Nice job ;) Fwiw wire coloring in the car (all Toyotas in fact) isn't random. It follows a specific coding and priority system. Once learned you can look at a wire anywhere in the car and know what it does right down to the system involved.

Probably because you moved the gas pedal quickly, with or without the engine running. That'll put the system in anti-squat. Either that or you were seeing the tail end of the self test where the system lights all three just after the key comes on. Anti-squat (brake pedal) couldn't have been...

Iwant: A little advice. Like most engineering students (and most newly minted engineers) you tend to over analyze things. Put another way since you don't have enough experience to grasp the intuitiveness of how things work you fall back on your training. That's to be expected but nevertheless is...

Sorry, but it's a dumb idea and for more than technical reasons. I don't want to be harsh because you seem like a thoughtful and intelligent guy who wants to learn but I detect in this thread the same approach I saw in your AC one: You want stuff to work right yet seem unwilling (or too poor) to...

I was being diplomatic. I actually think it's outright stupid...

Dumb idea. Not to mention completely unnecessary...

Lol. It's posts like these that keep me here :)

Finally. Maybe now he'll "get it"...

Nice. Sig worthy too. Wouldn't want anyone to forget what a class act you are...

A 7M will fast idle just fine at 14 psi. It's the pressure I use when cleaning the fuel injectors. The cleaning lasts longer doing it that way and it also forces the injectors open. OP: Think about it. If you pinched the line and pressure went to 55 what does that tell you about the pump and...

That's it. I give up...

^ From what he wrote the light flashes. OP: Instead of a jumper put a voltmeter across T and E1 in the diag block. Tell us what it reads. Or check ignition timing at hot idle. Or check Vf both at idle and off idle. Any of these tests will confirm whether the ECU is in diag mode (which it...

I won't get into this other than to say it's amazing how some people still possess the ignorant belief that excessive oil pressure, at any time, is a necessary or good thing.

Oh I don't doubt it's true. The funny part is you preach about having the "right cooling capacity" and advocate the Fluidyne (even claiming it "works well") then go on to conclusively demonstrate your cooling system has zero excess capacity. Forgive me for finding that humorous but come on, most...

The NOx/EGR advice wasn't that bad but some of the HC stuff was a different story. Anyway, check the things I said and let us know how it goes...

It was. Hell, I wish I had anti-roll. It'd keep me from falling out of this chair. Anti-squat would be nice too ;)

^ Yep. Function (relevant input device): 1) Anti-squat (TPS) 2) Anti-dive (brake lights, speed sensor) 3) Anti-roll (steering sensor) 4) High speed firm (speed sensor)

Three ways were in use well before the MKIII came along and yeah, oil contains some percentage of hydrocarbons ;)

That's some funny shit right there. Seriously...do you actually think about what you post?

Take the car to a licensed emissions tech because there's enough BS in this thread I'm not going to try and correct it...
