It sounds like the bushngs are bad inside of the CPS allowing the shaft to wobble. This would increase or decrease the air gap between the pickups. Have to swap the CPS to verify.

HAHA this is what happens when you change careers. I'm in the regulatory field now and regulations are very specific.

According to the manual that I had the CPS was supposed to read between 140 and 180. One lead read 148 and the other two read in the 200's. That's why I was asking about them being bad because I know there is some inconsistencies in the manual. So I have an 88, do they need to have one with less...

Ok so I received 2 CPSs today. 1 was supposed to be a known good and the other was unknown. I checked them both and all the pins read 230 or greater on the ohm scale. According to the TSRM they are supposed to be 140-180 ohms. So that means they are bad correct? I know its a simple question, but...

I had two Supras that were around 135-140,000 miles on each of them and I ran Redline throughout both cars with no issues. But someone did say that with a high mileage Supra, Redline caused a chatter and the Ford oil did not. At 160,000 I would probably go with the Ford stuff.

Booyah ,man you guys are awesome.

It just seems odd that they would design a plug that was forced into a 90 degree position with no way to pull the electrical connection off without having to take the bracket off. JJ do you know of a picture that someone took of the thermostat area and superimposed arrows and identifying labels...

The power steering bracket appears to be to close to this sensor. I'm not sure if the sensor is wrong or the wiring is wrong or the bracket is the wrong bracket. This is a 7MGTE. Some nice pictures of other engines would help out immensely. Or if anyone finds themselves in the Surprise area...

OK so car just became a long term project. As I was checking the CPS, I was verifying the pick ups and two out of the three were over the allowable limit. So I thought to myself "self turn the engine over to make sure the values don't change". Well when I put a ratchet on the crank pulley bolt I...

I'm with you JJ I think it has something to do with the CPS so I am going to concentrate on that today. I did find a used one for 100 bucks if it turns out to be bad. Is that a reasonable price?

I verified that there wasn't a code 51 present. I switched the car on and then jumpered the diag pins. No 51 present. I then slightly pressed the gas pedal and it appeared. it disappeared when I released the pedal. I then f'ed up and tried to start it with the pins still in place and it wouldn't...

Can you detail specific application things like what type of headers if any, motor mounts, throttle cables. Were you able to keep ac?

An injector is an injector. It doesn't matter what its installed in. If it matches mechanically (fitment into the head and into the fuel rail and mounting)and electrically (low or hi impedance and uses the same voltage values) it will work as long as you have a way to control it.

Roger that JJ, I'm out of town for the week so I will check this when I get back.

Picked up my coils and ordered new wires yesterday. Sucks I have to travel this week. I can't wait to get back and put these on.

So I checked the values of the TPS with the ones in the manual. I was able to adjust to get right in the middle of all the values at fully closed and fully open although the one where you use a feeler gauge I never really understood. Maybe because I can't read what the note says. So after that I...

Thanks Indi - AM3 couldn't find that vendor, Ill look again though....

So using the page you sent me it looks like the top two pins are the ones I am supposed to be using, however on the link I posted it is showing the bottom two since this is a GTE. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=101 I will try the fuel cut thing tonight...

I have the Walbro already installed and want to start checking and tuning the car. Who makes a bolt in kit?
