Hopefully you won't be like other people and never give an update when you finally do fix the problem. So many threads are left hanging. It can get frustrating when you're searching for a problem, and it seems everybody has the issue but nobody discusses what the solution finally was...

I sincerely recommend that anyone considering the Lex/550 upgrade read this article by Reg Riemer, the guy who originally designed this upgrade. It details the reasons he chose to do things they way he did, the research and math that went into it, and the purpose for each component of this...

Not to start a pirate, don't pirate derailment but I've made it a point to purchase the game If like it or chose to play more than a few hours of it. Even if I never install the Retail version, and keep playing the DRM free version. I hope you guys consider doing the same. The PC game suffers...

In concern to your first post I think hvyman is right. It sounds like the spring tension on your BOV is incorrect. Correctly adjusted you shouldn't have that problem. That said, I don't particularly care for BOV's as I believe they create more issues than benefits on a MAF/KVM based system. A...

Yeah, get a good battery in there. Our cars will do some crazy things when the battery is low, including screw with the headlights.

Quite right, and it's only $29.96 from Champion Toyota. Small price to pay for a genuine Toyota part that was designed for the job.

I've driven cars with lightened flywheels, and from a daily driver stand point they suck. In a non-drag, track car there are definitely benefits. In a weekend canyon carver there are definitely benefits. And while you can get used to touchy engagement, and picky shifts, it still requires more...

This is possible. If the Coils are not getting hot enough to jump the gap it won't start the combustion process. This means the oxygen and fuel inside that cylinder is not used up and will register on a wideband as lean. The sensor is only designed to detect oxygen, not fuel. So even though the...

Both were smooth clean pulls. I've had Dyno operators tell me they like I6 motors because of that, there's no drama with them, they pull clean. And you can tell Tony's was very well tuned, no popping or backfiring on throttle lift. I love those pulls, and you're right, the 7M does have a unique...

Thanks for the heads up JJ, I wasn't currently aware of this. Though it makes sense, I was wondering why California didn't preform the OBD-II test when places like Washington state did. It would have made the smog check I did on my truck last week a lot easier.

Repost. The News bot beat you to it yesterday. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?131548-Russian-Cop-Begs-To-Get-Into-Car-As-Wolves-Interrupt-Traffic-Stop-Video

Like steven said, it's a bad idea. First, we have a KVM not a MAF, different methods of operation with different results to changing the housing characteristics. The KVM is tuned to the flow characteristics of the OEM housing. The shape, sensor distance from the opening, distance from the...

Lol, no problem. I appreciate the offer for the paypal, but I'm just glad I could help. I hope you get the cooler working to your satisfaction. And like 3p1415... said the peltier chip doesn't like to be powered up without the cooler, but if it's an OEM model it won't have any marking for...

I would recommend something like an Artic Silver thermal compound for both sides. And when you go to re install it make sure you get the hot side on the heat sink and the cold side on the fridge. You can check this by applying power for a split second. One side should be warm and the other...

That fridge uses what is known as a peltier cooler. It's a thermoelectric heat pump. One side of that plate is supposed to get hot, and the other side gets cool. It uses electricity to move heat from one side to the other. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect It's not any where...

Damn, there isn't. Without the diagram I'm limited in what I can understand about this resistor, or the circuit it's involved in. You can try replacing it if you can find one, though I doubt that will solve your problem. Sorry, I wish I could have been more help.

That makes sense, I've heard components make an audible tone when subjected to extremely high frequencies as I'm sure this component sees. I doubt replacing this resistor is going to fix the problem. But if you really want to replace it, it needs to be replaced with an identical metal film...

What type of circuit is this in? What type of voltage are you putting through it. I assume since you say it is singing to you it is in an AC circuit. As such what is the frequency of the circuit? On thing I've found doing repair work on electronics is that resistors are extremely durable when...

I noticed you had a thread where you were having trouble getting the timing right. Did you get that properly sorted? I also saw a thread where you had some GTE injectors waiting for install. You have not installed them correct? Are you also sure you have no codes?

Huh.... Sounds like me, four years ago.
