Considering caster is 7 degrees, which is a ton compared to most cars, then 7.5 on the later year, 0 isn't always what you are shooting for.

Apply vacuum from an external source, forcing the valve closed, and then dyno it to see if you get peak torque at 4800 rpm. I don't think it will with that simulated long runner. What, you don't want it to "kick in" sooner? ;)

My sarcastic comment wasn't too you. It was for the other comment. I had some documentation that showed 4500 rpm. Or so I thought. JJ has 4200 and 60% throttle. In addition, it defaults open at low speed and low throttle. That takes away cylinder pressure. Which will reduce NOx.

Looks nice. Stock and clean body FTW.

Don't you love how the heater valve only fails when its cold? Or that flash light batteries only die in the dark?

I bet that "kid" at Meineke knows a ton about steering axis inclination. I could be wrong, so you don't have to like the sarcastic comment. First step, you don't tell the service writer what is wrong. They will sell you the service you ask for, and are in the right to do so. With the age of...

Did you walk up to the service counter and say my car pulls right, diagnose and repair it? Or did you walk up and say you want an alignment done? Why Meineke? Your car does not get a front end alignment, it gets a 4 wheel. The most likely cause of a pull is a bad tire. Of course, worn...

Set it at 10.

Why don't you copy and past the tech information from Toyota explaining how retarding the TPS signal makes the valve open sooner? Opening the valve sooner will make the car accelerate slower at low engine speed.

You have no need to unhook your battery, unless you want to reset your clock and raido stations. If you want to erase codes and short term fuel trim, pull the EFI fuse for 30 seconds. What are the codes?

Air in the line. If air is going in, guess what is probably going out..

It is probably the starter, but I can't reach the small wire from here.

Maybe he is out of gas.

An easy informal check is to pull the vacuum line from the valve in the y section of the manifold. The actuator should move when the car is idiling. That removes the vacuum from the actuator, forcing the valve open on the inside. YOu can't see the valve move, but you can see the arm move. Do...

Higher volume, not necessarly pressure. The reading on the gauge will go up when you push more volume through the same displacement.

I don't understand the first question. If you don't have it at all, then you are running with out a cooler? Like many 7MGEs? I never liked the pressure relief cooler setup. I changed it for that reason alone, and put the filter where I found convient. I put the adapter on towing eye under the...

How will it blow up with out a J-tube? If you don't know, don't answer questions. Because clearly you don't know. The J-tube will richen the mixture, just the opposite of "blowing up" the engine. To answer his question, 550's and that massive Walboro is more than enough for 400 rwhp. You...

Wow, somebody planning ahead and playing it safe. Well done. You don't need even a 255 for 400 rwhp. But having extra head room is a very good thing.

:thumbup: Maybe people should start chopping their arms off, to clean up their body lines. You don't want that ugly appendage hanging there anyway.

Nice to see maintenance done on the car. Your problem will be back, unless you did something to the car and don't know it. None of those things affect the default of the solenoids. Then again, I haven't seen your car, and dont' know that you had a problem. The "shit" as you call it, is...
