1986 1st Supra Running Poorly

Thats the ks with the red seal. It was probably forgotten when the mani was refitted, i'd pull the thing and reconnect (drain the coolant as it runs thru the mani, also fit new mani gasket for the same reason).

Oh by the way, the cx is a eurosport (ec)! It just soldiers on, all ive done is oil, tyres, cables etc.
Oh and one time the temp gauge was running in the red for 2 weeks or so, i thought it was the gauge regulator which is a common thing, except when i opened the rad to change antifreeze it was dry! (never found the cause, no leaks) So yeah they are tough motors with a capital T!
