    Air bag light

    Squib is a term applied to any small explosive device used to generate force. The squib is what deploys the airbag. You can run the diagnostics to find out where the problem lies but a light usually means there is a open connection in the plug, primary sensors, or safety sensor. For example the...

    Installing a Water Temp Sender

    This can be useful: http://tinyurl.com/297bg2 Or you can drill and tap the flat spot on the housing. FYI the sensor labeled "aux fan sensor" in the photo is wrong. It's the high temp AC cut out, properly called Water Temp Switch # 3. Goes on at 234 F. I use it for the temp alarm input to my...

    Crank, but no fire

    Good deal. Amazing what a little cold start/warm up enrichment will do ;)

    Constantly have air in my cooling system

    ^ That'll work although one problem with the method is the T stat may take a very long time to open if it does at all. In fact most Supras I've checked will idle for hours after a cold start without opening it.

    Constantly have air in my cooling system

    Sure you could but no angle is needed. Just leave the flush kit cap off it so the air has a place to escape. Some people fill through the kit and leave the radiator cap off instead. That said those things are not the best way to flush a system and they introduce another failure point. I'll...

    Constantly have air in my cooling system

    The overflow line must be tight all the way to the suction screen or air will be drawn into the system on cool down. A leaky upper seal on the radiator neck or a bad vacuum valve will also cause it. Course, you could have a leak anywhere in the system and air will be drawn in but in that case...

    Shotpeening rods

    What yeahdoug said. If that's hard to visualize just look at the bottom of any aerosol can, a perfect example of compressive residual stress.

    Crank, but no fire

    Me thinks you missed the point. Whenever the ECU sees a fault in the coolant sensor circuit it automatically substitutes a coolant temperature value of nearly 100 C. At the ambient you're having this is going to matter.

    Can someone please identify this part- Flush/Fill connector

    ;) Imho those flush kits are pretty useless. They're somewhat useful for initial cleaning of the system with chemicals but that's about it. After that there is no need for flushing, at least if maintenance is done right. They're just another cheap part failure point and there's already a...
