You must be one of those smarterer people he was talking about...

You refuse to pay someone to do work you can yet you're extremely frustrated but what is a simple electrical problem? I don't get it.

Uh, no. The fuel system in these cars doesn't prime. Schematics don't lie. He has a problem, likely wiring related.

Nope, not me. As I said you've too much conviction. If you're happy with that fix and how the car runs more power to you.

What's remarkable is you say all that with such conviction.

See? More pie.

Crack me up. This place is like a pie eating contest where first prize is more pie...

Again, cal the TPS per the TSRM. Make sure the throttle is not being held open by the linkage or dashpot. If necessary remove the TPS from the TB and check it. Use voltage, resistance, or both. If it fails the checks replace it. It's nothing more than a potentiometer and a switch. When the...

Not a good sign...

Well, you're right about one thing: you have a very basic understanding of this stuff. I thought you just wanted to fix the car. My bad.

Impedance is irrelevant. Either fix the problem with your previous rewire or do it again.

Did you learn anything?

No

Yes to the first question, I don't know to the second. And even though it's been three years that main relay response is a hoot...

The TCCS manuals cover much of this. In a nutshell the injectors on both flavors of 7M are saturated driven, voltage controlled (hence either the resistor pack or high impedance to limit current), and latency is automatically compensated for. It's old school. Current controlled injection is the...

Ferrule aka compression ring. Item 25601A: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=2501&P=1 Click on that number to see info. Iirc brass. Maybe copper. Standard part. Being a consumable it's hard to believe Toyota would no longer have it. Try NAPA. Prolly metric...

My WOT 3.85 volts measurement falls within the expected voltage? It's less than 4.8 volts isn't it? Appx 3.6 is typical for WOT so what you're seeing is normal. My closed throttle measurement of just shy of 1 volt is to be expected? No, it's too high. Should be around 200-300 mv. Recal...

I wish all posts were as "boring". Do you get 51 with the TPS connected and throttle cracked? Other than a bad ECU there are only three conditions that will set 41: 1) VTA more than 4.8 vdc (open circuit). 2) VTA less than 100 mv (short circuit). 3) VTA exceeds 1.5 vdc with IDL low. The...

^ This. Hard to have sympathy for anyone who chooses to endanger others instead of learning to repair what is arguably one of the simplest circuits in the car. Or pay to have it done. Course, being so focused on his own needs (avoiding cops) is probably getting in the way...

"ni99er rigged?" I'm curious, what kind of remarks were you looking for with that?
