    Motorola phone

    Which is my understanding of T-mobile. If the clown can't deal with it tomorow, I will get rid of them. Yeah, it is a GSM, or whatever that is called. The 4 frequencies, including the US. According to Motorola. I will see if he can show me how to switch what it is reading. There isnt' a place in...

    BBK bias discussion

    It will "make" more heat. You stop by transfering forward motion into heat energy. You can not get rid of energy, only transfer to another form. Despite what Al Gore and other commies claim.

    Lexus AFM or GM Air meter

    It most certainly is not. KV can't even account for humidity, which effects density.

    Motorola phone

    I bought a Motorola 4 band unlocked outside the US. It did work everywhere. Except the US. It is the L7. Well, I went and picked up a local sim card for it. T-mobile. My wife said they suck, I don't really care. I will hardly use it. But with the sim card installed, the phone still says No...

    Lexus AFM or GM Air meter

    The purpose of the Lex meter is to slow the Hz from the meter, delaying fuel cut. KV is not more accurate. More accurate thant what GM requested from Hitachi, maybe. Draw through is more acccurate, the air is not yet compressed. Vent to atmosphere is like driving with a bad tune when it...

    The Trees strike back

    http://www.coloradodaily.com/news/2009/jun/15/downed-tree-closes-broadway-and-iris/ BOULDER, Colo. — Diana Barnett was driving on Broadway Monday afternoon with her 18-year-old daughter in the passenger’s seat, when she felt a blast of wind, saw a blur of green and heard a...

    Vacuum/Boost leak unable to find

    An evap smoker isn't exactly the best. If you have a small hole, it will be closed up until positive pressure is put in the intake. 18 inches of vacuum isn't actually that bad. So the hole is very small.

    The MkIII Photo Dictionary! Lets do it

    Nice site. That isn't what the Bible actually says. Turds like Benny Hinn, Jack Van Pimpe only say that so you send them your 10% that you don't actually owe them. Why can't the pictures be uploaded to Supramania Wiki? Since it recieves at least some financial backing. I have to pay for...

    91 supra totaled, fix it?

    Have you sent adjuster a PM yet? $4800 for your miles and condition is a whitewashing. Then again, you kept the car. My wife was hit from behind at a light by a Yukon a coule of years ago. They paid us $5900, with 125,000 miles. The shop didn't buy all new parts, and the bill ended up being...

    Fan clutch hardware

    It is a stud allright. I don't think I changed a fan clutch or waterpump at Toyota that wasn't.

    Vacuum/Boost leak unable to find

    Must be magic. Do you have a code 34? And you won't see a small leak without pressure.

    Fan clutch hardware

    I am a long way from my car, but would be suprised if it wasn't 8 x 1.25. From memory, the wrench is 12, making the stud 8. Very typical Toyota, most are the same.

    Slight issue with the A340E

    How do you get slipping or downshifting from that video? Both of those events would be an increase in engine speed. If it was the transmission, it would be like an upshift or the converter locking when it shouldn't. The engine is lugging, which could be an engine problem also. Do the same...

    Need help to find boost leak.

    Either you missed the pin hole in the intercooler piping/coupler, or the turbo produces more volume than TCCS will allow. That is making assumptions when you say everything else is right, such as the bypass screw length.

    If I ever get my hands on the bastard engineer...

    Sounds right. This, like everything else I have read on the MA70, seems to evade me. I have never seen it happen on one of my 5 Supras, or any Toyota when I worked there professionaly. Some time ago. What I have seen on Toyota, relating to what Cy said is the ears breaking off from gorillas...

    What is best Dual Tip, Or A single Can muffler?

    Dual pipes with mufflers under the car looks best. Since that isn't an option, two outlets flow more than one of the same size.

    rear tie rods

    Rear toe is in fact adjustable, just not with a rod that has adjustable length. Although that is not uncommon on cars without 4 wheel steering. They might actually mean the front. Or they told you front and rear and you got your own wires crossed. Hey, that happens if so. Those oblong...

    How did you replace your injectors?

    I didn't remove the plenum. I took off the throttle body, but left everything together. Don't pull apart more than you need to, it speeds up reassembly.
