I have not retorque the head. I will get on that starting tonight. As soon as I fix the faulty injector and have everything else done I will report back and let you know the outcome. I appreciate the help.

IJ thank you for the response, I appreciate it. There's gas coming out of the motor on the turbo side. I can't tell if its coming directly from where the head and the block meet but its in that area. Would a stuck injector cause enough pressure to do this? I would have not considered a mating...

hello Everyone, I just finished a rebuild on my 7M a few months back. The motor has about 4,000 miles on it currently. Current mods are; JE .020 pistons, 2.0 MHG, rebuilt head, new oil pump, water pump, timing belt, freeze plugs, ARP Studs torqued to 90ft lbs, 57 trim CT-26, DDP, APEXI NEO...

sidewinder yes it runs normal now. Thank you.

I run the DDP non recirculated and I live in Cali. I don't really have much problems but then again I don't really step on it for it to be really noisy. I've driven right next to cops a few different times and as long as I am not going crazy they don't even look twice. The only problem I have...

so just to give an update for those that are wondering and for those that looked around. I tested the connection on both sides of the alt fuse and one side read +12V and the other read a little bit less. What I did notice was that after I rebolted the fuse back up one of my bolts for the fuse...

I was not aware that there was a fusible link as well, I see the reference on the TSRM but the actual link I am unsure of where it is located. You mentioned "the base of the ALT fuse is immediately after the fuseable link.." the ALT fuse goes bolted to two wires that go to the body harness...

Dan thanks for the advice. I have a 7MGTE, my apologies for not specifying that earlier. where the fusible link goes on the turbo model there is an ALT fuse which has been replaced. Is this what you were refering to? I tested my battery voltage and it is at a steady 11.5volts.

Hello Everyone, I have been trying to do some research to see if I can figure this problem out without posting but have had no success. I was retorquing my head since the motor was freshly rebuilt a few months ago. I made the mistake of not disconnecting the battery, I know bad move, and...

are you looking for just the stock 7MGTE AFM or the upgraded LEXUS AFM? I have a STOCK one if you want it.

Code 13 is RPM signal per the TSRM, it would be dealing with your CPS signal. Check the wires around the CPS to make sure they are not loose or brittle and need replacement. Code 52 is a knock sensor code. This code normally means the wiring for the knock sensors is bad. I am not sure if...

3p thank you for the heads up on that and the lesson. I just got back from working on the car once again and you are correct. I installed the pulsation dampener back on the car and my lean spots disappeared. The miss sounds like it is still there but it is not as prominent, I will know more when...

forgive my negligence but how would the fuel dampener adjust the lean spots on the power range? I am not saying you would be wrong just trying to understand the correlation between the two. I also checked my TPS tonight and it is within specs per the TSRM, and also checked the ISC Valve. when i...

thank you jetjock for chiming in I appreciate it.

hello Everyone, I have been searching around the forum to get a few questions answered since my car is running odd and cannot seem to find some answer. Hopefull I can get pointed in the right direction to fix some issues I am having. I am throwing a code 42 which is the Vehicle Speed Sensor...

tracking says It will be delivered today. I will let you know when i get home tonight.

Thank you CyFI6 i appreciate the resonse. The machine shop didn't have the right tool or didn't want to do it. I asked them to take care of it but they didn't want to do it. Therefore I am not dealing with them anymore in regards to that matter. Everybody else the person helping me assemble...

The machine shop didn't do it for a few reasons. The bearings come from Toyota in only one size, the situation is that once the bearings are installed then the clearance is too tight, HVYMAN what you are saying is that once you install the bearings the shaft should go in with no problem? WITHOUT...

Hello Everyone, I am in the process of building my 7MGTE and my machine shop hot tanked the block. I just replaced the freeze plugs and will be replacing the oil shaft bearings. My question is what can i use to shim the bearings? Once the bearings are pressed in the clearances are out of spec...

Hello Everyone, I am currently rebuilding my long block. My machine shop hot tanked the block and because of this I am replacing my freeze plugs and oil shaft bearings. My question is how do we shim the bearings for the oil shaft? Per my measurements the clearance is too tight once pressed...
