    Wire to nowhere..

    That should go to your oil pressure sensor, located behind the power steering pump.

    Iridums or Copper?

    The increased ability of coppers to dissipate heat is one of the reasons they are preferred on high pressure boosted applications. On extended high power pulls the tip of platinum and more so the fine tip of iridium's can become a source of detonations and even pre-ignition. It is the reason you...

    Swapping in a later model ignition switch

    Hey Matt, as of five months ago Toyota of Escondido was able to cut me a new key from the VIN number for my 92 MKIII. You might check with the Burlington dealer up there to see if they can pull your code from your VIN. Maybe US dealers keep them longer than Canadan ones. Never hurts to check.

    stalling when rpms drop fast

    TSRM states what it should be and the TCCS makes fuel calculations with these baselines in mind. The only need to deviate is if at some point the AFR's get to rich or lean and you have no other way to correct the fuel trim, as adjusting the fuel pressure makes across the board, general changes...

    stalling when rpms drop fast

    That fuel pressure is a little high. Was that number determine necessary through tuning, and monitoring your AFR's. Normally you start at 33-40psi at idle with the vacuum hose off and plugged. Then when you attach the vacuum hose it should pull it down to 23-30psi. So you are going to be...

    stalling when rpms drop fast

    Are you still running the Lex/550 combos like your profile states? What do you have your fuel pressure set to?

    stalling when rpms drop fast

    Have you checked for codes? http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/TechTips/engine_error_codes.aspx There is a very good flow chart located here for for things to check in the event of stalling. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=14 Also a malfunctioning dashpot...

    Is it worth it

    That car has lived it's life of usefulness as a whole. Let it go quietly and keep looking. I'm sure it will serve a far better purpose as a parts car, than an absolute migraine wallet drain in your hands.

    I thought all 91s had power steering cooler

    All model years of the MKIII had a power steering cooler. Up until 91 it was just a metal length of pipe behind the front bumper. Then in 91(04/1990) they updated the design to be a longer loop and to have cooling fins. The redesign was applied to all turbo cars. However on non-turbo models the...

    low rich idle

    Yeah that would do it. Bummer. And I'll admit, I never looked under EGR vacuum solenoid for it, wonder why.:dunno:

    low rich idle

    You sure your thermo time switch is bad? The're not known for going bad. It won't kick back down to a lower resistance value until the coolant gets below 15°C(59°F). Going by where you list your location as, its entirely possible that the coolant didn't get low enough to rest it, even if sat...

    low rich idle

    Got ya, I miss understood when I first read that sentence. My apologies. As far as measuring the frequency you take the reading from The KS & E1 pins. With the engine running, you are looking for a relatively stable frequency, and for it to increase proportionally with airflow. If the...

    low rich idle

    THA & E2 should be showing a reading, however if there is an open or short between those 2 the the ECU will throw a code 24. The AFM houses two sensors, one is a air temp sensor, and the other is an opto-sensor that uses a mirror and a vortex generator to meter air flow. The THA and E1 pins...

    2JZ Swap: OBD2 Port Wireup in a 7M-GTE electrical dash help

    Ok if that site is accurate then you need to run these wires to the ECU: OBD2______ECU Pin2------->F60 pin 11 Pin5------->B2 pin 17

    2JZ Swap: OBD2 Port Wireup in a 7M-GTE electrical dash help

    I havn't done it myself but I can tell you that is the wrong cable. The one you have shown plugs into the OBD2 port. You need the other end. The female end. Something like this one: http://compare.ebay.com/like/151012379632?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar Next you need to...

    low rich idle

    To avoid confusion the stock electronics use an AFM to meter the air. A MAF is a different method of metering air entirely. It can be used on a 7M via a popular piggy-back electronic. That is why you will see a MAF referred to on here. But if your on stock electronics then we want to check the...

    low rich idle

    Like 3p141592654 said you really need to get those codes. Also what fuel system upgrades did you do? Is it just the FPR, walbro, and DM lines. Did these DM lines include the J-tube delete? You also might want to get rid of that K&N filter, the oil charge they impregnate the cotton medium with...

    Non Flouler mod?

    To be honest, having not owned a Cali spec 7MGE, I cant tell you for sure where it is located. Some people say the connection is under the driver side seat. But I don't know for certain.
