    knock sensor question

    thanks for the replies guys. Maybe I need to fiddle with it a bit more then. You guys would love the way the previous person wired this up. The rear knock sensor is busted so they took the broken side of the sensor itself and ran a wire from it and tapped into the other sensor wire harness...

    Oil burning + funny starting

    I had a little problem with mine firing right up when cold as well. I dont really remember how many cranks it took, but it would stumble when stone cold until it ran for a minute or so and warmed up. I ended up cleaning my cold start injector,as is it was caked with black soot, and that...

    intake pipe...

    what kinda pipe are you using? If its muffler exhaust, then that will be tooooo heavy. I have a piece of that under my hood right now, thats about 2 ft long and the weight is rediculous.

    Turbo Injectors On An N/a

    you also dont have the oil squirters.But Ive read on this forum that they are not necessarily needed. Personally if toyota made the gte with them, then I would think they would be important.

    Can't get the key out of the ignition!

    The problems stated with the keys coming out regardless of the ignition switch position happens when using copies of the original key. My 89 does the same thing with the last copy I had made at the local locksmith. But when I use the key that I had cut at the dealership it does not. I thought...

    mobil 5000 synthetic??

    IMO, 1500 mile oil change is overkill with synthetic. These oils do not break down like dyno oils. That is why they cost more because they withstand more.

    OIL: Pennzoil vs Amsoil NON-synthetic

    oh yeah and Nickleye, that is why im intrigued by the 5w40 and 0w40 that mobil 1 makes. the pour ability of 5 or even 0 weight but the protection of a 40 weight when heated. And that is why the high performance cars come from the factory with 0w40 in them. That oil must flow lightning fast...

    OIL: Pennzoil vs Amsoil NON-synthetic

    Siman I dont know how many miles you have on your brand new rebuild, but you definitely dont want to run synthetic in fresh rebuild. It wont allow your rings to seat properly if at all. Definitley want the dino oil for a fresh rebuild
