    Time for spark plugs.. what should I get?

    Bosch's aren't too bad if used in an NA...like we have them in our BMW, and I put them in my NA Supra, and it seemed to be OKAY...but not perfect. In the BMW, I could not tell a difference in idle quality after the new plugs were put in, so maybe that's bad...

    How Many Daily Drivers?

    My 87T is my DD, not by choice though... When I first got it (noob), it was the most unreliable POS on the road, I must have push started the thing BY MYSELF like 8 times in my high school parking lot after school, with everyone staring at me like I was insane. Then, I slowly started replacing...

    Taking engine out, last questions

    I don't know, I guess it's possible to flush the engine...but how can you be sure there aren't particles lodged somewhere you can't see? Also, it would take a lot of oil...

    Wrecked cars...

    Why do you say that? I couldn't sell it w/out tails (buyer was planning on driving it) and my Turbo hadn't been burned yet...so I had no reason to keep the anywy.

    Taking engine out, last questions

    Well, a crank can be re-used after it has experienced RK, but only if it was caught early enough, before any real damage is done. In your case, I don't think it is fine, especially if you say there is NO bearing at all anymore. There was a bearing there, they don't just disappear. I would...

    Need help!

    The alarm system will only stop the starter from cranking, correct? And your starter is cranking...so i am guessing that isn't the problem. My money is on the wiring to something somewhere being messed up. Test the starter circuit, as well as the ignition circuit...sorry, that's all the...

    Need help!

    It HAS to be something with the CPS wiring...Maybe test the ignitor? Check every wire, and clean every connector you can.

    mysterious waterfall in the dash

    Just because you burped the system, doesn't mean you got all the air out. I had this problem for a few weeks, and I thought for sure I had a BHG, but it turned out, there was air trapped in the heater core...and it was dislodged after a long drive, where all of the air collected at the rop of...

    WTF is Bitron 4 Real?

    I'm guessing the Tercel's engine seized going back up that hill, and that's why the video was cut short? j/k:biglaugh: But seriously, why was the tape cut?

    To tint, or not to tint, that is the question

    IMO, those tails don't look all that great... I would leave it just as it is...why mess with perfection?? :love: But if you must, just go JDM.
