Well crap its been problem after problem with my supra lol. I am hoping one time I will replace a part and everything will be good. But by that time I will have ALL new parts lol. I went and bought new wires and a cap already have new iridium plugs in it. That wasnt it then I got to checking around and measured the resistance on the coil. It was .8 the book says it should be .2-.3 on n/a models and .7-.8 on turbo models. I have a n/a model, maybe someone put a turbo coil on it??? The secondary resistance did not show up at all. I am going to get a new coil today when it comes in at about 4pm, $87! I really hope this fixes the problem!


EDIT: I forgot the turbo models have coil paks lol.

Ok well that wasnt it either. I hooked it up and it did the same thing so I took it back shhhh I never installed it lol. Wow im running out of ideas. The book is wrong cause the new coil's resistance was .7 also.

What exactly is wrong with your car?

I think I might have found my problem. Where the egr valve connects to the intake I Have a vaccum leak. I tightened the bolts more and it still leaks. I am going to get a gasket for it but if that doesnt work then I guess the connector is bent or something. Soooo then if that doesnt work I guess I have to buy a whole new egr valve.

It idles really crappy and misses, changed the wires, new plugs, new rotor and cap. All new vaccum lines. etc...

maybe your timing is wrong?

have you got that checkd?
cuz u said it misses

Yes the timing is fine. Now I have another problem it over heated yesterday so im like GREAT I took out the thermostat and ran without it and it didnt overheat all day then today it did it again after driving for awhile. Also it misses really bad when it gets warm up to about 3000rpm. I am thinking that it might be the heater core cause I turned the heater all the way up and it was cool....

Is there any way to just bypass the heater for now????

Edit: I just looked in the trsm or whatever and it says it could be cause I retarded teh timing and now that I think about it it didnt overheat until I did that... hmmm....

lol...............................!!!!!

I feel like im answering my own questions lol. Well I found out why it was throwing the knock sensor code. CAUSE IT WASNT PLUGGED IN! That could be a problem... But the idleing bad and missing continues. Even though I just put new iridium plugs in it I am going to pull them and see what they look like cause the pistons had a lot of carbon on them. Could have fouled a plug or something.
