where would I put a jack
 
Where should I put the jack if i'm going to burp the car? Whats a good spot that the car can support itself?

under the rearend or under the subframe, then there are jack locations also, one behind the front driver tire, front passenger tire, and one in front of the rear driver tire and rear passenger tire

To burp the car the front end has to be up i think. So my best bet would prob. be behind the passenger in the front and behind the driver in front.

im sorry i meant to say those locations are for jack stands. put the jack under the crossmember/subframe jack it up to desired height, then place jack stands under the formentioned locations. i just ran out to take pics
this is the crossmember/subframe where you put the jack

what do you mean burp?

Awesome pics!

As for burping, do a quick search, you'll find a write up of it. IT basically gets the air out of your cooling system.

just warm the car to temp . the therostat will open. take it to 1500 rpm for about a minute. bring it to idle and check your level.

this will not remove the possible trapped air in the (TOYOTA SUPRA) coolant system

air gets trapped in the heater car as it is higher than the rest of the coolant system. raising the front will make the coolant system about level, then running the car and heat will push the air out.


i think thats what it is. do a search for it, i believe its in the faq section
