If you are hearing a sloshing or girgglely noise behind the dash, thats one of the signs. mine kept blowing antifreeze out of the overflow, i pressure tested the system, it all checked out. eventually it went way bad, im in the process of replacing it right now, i think that the car will be awesome. eventually, right now i dont wanna look at it!

Mine is also blowing coolant out of the over flow but I think my thermostat is bad and the connector for the housing is also busted most likely creating back pressure causing me to loose coolant every week or so. I have new hoses on the way they are all bad.

Sorry its been so long guys iv had some really bad luck lately my feionce left me iv moved 3 times in the last month and the supra was in a wreck without the front plastics on and needs slight body work, and now it keeps blowing the EFI fuse when I turn the ignition switch to on. I unpluged the fuel pump and its still blowing the fuse. Anyone have any idea what it could be I'm having a hell of a time here. Ohh and I also foundout I bottomed out and crushed my exhaust pretty good so ill need that before too long also.

Ok so I found out that the headgasket has been blown sence I bought t. he car. The hose that I thought was leaking cooland onto the engine was only part of the problem the coolant is now leaking out of the side of the block on the left bank. I'm not going to put a new head gasket in an engine that has 238000 miles on it so does any one have any sugestions on an engine or a recomended engine dealer to get a new engine through?

Has any one delt with osoca or supra store engines? And also is there any reputable ebay stores that anyone has delt with? if worst comes to worst ill post another thread but id like to just keep this one for now.

Thanks for your time.
