| Thanks Cliff but my Supra drives on it's own steam. I would just have to advance the timing back to where it was to come to Ft. Walton.
I am off tomorrow so I am gonna try fixing any and all vacuum leaks. I know of one vacuum line that is on the air intake after the MAF that I don't have a clue where it goes! I looked high and low for a good 10 minutes on 2 seperate occasions and ended up plugging it with a screw and a clamp. There are some vacuum lines I know need to be replaced so I'll try to take care of the obvious first.
Also, what is an AFM? I'm assuming you mean air fuel mixture. Or do you mean the mass air flow sensor? | |

| Nah I don't wanna drive it that far in the condition it's in. The front wheel bearings need to be replaced like yesterday and the speedo doesn't work. Which means I'd have to tailgate someone to Ft. Walton and hope they going some legal speed. It'll be alright. I'm sure as soon as I can get a multi-meter and start doing some digging on Supra Mania, I'll be ironing the kinks outta this car in no time. | |

| Trailer that bitch over here... I need to check if they are interchangable, but I have my old throttle body with the TPS on it for you... You can HAVE it... It works perfectly, because I was using it up until the day I took it off to swap for my 85mm throttle body... | |

| LOL, I ain't haulin my car all the way to Ft. Walton just to check the TPS. I am gonna check it in like 2 days as soon as I get the necessary equipment. Also, I sure appreciate you willing to give me both a TPS and throttle body. I know neither of those are cheap. I guess if nothing else if it comes down to it and I need to do that I will trade you my old ones just so I don't leave you empty handed.
I also shirked my chore of checking the vacuum lines today. Pretty much cause I know there are a couple and I actually can't afford to do anything about them until Friday anyway.
Pushing things even farther back is my sister's Cavalier which desided to take a crap on her 25 miles away from home. It's parked at a Tom Thumb in Ft. Walton with what I'm pretty sure is a crapping out fuel pump. We gotta tow it to one of our friend's house sometime this weekendish and then start tearing it apart. Actually I need to go find a Cavy forum and ask some people if that is one of those cars you can replace the fuel sending unit on without removing the tank.... probably not though. | |

| I'm pretty sure you got to remove the tank because the cavy i'm working on we had to. Even though they are different years I would think something like that might be the same because your sisters is like a 01 or something right? and the one i'm play'n with is a 95 sooo I dunno but i would think they would be the same....shoulda bought a honda because then you wouldn't have to drop the tank is under the back seat | |
