section of exhaust as would fit. I'm gonna get it to the exhaust shop tomorrow and I'll see how it acts. If no improvement then I'll have to try to...

    Incomplete exhaust......really poor idle....I'll explain

    No adjustments whatsoever. I was wondering if that could be a potential issue. I didn't want to go and adjust anything just yet. I'll have to give that a look once I get the exhaust finished up tomorrow afternoon. I was wondering, I got a donor throttle cable from another supra, close in model...

    Incomplete exhaust......really poor idle....I'll explain

    Hey there everyone I need your assistance. First off I'll let you all know that I currently drive a 1994 Toyota pickup :aigo:, but wait before you click off this thread I'll have you know there is a 7MGE out of a 1988 Supra living there. Better? Good. Now I need some piece of mind. I just...

    Cressida / Supra 7MGE differences..

    Hey I'm pretty new on this site, but I happen to just have swapped an oil pump from a '89 Cressida into a 7m out of a '88 Supra. Had to swap pans from a mid-sump to a front sump and it bolted right in which successfully relocated the pick-up into the right location for me. I'm not sure if that...
