    Whacked Timing D:

    Yeah, as I've pointed out before when diag mode is entered the TCCS sets idle speed and disables ESA. Those things can't occur if IDL is open. It's why timing should not be attempted without first verifying a TPS code 51 is *not* present with the throttle closed. For those who remember it's...

    Engine Missing - results of all tests - Please Any Ideas!

    Since idle speed is ecu controlled the idle air bypass found on earlier throttle bodies should be fully seated (closed).

    Car alarm goes off randomly when I unlock the door.

    The cause of this almost always the cancel switch on the lock cylinder. It must bring the cancel input to ground *before* the switch in the solenoid/latch brings the trigger input to ground. And fwiw the actual opening of the door has nothing to do with triggering the alarm eg; the jamb switches...

    Power requirements for the Drivers seat

    Merci Monsieur. You'll need to power each motor with your meter set to the maximum amp scale and placed in series with either the positive or negative wire. That can be done using the two connectors on the seat: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=98 A pity...

    anyone expirienced a bad knock sensor?

    There is no connector labeled Nox. The signal can be checked at the ECU, which would be the correct place. A competent tech would already know this. My "uneducated opinion" has been offered here five years, some of it as the first and thus far only electrical and ecu subject matter expert. I...

    Why not measure them and see?

    anyone expirienced a bad knock sensor?

    I read your post moron, that's how I know your KS isn't involved. And hate away. I'm not here to make friends. Frankly I'm not all that impressed with lazy dimwits who're unwilling/unable to even read a schematic of the diag box. Guess that makes us even. The only difference is I won't be...

    Bogging on acceleration.

    Unfortunately you're being retarded again....

    bhg or bad rad cap?

    As mentioned it may take a day or two for any air in the system to be purge and the tank level to stabilize. Once it does you can adjust it to the proper level. I ran mine a couple of inches above the Full line. I'll again point out the system is designed to remain sealed and coolant added via...

    bhg or bad rad cap?

    When does it spike? On which side of the t-stat housing is the sending unit? If coolant isn't being returned to the radiator the overflow path isn't airtight or the upper seal on the cap is leaking. Or there's something wrong with the vacuum valve in the cap. Is it the weighted or spring...

    bhg or bad rad cap?

    You keep making this way more complicated than it needs to be. What exactly is the current problem? Btw all this talk about air in the system cracks me up. It wasn't that long ago cooling systems *had* to run air in them. They never had problems nor does it makes sense they would.

    Where do these attach to?

    ^ What he said. Check the bulb, 15 amp EFI fuse, and Gauge fuse. Verify power at BATT and IGSW (key on). Along with the manifold ground those are the only things needed to turn the main relay on and supply power to +B...which should illuminate the MIL. The dead MIL may have already been...

    Where do these attach to?

    As IJ said it's not a good thing. Does the MIL still come on with the key?

    anyone expirienced a bad knock sensor?

    No. And stop messing with the knock sensor. It has nothing to do with your problem.

    Whacked Timing D:

    That's true of stored codes but not the one code that doesn't get stored, if it's caused by the TPS. If that's the case timing cannot be set...

    Green Grease?

    Grease is little more than oil (the lubricant) and additives (usually EP solids in the form of moly et al) mixed with a thickener (the base). The website appears to go out of it's way to avoid disclosing what any of it is and instead relies on typical marketing hype like "synthetic polymer"...

    Increasing Idle A/C Performance?
