What is this?

SilenceboneSupra · 02-13-2008, 08:22 AM

Hi, recently i let my brother do the replacing of the radiator with a new one where he hit the By Pass Pipe and broke it of

now in the picture you see a red circle and i wanted to know the name of that thing there, it is a nut that hold the By Pass Pipe which i tried getting off and broke it.

I need the name of it to order a new one. I went to around town but none of the "professionally" mechanics didn kno the name of it.......
after a huge strugle with the other broken piece still in place i managed to get it out but i need a new one.....
Does anybody know the name of it???
in the pic below you see what i mean , i couldn find the name of it in manuals, the pic is little.....
thanks

Is it in this pic?

16921 maybe?

Its for the heater hose to bypass the thermostat, otherwise the cooler water from the heater might close the thermostat and cause the engine to overheat when the heater is on. Older 22r engines had that problem until a new thermostat was designed for them.

well that pic helped!! its the 16281E on the pic, only the 7mge engine's have those not the 7mgte. now is that number the partnumber? I need one asap. dont like going to work in the bus.

Nope, click the 16281e and it will take you to the part number. Also gives a list price.

Electronics Parts Catalog

Make sure yours was produced between 1/86 - 5/93, otherwise it might be different, but I bet that's the one you need.

Why didn't you ask the dealership?????
The parts guys are trained to find you the right part and if you didn't give them your vin # you'll be lucky if it is the right one.

You need a how to supra guide for special people.

i took the whole thing out completely with sensors attached to it and went to the dealership, the problem was they didn had that in stock and on the web was like 20 dollar cheaper

wanted to add!
my car does not have the plate where the VIN number is, either its lost or they removed it, i had looked everywhere in and out the car for it but nothing
