Accordian hose was replaced with the silicone alternate from driftmotion. Ive double checked that the vac hose on the bottom is attached :(

Thats why I included 'possible' ;) Im pretty much out of ideas. Lol

Thank you jetjock, when I get the car back I'm gonna do that test. Rollus, yes with e1/te1 shorted. The motor is making about 18 inhg at idle, could there still be a vac leak? I know that producing propane around the motor and it getting rich would suggest a vac leak, but all lines are new and...

Totally agree that it happens. My second mechanic was much better, just didn't have a ton of experience with supras, he worked on the car for 8 hours and only charged me for 2.5 because he felt bad that he couldn't get it going for me. Also I never claimed that either mech was my friend lol Id...

How can I go about that? Tsrm? Could you link me or give me a brief description of what I need to do? Obviously it's preferable for me to be able to test it before I dive into dropping the tank and replacing the fuel pump. Machine shop is shit. Used to be good. My buddy worked there for years...

Well I guess I'll start with a walbro pump and a new filter. It is the original pump so I could see that being the issue. Thanks for your insight, man. Big help.

http://www.xsboostturbochargers.com/products/billet-turbocharger-compressor-wheel-toyota-supra-ct26/ That is the billet wheel instaled in the turbo. The no load is what I find strange as well. Fuel pressure ruled out by checking pressure at the rail, it was 45psi. The machine shop claims...

My apologies, forgot to mention it. Only modifications that the motor has are that billet compressor wheel, arp studs, metal headgasket, shimmed oil pump with aftermarket remote cooler setup, silicone intake (replaced accordian hose), and a k&n fipc. All else is bone stock.

Hey guys, Little update here. The car has now gone from my mechanic back to the machine shop as they have a service department as well. They claim the timing is infact bang on... They also mentioned that exposing propane to the throttlebody area makes the car rev freely and smoothly, no...

This is what I am thinking. Just want a communal majority opinion that it is the possible culprit.

I do. However I am no expert. Just self-taught. I pulled the motor and disassembled it myself. I had the machine shop do the machining work and rebuild it into a longblock. Then I reassembled the rest of the motor and installed it into the car, I got the motor running, and tried to figure out...

As I mentioned, no codes being thrown. My mechanic checked all sensors and they are all working properly. Plugs are brand new and were gapped properly. Wires are in correct cylinder positions. We have ruled out the basics, that is for sure. Timing is also properly set to 10* btdc. Been...

Hey guys, Over the past few months I have been battling a problem with my freshly rebuilt 7m. The motor will not rev past 3500rpm. When you get to 3500, and open the throttle more, the motor bogs and you hear the occasional pop from the intake. Idle is perfect, vacuum is strong, all sensors...

Back again guys, I had an extremely reputable toyota mechanic come to check out the car and see if he could diagnose the problem. He figured based on what he could hear, that the turbo isnt spooling, and is most likely due to the wastegate being stuck open a hair. I could see this being true as...

car wasn't throwing codes at the time of post but i checked again today after checking out the AFM and its not throwing 24 and 31, I assume one is because I ran the car without the AFM for a minute or so

Any tips for cleaning AFM? I've heard to use electrical contact cleaner as opposed to sensor cleaner as it can coat certain parts in a film? Should I take it completely apart or just out of the car?

So with the tps set to where it deflects at .7mm, it should be good to go? Will it make a huge difference if it does not have the EXACT values that the tsrm had per difference sized feeler gauges? If so I can cross that off of my list and try something else, MAF? Edit: roger, will look into...

Hey guys, My freshly rebuilt 7m is idling perfectly, and revs up to 3k quite nicely but when 3k hits, it feels like the motor hits a wall, it stops revving and if I try to give more gas I get the occasional popping sound out of the intake. I have ensured base timing is set to 10* while car is...

Hey guys, I found that my stock 7mgte injector clips are broken and are not feeding a signal to the injectors, causing the car to run rough and only on a couple of cylinders. Can anyone confirm that 7mgte injector clips are the same as corolla clips in the same year? Upgrading to 550cc...

Hey boys, So I posted a few days ago about having trouble getting my 7m started, ended up getting it to run. However at idle, the car sounds rather weak. And when i open the throttle, it doesn't rev.. It actually does the opposite and bogs. Im no expert but im suspecting tps? Also I'll throw...
