I have had material welded into the keyway before, no problems. We welded up some material into the 'smoothed' side, then used a die grinder to cut the wall vertical again. It made a VERY strong weld, and held up perfectly. The best part, of course, is you don't have to remove the crank or the...
Verify that that spark valley is completely clean. If there is any oil/ water in there, the plug wire will ground/ spark to the cylinder head, instead of the spark plug. HTH
Honestly, it sounds like the timing is waay off, and that with the EFI fuse in, it's creatin cumbustion that works against the engine's normal rotation, and that would explain why it cranks easier without the EFI fuse in. As for how this happened, I only have one possible explanation: The CPS is...
Those are the pistons I bought for a cheap rebuild- Don't have them in yet, so I can't say about them.
PS- The top is anodized. Don't know how well it holds up, but I was reading on a couple of sites that some manufacturers do this to reduce the effects of detonation. I guess it reduces some of...

The large end is too large, and I had to tighten down the zip tie to keep it on.
I dunno if it's the wrong part altogether, or if it's for a different year.
"and pay no attention to my wifes bright ass pink neons in the one pic.... thats the car i have to drive until i get another supra.."
Yeah, but WHY are the neons on???
Well, It looks like both sides are different:
The part numbers
The top of each

Hopefully, I'll get to replace all the tie rods and these boots this week.
I tried a search for steering boots, but not much luck.
I Googled all over the place for a boot kit, but I couldn't find much there, either. Just wondering:
Does anyone know of a place other than dealer ($75 a pair!) that would have these? The usual auto parts stores didn't have them...
