Since bringing it home we've gone through a lot of different parts. Parts replaced include: Front and rear brake hardware. MR2 break upgrade O...

Re: Turbo 4age tercel

update: been trying so hard to get the car tuned. Initially i was having really bad issues with sharp lean AFR spikes as soon as boost rolled in, then it turned to the engine randomly losing fuel pressure while casually driving.

Funny you mention that because I randomly thought about this a few days ago and wonder if he is JDNightFox on here. JDNightFox used to have a profile pic that looked like JayJay Idingo's dog mask thing. ...

Re: Turbo 4age tercel

Finally. Flywheel is back and installed. The reason the machine shop took so long with it is cause I dropped it off right before they fired a long timer engineer, and the guy had like a 3 month back log of work the shop had to catch up on. I also took it to a driveshaft shop to get it balanced. They...

I’m currently searching for a water pump, however I’m not having any luck with my local parts suppliers. Any online recommendations? is your water pump pulley ...

Re: Oxygen sensor ?

What is the "slight hiccup" at idle, can you be more specific? I definitely agree with SirFoxx re: tempering expectations of an old carb'd engine. So if by hiccup you mean sometimes it idles at 600 instead of 800 rpm, I'd say that's just fine. But if you mean it sometimes runs rough or al...
