No, it should stay. It's way too revealing. Entertaining too. The fat kid is just killing me....quite the legal eagle he is. I hope he's not planning on quitting his day job...

Lol. Anyone else? Get in while the gettin's good ;)

Nice try but I'm not going to get sucked into arguing with some snot-nosed kid. Your chubby little buddy is what he is. Get over it. As for our med student you must be joking. I'll let him treat me when he adds spelling to those left nut skills. Makes me wonder when they started letting...

How are you sure this buddy of yours is so good? Since by your own admission you don't possess the skills to make a valid determination it's easy to be fooled. Happens all the time to people. Free is no bargain if he mucks it up, and if he doesn't know 7Ms there's a chance he will.

Are the shims not hardened? Anyone? Bueller? If so the stock (it'd be round stock btw) couldn't be run of the mill (pardon the pun) and the shims would have to be ground. Not as easy as it first appears.

Are you referring to me? If so I got me a two-fer. I must be on a roll. You gotta be kidding. I can absolutely assure you there was never a time in my life when I owned 6 of anything and didn't know a lot more about them than the level we're talking about. I'm willing to bet the same would be...

Gracias Jeff, you've save me from sweating over a hot lathe. I'll amble on down (I'm told that's what old guys are supposed to do, amble) to the dealer and verify it now that I know it can be had. Cryo: you try being strapped into a seat day after day while eating crap food and then get back to...

You have 6 Supras and....oh never mind. edit: CRE beat me ;)

...

Check for codes first (look for a 51) then drive it home without worry. Afterwards you can use one of your other 5 Supras or yank parts off it to fix this one. (Jeez, I'll probably get spanked for that now...)

Most only care if care about is the car starts. Me, I can't think like that. Too many years of "eyes guts to nose" why shit happens ;).

Ugly? Lol. Like many you don't get it: it's the internet. Means squat, zip, zero, nada ;)

Uh, and I'm supposed to feel what exactly? Sure, I'm the resident asshole. Kind of like it that way too. The management and others here are free to vote me off the island any time they like. Even the punk fat Asian kid gets a vote. I was trying to save you both work and cash (since you've...

It's always the simple stuff eh? It had to be the wiring since all your AFMs did the same thing. That's where I was going with it. Had the voltages been wrong the wiring would have been suspect. See, the diagnostic system in this computer isn't very smart. Generally speaking it sets a code only...

No, sorry. It's the nut on the short horizontal lead screw that drives the rear of the seat cushion up and down. It's the only nut associated with that function. White cylindrical part about 1.5 inches long and about 1 inch in diameter with the lead screw running through the center. It mounts in...

Jeez, I find it amazing you're in med school. Assuming you finish I hope you tell us where you're going to practice so I can stay as far away from there as possible. If Aaron wants to babysit your gluteus maximus fine but unless you stick a freaking jumper in the diag block between FP and B+...

This is a turbo car? Plug the thing in and measure the voltage between KS and ground with the key on engine off. It'll be pin 3, a light green wire with a red stripe. Then do it with the engine running. Also measure between VC and ground. That'll be pin 4, light blue wire with a red stripe...

Hey Jeff, while you're here a question. After 20 years something on my car finally broke. Put my fat ass in it the other day and the driver's rear seat bottom collapsed. Turns out the nut the power leadscrew runs through fractured at the midpoint. Looks to be a delrin or nylon piece. Since I...

Both place 12 volts on the pump full time. I still say he should test it by jumping the block. The way I check pumps is to put a current meter in place of the jumper. You can tell a lot about the health of a pump and it's circuit by doing that. Monitoring fuel pressure during a snap throttle...

Aaron has a point. It's the same as with a used TPS. Used is questionable. That said mine is 20 years old ago and zero problems but everything on my engine is corrosion free. It's a crap shoot depending where the car was driven, how it was maintained, on and on. I'd go new OEM if it tests out...
