    Ebay Full Silicone Hose Kit

    Chinese. Fwiw my car got only one set of hoses (I'm talking coolant hoses) and belts during its entire life. The set that came with the car new was tossed at 105K miles when I did the engine and their Toyota replacements were still fine 80K later when the car went away after 22+ years. The lower...

    7MGTE fan clutch

    Means it has to be the fan. It's why everyone in the thread is focusing on fans. Because you said it's the fan.

    A little help if you will.

    Code 22? Check the cold start system? CSI and Thermo Time Switch? Is the fuel pump coming on during cranking (COR ok?) Great, now I'm gonna have nightmares from my Fort Jackson days...

    PCV system questions

    Yep, atmospheric pressure does the work. Everything in nature flows from high to low and vacuum doesn't "suck". While we're on the PCV system it's important to remember that with it connected there's a lot of stuff on the engine that must be leak tight to prevent pirate air. Valve covers, oil...

    My apologies to suprafanatic for being a bit hard on him. He's guilty only of ignorance, not outright stupidity.

    Removing A/C found a plug in the dash

    It's very important to the heater. Since it's not even connected to the AC system ("ac sensor" is a misnomer) there's no reason to mess with it. On the next page: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=143 Everything to the left of the G-O wire, everything...

    Too bad to use? Cold start hose

    The hose will be fine for now. It needs to be replaced at some point though and not just for safety. It's deteriorating on the inside and will start shedding crap into the fuel system. Nobody plans on fires btw...

    Best way to purge air out of cooling system? thanks

    What Nick said. Much less here: http://tinyurl.com/8468cs8 What I use these days. There's cheaper ones out there. You need a compressor though. http://tinyurl.com/7tcggce That said I drove this this car for over 20 years and never needed to burp it. As long as I filled slowly it...

    Funky starting issue

    So the IDL contact is OK. Fix the CPS wiring. If the engine has spark, fuel, and correct timing it has to run...right? You can start and drive the car all day long with the diag jumper in. Doesn't matter once you're off idle.

    these are the knock sensors im planning on gettin ???/

    Since your link is bad I have no idea what the difference is. Look here: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=8401&P=1 Click on the knock sensor number. Amazing no? Certain KS for a manual? Wtf would the tranny have to do with it?

    Too bad to use? Cold start hose

    It's connected to the fuel rail isn't it? Is the inside part also brittle? How old is it? You carry an extinguisher in your car right? Should be fine...

    PCV system questions

    What he said. It's not about pressure. I noticed much of what you think is flawed. Ever hear of the Dunning-Kruger effect? Maybe you should just leave things alone until know at least as much as the engineers who designed the car.

    PCV system questions

    ^ That. OP: The system flows both ways. Below atmospheric pressure fresh air for dilution is drawn from the accordion to be mixed with HC from the valve covers before going into the TB to be combusted. Above atmospheric pressure air is metered out of the TB through an orifice to pick up HC on...

    PCV system questions

    Look at the rest of the page. Or save the photo and enlarge it. Pressurize the crankcase? Are you serious? And you were arguing electrical stuff with an EE?
