That's good news - didn't you end up with a BHG and Hail damage last season?

Without having two cars, how could I guarantee I can make it to meets? :icon_razz

I will be there, no doubt. I'll probably have the roommate bring my spare Supra. :icon_bigg

Done and done - the pulley is off, and I cleaned off everything up front. Time to replace those seals...

Crank pulley bolt is off! That tool worked perfectly. Now I can't get the pulley off even though the bolt is gone. Gah!

Well, I started pulling apart the front of the engine today, and HORRORS! The timing belt was nearly slipping of the front of the cam gears, and the timing belt idler pulley was wobbling loose, and its bolt was finger tight. The only thing holding it in place was the plastic timing belt cover...

Man I wish I had the time to get around to doing my front oil seals - what's the trick you use to get the crank pulley on/off? I'm afraid to crank on it with the auto sitting it park. The TSRM of course says to use a special tool, but there's another way I'm sure!

Good to know - I am no longer interested in those rims!

Plan on selling those wheels/tires?

Oh man, you started without me! I got the seals from Toyota just the other day, but it's been way too cold out here to start working on the car.

Holy crap Steve, you are a machine!

Oops, proofreading is my enemy. I used the wrong term, "shielding" is more appropriate. There is a shielded wire wrapped in more copper wires which is then shielded again. The entire outer layer has been cut off. I will get pictures next time I'm in Stillwater....

I checked over both sides, and they both seemed totally fine? The terminals are super clean, and I cleaned and re-connected the connections to the terminals. My dome light and such don't function at all now, regardless of what I do, no sparks when I connect the terminals even. Would the stripped...

I will be looking into this problem further once I'm back home near the car. The big trouble is that after the first "click" first trying to turn it on, there's nothing. After the first click, it's as if there is no battery connected no matter what I do.

I'll make sure to grab those seals today - I may pass on the cam seals though, the leak is lower down in the engine. I may take you up on the offer to give a hand helping with your seals - if you volunteer your garage heater when I do mine. :icon_bigg

Well, I do know that at some point Sean stripped down the insulation around the wiring for the positive side of the cable, I thought that may be it but I don't really know how to go about troubleshooting it, and it had worked as it is last winter when I parked it. I would be surprised if it was...

So...yearly update? I haven't posted anything here in awhile. Maybe I should get around to doing that now that I have a second Supra. I went down to the cities to get the white car today, and I had trouble. I popped in the battery (inside charging all winter), and I hopped in to fire it up. All...

Project snowbank? I might have a picture with more snow than my sig now has. I really do need to update my build thread....

To ride in Sean's car was a "full-body" experience. :icon_razz

That car is long gone. It was sold long ago, and has already been found in a junkyard:
