    7mgte no 5v reference

    I'm not saying it is but the ECU will not operate with the reference shorted. Does the MIL come on with the key? If so and there's still no Vc and you're sure it's not connected to anything the ECU is bad. I find that hard to believe though. Wrong section btw...

    Battery & Starter Wire Issues on JDM motor swap...

    If you used a small test light this might come back to haunt you. It does not draw enough current to verify the circuit path.

    Battery & Starter Wire Issues on JDM motor swap...

    I'm confused. Since the starter circuit is simple and can easily be troubleshot using a meter or test light why screw around trying all this other stuff? Also, and you may not care about this, but jumping the NSW will render the cruise control system inoperative...

    86.5 tail light problem

    So your hazard switch light, defogger switch light, climate control panel lights, cig lighter light, glove box light, dash lights, radio illumination, and marker lights also don't work?

    1989 turbo targa loss of power

    1) No boost without load. 2) The pump has an inlet sock. 3) The engine would have to stop for the fuel pump to be shut down. 4) Fuel delivery can be quickly checked by doing a snap throttle test while monitoring fuel pressure with the regulator hose off. Alternately you can...

    Need some tips on a fluctuating a/f ratio

    Not only is this incorrect but it makes no sense for the reason already mentioned.

    Need some tips on a fluctuating a/f ratio

    Got it. I thought the power up thing caused a 24 based on a past discussion with another member who was trying to resolve it. My bad. Not sure what the problem could be but fwiw the mixture on a stock system with the sensor unplugged should go to about .9 lambda. Slightly rich. Every Supra...

    Need some tips on a fluctuating a/f ratio

    From reading other threads I thought code 24 is normal with a Maft Pro but 41 is not. I may be wrong though.

    failed smog. check it out!

    Well yea, both blacks are the heater but one is 12 volts while the oher is ground supplied by the ECU. If both were 12 volts no current would flow and the thing wouldn't work...

    Condensate in oil

    Gotta cover my ass ;) It is my opinion BG in general makes quality products. I won't claim this particular one is applicable to the situation but from what I've heard it's a good cleaner. It certainly won't hurt anything. That said, even though BG stuff is stronger than run-of-the-mill auto...

    Crank/Keyway problem. Please help

    There ya have it. In the article they used the carbon key to fill what was still serviceable of the way and keep the shape while they welded around it but there's no reason the other approach couldn't be used. May even have to be done if things are badly chewed up.

    failed smog. check it out!

    Reading that gave me a headache but if the thing doesn't pass TSRM muster it should be replaced. I still doubt it's behind the HC though. If you want to know for sure and after you're done checking everything get a pre test done with the EVAP system disconnected. Any smog station will do that...

    Crank/Keyway problem. Please help

    I'll try and find my copy but since it's been a while I can't make any promises. The process is what was stated though. Fabricate carbon key, filler added, finish to fit, replace key with new, install dampener Well, they did it and as an weldor myself I don't see any real obstacles. The...

    Crank/Keyway problem. Please help

    Don't do that. A recent issue of Machinist's Magazine detailed this exact repair. It was even a Toyota. The repair involved welding (something others have done) by fabricating a carbon key, adding filler metal, and finishing to fit. The results were excellent.

    failed smog. check it out!

    That all sounds normal to me. The canister is unlikely to be the cause of excessive HC unless a fair amount of liquid fuel got into it. In that case desorption involves pumping on it while heated (like what the engine does but stronger), putting the thing in a vacuum oven, or extended purging...

    Can the power steering pumps front seal be replaced without removing the shaft?

    Never done this one but on stubborn lip seals I drill a couple of small holes in the housing opposite each other, screw in self tappers, and pull the thing out.
