Here's the common failure point. If you'd rather not replace yours any time soon I'd recommend beefing up the jumper. 14ga copper wire would work very well and provide enough overhead to account for premature aging due to excessive moisture. ;) Although just doubling up the jumper and adding a...
Thanks for thinking of us!
But I think you've already summed it up nicely. ;)
They're rare cars here in Denver, but I'd never pay more than $300 for an N/A with rust, that's been in an accident, and who's previous owner has already proven to be WAY beyond clueless. Oh wait, I already...
Uh, you only need to spend 2 minutes swapping a couple resistors. Save the money for something else. If you can't find the details I'll post them later.
I don't know that it's worth any time... I just figured I'd post up a little info for all the cheap people. ;)
Wow, fast cars and slow people... I sure hope you're joking. :3d_frown:
What makes you think it's the rings? How precisely did you test the compression? What was the compression from each cylinder? (1 - 6) Then what was it with a little motor oil poured in each cylinder? Are the cams and crank all set properly to 0º?
The majority of the connections in the diagnostic block are test points which intercept ECU signals (E1, OX1, OX2 TE1, VF1, +B, FP), others include the ECT system (the TT contact), TEMS (TS)... See the TEWD for more info...
Yeah, their manual is rather odd in that area. I supposed I'll leave it as is (at least for now) and we'll leave the other methods for the forums and writeups.
Anything else I need to address?
Thanks.
EDIT:
For the N/A owners there are new diagrams posted in the N/A writeup...
The GTE doesn't have the ACIS system. It's specific to some of Toyota's N/A's and not terribly unlike Honda's V-tec. The Cressida's N/A 7M-GE doesn't have it either (among a couple smaller differences) and that engine makes less power than the MKIII's 7M-GE.
I'm not saying that you're looking...
The worst case of rust inside of a block that had been sitting that I've seen was inside the bores, beneath the pistons. The pan was left on and the condensation just kept eating away at it. It had been mostly drained, but that's not always enough
