Got the supra to turn over today...

Just seeing how the rest of this car was taken care of, I am making a WAG and saying that it may not have been well cared for much of its life. What do stock headbolts look like? As far as I can tell, the ones in this head are black and look like they might have a hex opening in the top. I haven't been able to get one cleaned off enough to tell exactly what they look like. Anybody have a picture of the original head bolts for my comparison? Thanks again for the help.

Okay, I got everything back on and started her up. Nothing!!!! I believe that the fuel pump is toast. She ran using starting fluid, but not very well. There is plenty of gas, four gallons or so I just put in. I haven't pulled a fuel line, but I believe that there won't be anything there when I do. How hard is it to change the fuel pump. Is it like every other toyota I have owned and just pull the inspection cover and yank out the old and put in the new? Do I have to drop the tank.

Also, where does this tube go. I can't find any logical place, so I must be missing something. Here is a couple of pics of the tube in question.

Thanks for helping out!!!

that hose connects to your ISCV which i circled in red. Theres a big nipple on it.

BTW make damn sure that your fuel pump is the cause of the issue before you replace it, its expensive and a lot of work (you have to pull the tank) and youd be pissed if you replaced it and it didnt make it work.

I figured that I would have to drop the tank. I am pretty sure that it is the fuel pump I will have to pull a fuel line to make sure. The last time I did that there was no fuel at the rail and there was fuel in the tank. Does the ICSV have two hoses running to it? I ask because there is already one attached to it. I will have a quick look see at lunch.

Thanks
