    what would be the problem....

    Maybe it'd help if you stopped referring to the car in the female vernacular ;) Seriously, don't drive until you get this resolved. Carefully examine the linkage, including the cruise control part. Try splitting the system up by disconnecting the link to the throttle body (it just pops off) and...

    Power antenna , took the thing appart

    Sorry Zum, missed this. What the guys said. Keep in mind when I said it works well in urban areas I meant an open urban environment, not concrete canyons. Multipath can be a bear in those places and that's what the diversity system was designed to eliminate. The same holds true to some extent in...

    Cold Start and Warm Up Idle Questions

    ^ Me too. Works well on the outside but a real cleaning involves flowing solvent through it or using ultrasonics, which is what I do. OP: Now that I read your first post again I doubt it's the coolant sensor because cold idle is high. I'm a bit curious as to why the ECU doesn't seem to be...

    Cold Start and Warm Up Idle Questions

    30F? Come on, it's Houston.... Yeah, that includes the CSI itself. You could get another one but it'd be better to pull out the one you have and see if it sprays. Or put a test light on the thermo time switch (TTS) connector or the CSI connector itself. If there's voltage there during cranking...

    Coil Pack Connection Burnt?

    Plasma generated O3 damage. Leaving it will only make things worse. Clean it up then forget about it. Rennat: The secondaries on these packs can't be ohmed. Btw wtf is going on out there? Chain anyone up lately? ;)

    No more TDS, best aftermarket system for the money?

    Any decent aftermarket alarm will have a starter disable output that can be wired in. Crimestopper's CS 2011RS is a good value at around $75. Or a CS 2016 with paging for a bit more. Both offer alarm with shock sensor, remote start, and keyless entry in a compact unit but you only need to wire...

    poor idle after warm restart

    Vapor would be readily apparent on the fuel gage when the symptoms are present. Have you looked? That said you really ought to fix the rest pressure problem. Rather than shooting from the hip why not do some diagnostics? It's a simple matter to watch the fuel gage or try clearing the fuel system...

    Cold Start and Warm Up Idle Questions

    Looks like a cold start enrichment problem alright. Either the CSI isn't working or the starting coil in the Circuit Opening Relay isn't coming on. Try jumpering B+ and FP (with the key on) for 10 seconds prior to a cold start. If the problem goes away check the STA circuit and COR. If the...

    O2 sensor wiring

    Blue on the sensor connects to white. The other two connect to each black on the sensor. The colors don't matter for them.

    How protective are you of your Supra?

    Wait, we have a point system? Damn ;) Zoom's interpretation is correct. Maybe I'm wrong but it seems to me anyone out of high school should have reached the same conclusion. Of course I carry liability. More than is required in fact. Rich guys like him probably carry the minimum...

    Can Charcoal or the Canister itself go bad?

    It can go bad in lots of ways. It can also usually be repaired, although with certain types of failures it's a crap shoot. The TRSM has the test procedure for the valving. If it's saturated PM me and I'll tell you how best to perform desorption.

    How protective are you of your Supra?

    Pretty much zero. It's a 21 year old car worth what, a few thousand bucks? It's not even insured. I've got bigger things to worry about...

    Piping bead rollers? Where to buy

    Meh, run a weld bead around the tubing. Not that I've ever done that ;)
