Pronounce it without the "r", and you'll have it ;)

You should get a couple more quotes. you should be able to find it a little cheaper. I just wanted to point out that it's not an easy, in and out type of job. Labor is probably a little high, depending on the average hourly shop rate in your area. You should be able to get a reconditioned...

You need to go out to the car and closely inspect the throttle linkage with the engine off. Work it from under the hood by hand, and find the sticky point. There's a few places where it could be. You could spray it down with a good penetrating oil to clean it(cover the plug wires with some...

If you need injectors, I have a set out of my 87 n/a parts car. Drop me a pm if you want them.

Oil: http://www.supramania.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=108 Very informative, worth the time to read it all. Your tick could be valve lash, injectors, arching plug wires, and more. Valve lash would be my first thought as well. Very typical on this type of motor. Buckets are solid...

What are you having trouble with? Standard or auto? A load leveler will make it much easier. Make sure your motor mounts are loose, they're easier to line up that way. If you're installing just the engine(trans. still in car), make sure that the trans. and motor are at the same angle. The...

The name of the movie is Bam's profession. Should get his ass beat for antics involving damaging other people's property, or assaulting other people physically. Hopefully, his luck will fail, and make the gene pool that much cleaner....

^^lol, reminds me of a buddy in h.s. with house speakers in the back seat of his 65 Falcon.

You mean electrical parts cleaner, correct? I sure would hate for someone to hose down the afm connectors with brake cleaner...

I would say bhg between the 2 cylinders is most likely, but a mechanical failure as others have suggested is very likely as well. Either way you have to pull the motor apart to fix the problem. Good Luck :) Hopefully its just a hg problem.

The question isn't how long it was driven after the bolt fell out, but how long was it loose, with the harmonic dampener wobbling it's way forward, creating an unbalanced state on the front of the crank, which more than likely caused some very nasty vibrations along the crankshaft. Probably...

I'd get a rebuild kit from the dealer. Around $200 I think, but I'll know better tomorrow. Need to rebuild mine as well. Here's a thread from SF that might help some: http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=430339

Doward: Why not the LS6? Seems it's close to 400c.i. iirc, with aluminum block, heads, etc. like the LS1? I believe there's a company offering a complete supercharger system for both as well. Only thing I don't like about either one is the plastic intake plenums(If I'm thinking of the right...

Valve seal maybe? Knocked some loose carbon off of a valve seat? Pushed a valve open?

Iirc, the turbo and n/a throttle bodies are the same diameter. On the turbo model it might make a difference, but on the n/a I wouldn't sweat it. What I would do is try to make a CAI that is as short as possible. Thought about putting it in the fender behind the tire, to make a straight...

I really don't think the exhaust is gonna have much to do with the low end power loss. At most, the exhaust leak is going to effect noise levels, as this isn't a tuned header we're talking about. I think it would be more of an ACIS problem, timing, or just a dire need of a tune-up. OR all of...

Actually, my first Supra love was an 83 model. Damn near indestructible, much faster than the 83 Trans Am I had before it, and all around a much better car than anything else I was looking at. I got my 87 Supra about 5 yrs. later(83 was rusting apart, beyond help), and never looked back. Even...

Ahh, snow. How i don't miss it. Nice truck. My bro. in Penn. has an '04 that he loves for winter driving up there.

If there were 2 water reservoirs in your area that were poisoned, wouldn't you like to know about it?
