    Too much torque?

    Do you smoke ganja or something? Or whatever it is called? Torque is a function of displacement. And yes, bore and stroke affect it, as well as cam timing and manifold design. But displacement is the main ingridient. A 7M naturally aspirated is good for 185Lb/ft, and the 2JZ is good for 220, if...

    Bad Fan Clutch?

    Has it always been this way? If it is locked up, it will remain noisy, and yes, cause excessive parasitic draw. At least you will have air flow. :)

    Where to buy the accordian hose

    Ebay, new in box Toyota piece, $35.00. I don't know who they are, but they are buying them from whomever Toyota buys them from. Or it is the manufacturer, and Toyota doesn't know.

    Not sarcasm. He said he may need an ECU, so I am pointing that most do not.

    Testing VF,confusing results...

    I believe the book was written by a translator, not the engineer. Or the engineer's english was very bad. There are small but important technical errors here and there in all of them.

    injectors wont open

    So if that is the case, how is a code 11 set with no power to the ECU? He said the only change is the engine swap, now it doesn't run. Yet he did all the wiring correctly. :nono:

    The Luxocruiser 3650 lb sled thread

    Not much today. When I pulled the exhaust manifold, I didn't like all the rust on the studs. Thanks rust belt states. But that wasn't the real problem. This was. You know, whatever you do, don't do it right the first time. I won't do a helicoil. I might just tap the hole to an 11, and...

    injectors wont open

    You have made statements in direct contention with each other. It is the cletus sensor that shuts down injectors. If you know how it works, then what are you asking? No sensor shuts off injectors, as you are describing. If the cam position sensor gives rpm and engine postion, fuel and spark...

    injectors wont open

    Power is constant when the EFI circuit is operating correctly. The ECU grounds the injectors in groups of two to fire them. Check power first, it is easy. Are you sure the system is wired correctly? Including the circuit opening relay?

    China wouldn't have all that manufacturing if more Americans thought that taking half of somebodies income was fair and just.

    The ds is attached to the output of the trans, so that very well could be the cause.
