    Problem with supra not running

    7M ECUs are pretty much bulletproof, except for reverse polarity events. If you resolve all fusible links and everything else and it still doesn't work, you may need to consider getting a replacement ECU.

    Toyota Red Coolant = ?

    Here the red stuff is called long-life coolant, is not premixed, and was the factory fill for antiques like the Supra. The pink stuff is Super Long Life Coolant and is premixed and is the factory fill for current Toyotas. It is HOAT non-silicate, non-amine, non-borate. Honeywell (Prestone)...

    I'll bet the smell of an overheated starter is lot like burning sine wures!

    repetitive front main seal leakage

    I forgot that the front crank seal rides on the crank timing-belt pulley. That is very convenient as you can change it out easily if grooved. Also, there was a discussion a long time ago about the fact that there is no o-ring seal between the pulley and the crank nose, so that oil, in theory at...

    repetitive front main seal leakage

    Oil pressure plays no role in a front crank seal leak.Most likely, replacing the dipstick with one that sealed better raised your crankcase pressure and that created a leak at the next weakest point which apparently was your front crank seal. 1) Your PCV should be setup like a stock turbo with...

    For Speaker Sizes and Questions Click Here

    I would verify that when the window is rolled down it doesn't hit anything in that space. The door space is pretty tightly packed, not much room for more stuff.

    Fuel Pressure to Fuel Flow (tech question)

    As long as the fuel flowing out the injectors is only a fraction of the pump flow rate, the rest will be dumped into the return line to the tank and is effectively wasted, i.e. not used by the engine. Using Figgie's example at 40psi, six 440cc/min injectors at 80% will use 127 lph, so you...

    Brakes Locking up, Help!

    It is possible the ABS actuator is locking a wheel up. If it does, the wheel will usually be locked on hard, you will not be able to move. The ABS light should trigger. If its the master cylinder you would expect both fronts or both rears to be locked.

    4" gem?

    Reviving the dead..... I following up very late the outcome of installing the Boston 4.5in speakers in the rear boxes. It took some work, I had to remove the mag shields and grind the outer ferrite ring to fit into the cramped factory box. The result is a modest improvement in the...

    jdm ecu on a non jdm motor

    No it won't. Its running closed loop and the A/F will be fine. The issue is, with no EGR and a USDM ECU the base timing will be too advanced.

    Engine oil pressure not increasing.

    On the 7MGTE, the oil cooler circuit kicks in at 40 psi (2.8 kg/cm^2) preventing the pressure from going any higher.

    Radio not working question ??

    Oh yeah, forgot about those, must be getting senile. :aigo: For 89+, the following is true, not sure about 86-88: Left kick panel is a 7.5A fuse they both share (E1). Also, there is a big junction box with 3 connectors from cowl wire to instrument panel wire (E3)...

    Radio not working question ??

    Is this a JDM car? Not sure what you mean by the mirrors not working. The UDM cars do not have power folding mirrors, although they do have defrosters.

    Radio not working question ??

    You need to remove the radio and disconnect the power plugs. Then start by checking for power and ground on the relevant pins. +B should have 12V all the time ACC should have 12 V with the ignition on or in accessory position GND shoul d be low resistance to ground The rest are don't care for...
