    Is my Crank Pulley/Harmonic Balancer bad?

    If the key way in the crank is worn(key fits loosely, or the notch is damaged), you'l need to have it repaired, or get a new crank. If the key is broken, or the edges are badly rounded, you need to get a new key. Either way, if you just slap a new pulley on, and the crank or key is messed up...

    ID'd for Robitussin?

    Not me. Friend in N.J., Frank Meloi: I've had a bad cough for the past two days so I decided to stop at A&P on my way home tonight and pick up some Robotussin. When I brought the box up to the register the cashier asked me for ID. "Why do you need to see ID? I'm paying in cash." I asked. He...

    Gun caliber?

    As far as what I would "prefer" for defense: Home defense: 12ga. 00 buck 3 1/2" mags. Not a big need to be accurate, just point in the general direction. Big boom, and lots of lead filling the hall/doorway. IF they survive, they'll wish they hadn't. It's highly unlikely an ambulance would...

    Quick question

    Fortunately, the 7m is pretty straight forward. Especially with the Toyota Service and Repair Manual being on line. As far as how long will it take, the first answer was the best one.

    Is my Crank Pulley/Harmonic Balancer bad?

    Around 40k miles is okay. Mine have over 200k, and its still intact. What does the crank look like? The key way worn, or the key damaged?

    Installed ported head & dropped comp. on two cylinders

    Hmm.... Sounds like a valve issue. Not seating properly for some reason. Did you have a valve job done, or just lapped in?

    Need major help!!!

    Ground issue, maybe, for the fuel pump relay. No spark: check the coil and ignitor. http://cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=IG&P=1

    How do you guys react when you see a fellow MK3 owner?

    The only ones I see around here are usually sitting in a yard. I've offered to buy each of them, but they wanted ridiculous amounts for them, with the work they needed. Why so much? It's a Supraahhh!!!! Freakin' 'tards. Supposedly, there's 2 or 3 other white mkiii's in town, and...

    Will the trans drop enough....

    Yes, you need to pull the console. It's pretty easy, and will make the job a lot easier.

    Vacuum diagrams

    toyz: none. They're all there for a reason. If you start killing systems on the car, you'll start having running/starting issues. The vacuum system on this car is bare bones, and comes stock with one of the smallest systems of its day(take a peek under the hood of an '88 Prelude sometime...

    problem with timing...

    No kidding.... I now know how the cps should look when setting the timing, though :) Pulling the cover off and setting it as shown in the pic seems pretty easy. More like setting the dist. on an n/a. I have that pic in my link folder. Thanks :)

    need some help

    So there's no O2 in it? That could cause it to run rich, which would be fouling the plugs. You do have the cam pins in the center holes on both cams and gears, correct? Timing issue is weird. It really seems like something is out of alignment... How does it idle without the jumper and...

    need some help

    Well, lets just say knocking is never good... Just out of curiosity, how does it run with the timing light off, and the jumper out? How long have you had the car running since you hooked the battery up? Any vacuum leaks? AFPR? O2 sensor hooked up?
