pre-89 FTW! I could have done without the music though.

Part out?

What does "welp" mean?

To be sure that there is no coolant/water/contaminants in the oil/oil pan... Oil is cheap, btw. A full rebuild is not.

You could possibly sell it, I'm not sure how that would work, though. you could definitely part it out though. Let us know how much you want for the car, and post pics. I might be interested in a non-running shell for cheap.

I don't think your valves need adjustment. If you saw exhaust coming out, then you need to replace the exhaust manifold gasket. The reason the tick went away and came back, is because the exhaust manifold stud will slowly pull out, and everytime you tighten the nuts, it makes it worse, until...

Condition sounds typical for an 87...I would be very worried about a BHG (Blown Head Gasket) though.

Check your exhaust manifold again...rev the engine while in the engine compartment, you should be able to see exhaust coming from the leak, if it's as bad as you say...or at least smell it. And yes, the stock injectors make a loud ticking sound, but the sound is quite different compared to...

Old sports cars are bottomless pits for money, Supra or not...

The rubber bands are the WORST. I couldn't wear them for very long, wearing them drove me insane, and I couldn't concentrate on anything. And no, I haven't been wearing my retainer, but my orthodontist said she was surprised at how they hadn't drifted very much at all. :D

That's a really nice looking Supra. Don't sell it just yet, it should be pretty easy to get it started once you figure out what the problem is. Check your code, and you will know. BTW, if you want to make it reliable, replace EVERYTHING with dealer parts.

Just make sure you plug all of the oil passages, and flush the oil at least twice before you start the car...then once it is started, only run it for a minute, then change oil again. If it were me, I would do three times. :biglaugh:

What are you trying to do boostin89?

CRACK?? LOL...that's just how reflective Zaino makes everything.

Hey, when did you get that badge?!?!

LMFAO!

Oh no...that's more **** than I can handle. :naughty: Jesus, Matt those wheels are incredible.

I know this thread is really old, but are you saying the 89+ subframes are much stronger than the pre-89 ones, jonez? This is what I discovered today, after looking for the cause of the "squeaking" sounds I have been hearing for the last couple of weeks: Does this look like it was caused...
