    A few oil related problems (Tapping)

    The lifters had crossed my mind, but I'm looking for advice on the leaks and reccomended methods to figure out what the tapping IS. The oil pan gasket is new and is spotless, the valve cover gasket is new and is spotless... ALL the gaskets are new. And all the gaskets that I can see with the...

    A few oil related problems (Tapping)

    Mobil 1 won't say, but it used to be. The Full Synthetic is supposed to be, but not the EP and the Clean lines. Who knows if it is now. The engine has a new stock radiator as well. So my oil pressure seems fine, but I still don't understand what the deal is with the tapping and the oil loss.

    A few oil related problems (Tapping)

    Hello all, I'm looking for some advice on a few things, but first a background on my car: 1988 NA/AT converted to Turbo 5SPD using a JDM 1990 7MGTE and JDM 1991 R154, with a remanufactured 1991 7MGTE/AT ECU and NEW wire harness. I have been running 4 quarts of Mobil 1 10-30 (Group 4) and 2...

    Code 34 + 31

    Okay, heres my thinking: if the Intake Temperature Sensor is the code I'm getting (31) then wouldn't that effect the way my car hits fuel cut? The purpose of the IAT is to measure how hot the air that's being sucked into the intake is therefore measuring in a way how dense the air is. If...

    Code 34 + 31

    Mostly does it when it's first spooling though, before the WG even opens, like between shifts. Could it be sticking open from the previous turbocharger pressure? I had the turbo out about 3k Miles ago, it was in good condition along with the WG. In response to your edit, I check my codes...

    Code 34 + 31

    Removing the WG shims doesn't solve the problem, it does it with or without. When it starts to spool up it hits code 34. The AFM sensor is clean and the housing is untouched. The IAT sensor is clean also. EDIT: My thinking is that they are related. A very reliable source has let me in on...

    Code 34 + 31

    Any solution other than throwing a new AFM at it? No it's not a boost leak I swear. The car will hit it at 7PSI and continue boosting to 10PSI like nothing happened, and it doesn't sluff off or anything, it boosts strong.

    i need a reliable site for a new engine???

    ASAPmotors.com. Sold me my engine at a high price, but it was well worth it. The cylinder walls still had the toyota machining marks on them. :)
