ILCYID: How about all the other valves that failed here? Were they from cars that had 270K miles? How about this guy's valve? How about mine that recently failed at 135K? You think my car hasn't been maintained? That's why it's called a pattern failure. Even if what you said is true the chance...

And a junkyard part would never be aged like that would it? Btw I don't buy my parts from those thieves in Fremont. If you read the thread you'd know I paid $30 for a near identical new part. Indeed. First we have the OP who, based on this and his clutch thread, seems incapable of even amoeba...

Simply amazing. This forum is populated by some real morons...

Are you serious? Just connect them together. Btw this is not a part you want to get from the junkyard for what should be obvious reasons...

Hint: Try looking beyond Toyota. The valve itself without the actuator is used on other cars. Nearly identical and easy to fit. Around $30.

Did it smell like fish?

That's what I couldn't believe: you'd buy a new pump after proving the old one was fine. It's not gonna be the TPS either. You're right about one thing though: it's gonna be there till it's fixed ;)

What does the code description say? "Momentary interruption". That's why it runs. How do you know it's old? You no longer have the code? Even if that's the case it didn't happen by accident. Things don't fix themselves you know....they only get worse as time goes by. Not to mention your...

The code 11 is not beside the point. How can you expect the engine to run right when power to the ECU is being lost? Is it me or is this common sense?

Yeah, doesn't apply in that case. I was assuming you had the Supra tested. Before you go in borrow a Magnehelic from the guys at work, bust loose the line at the EVAP cannister and put, I dunno, say 30 or so inches H20 in there. If it holds you're good. A slack tube will also work. Cheap enough...

I wouldn't feel too sorry for him. Guys I know who buy new cars and store them as potential investments can afford to drive pretty much anything they want while the others sit...

Became effective December 1 of last: http://tinyurl.com/2h92l8 You got lucky I guess ;)

Bosch frequency valve with feedback...

Only # 26? ;) It's simple. The stock fuel system is sealed to prevent evaporated hydrocarbons from leaking out. That means two problems must be dealt with: 1) As fuel is drawn out of the tank air must come in to prevent fuel starvation and keep the atmosphere from crushing the tank. That air...

You're right. The dashpot is an emissions device. It eases the throttle plate closed the last little bit to allow some air through. Without that air the fuel that got left behind when you came off the throttle would cause a spike in HC. There's supposed to be a delay valve in the hose before...

There's a 2 psi valve in it that keeps the tank at that pressure. The manuals say it's there to prevent fuel pump cavitation. Well duh. The evaporative control system has nothing to do with tailpipe emissions...

Well, as Cuel pointed out your picture shows the resistor. What you seem to be missing is the relay. Not a good thing because under high load the engine may not be receiving all the fuel it needs. It would depend on how things are wired.

More attractive like what? A statue of Buddha? The EVAP cannister is there to adsorb tank fuel vapor so it doesn't go out into the environment. If you remove it (a pox on you) be sure to vent the tank somehow and cap off the port on the throttle body. Unrelated but both the guys in your...

Thanks for that. I was wondering which of us (him or I) was going blind there for a minute...

You're crazy. That 0w stuff is way too thin! ;)
