    7M-GTE No comression Cyl 2 and 5

    My $$$ is on a BHG. The HKS MHG's are not tolerant (at all) of a standard machine deck surface...they require a RA spec of 30 or less. If the block or head decks were not perfectly flat, it definitely will not seal. Looks like you get to do the job again...if you are not going to get the...

    all brake options

    Dowards brake set-up uses Mustang calipers, not A80. It's not that expensive either...~$600 for the front (including calipers) iirc.

    7M-GTE No comression Cyl 2 and 5

    Did you deck the block? Or, at least check it for flatness? Was the head decked and a valve job done? Do you have access to a bore scope?

    Oil Analysis - Post your VOA and UOA Here

    Yep, the lead is a cause for concern..copper and tin are a bit high too. All point at the bearings. Is this the 1st fill after the rebuild? (i.e. did the PO change the oil right after 100 miles and then again after 500? Or, did he fill and go till you changed it?). What kind of air...

    what is the best thing to use to seal my oilpan?

    Permatex The Right Stuff has served me well...don't use the cork gasket.

    a couple ?s

    Actually it doesn't make sense. A code 12 is no Ne or G signal within 2 sec after engine start. Setting timing is no way possible responsible for this code. It is possible for the CPS wiring or it's connector to be the problem. Or, the igniter or it's circuit could be as well. Carter - this...

    There's no teaching the brainwashed...

    First oil, and now filters. I can't believe what that guy is basing his opinion for Fram filters on. Incredible!

    a couple ?s

    I've seen products like it...superb way to clog up your cooling system. Pull the EFI fuse to clear, then re-check codes. Code 12 will not illuminate the CEL, but is stored in memory. Could be due to the igniter or CPS. Yep, fix it. Check for other vac/IC piping leaks too.

    The Supra passed inspection for the first time since 2001!!!

    I have doe it, just like the link I pointed you to. It's not a hard job, but you will need a helper to tell you when the tranny pumps out fresh fluid into your container. This link should help as well: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/TechTips/transmission_filter.aspx

    uh oh EGR :p

    You are confused on how the EGR works Bernie...it does not work at idle (the EGR vac port is forward of the TB) and above ~4000 RPM the ECU shuts off vac via the VSV. With the TB plate open, coolant temp above 145 deg F, and in the EGR ops range (>idle, < 4000 RPM) the EGR vac modulator is...

    Cleaning engine bay, what to use?

    I used to charge $100 for a turbo manifold...make sure they do the inside and use a 2000 deg F rated coating. Black is best on an exhaust manifold.

    Cleaning engine bay, what to use?

    Powder coat is not going to handle the heat on an exhaust manifold anyway. It would need to be a ceramic coat.

    87 7mgte wont start when is hot

    Somehow, I think so...among others. The ECU grounds are off the main harness that runs by the intake manifold...if you have them hooked up on the drivers side panel behind the battery, it will be quite the stretch. (you seriously need to get someone to look at your car that knows what they...

    Slightly Rough Idle

    That doesn't sound bad actually. What plugs and wires are you using?
