the radiator hoses are all new, i'm not gonna cut it lol
EDIT: and i don't think that hose kit includes the hoses i need, it just includes the thin hoses
I'm thinking that the 2 small filters on top of the, NIPPLES hehehe, will be a better choice then a catch can. Should I just block off the one on the throttle?
My PCV tube is messed up, so I thought this was a good time to look into the mods I see on some other supras here.
What are some things that can be done to the PCV system? I've seen many different setups, what's the best besides stock?
I think I know what all that dark chipped stuff is on top of my No. 3 cylinder cover... paint. I saw some pictures of clean stock engines and their No. 3 cylinder covers are the color of the chip like things on mine, so the paint must have simply chipped off.
Should i look to buy a new one...
hey i remember seeing pictures of someones engine bay and insted of that bent bar behind the 3000 pipe, they had these small air filter thingies. what's the deal with those?
should i do anything about the wire or the plugged hose?
First valve cover off, hooray
The second one was a bitch to get off because of that oil return hose...which was cracked/cracking too.
I need to remove the alternator to get the rest of the cracked hose off, and a new one on :( (and no i'm not talking about that hose sticking up)...
Things I needed to replace at the start of this process: Valve Cover Gaskets, Cam Seals, Crank Seal, Timing Belt.
I've never done complicated work like this, only simple tune up things. Any help along the way will be much appreciated.
Here's my parts, and the engine before...
for one thing, if you have TEMS, keep the setting on normal.
if you have new rims, there's a big factor right there too. put on your stock rims back on with lowish tire pressure
and maybe your suspension is bad, a new set of springs/struts could help out a lot... i wouldn't recomend...
