i know the one by the fuel and temp gauge is the ABS light.
as far as the other light is an ! with a triangle around it, thats about the tach

Well the light that you described sounds like a general coution light. My supra is in storage in the states (I didnt want to bring it to Guam) so I cant look at it. I bet if you checked for codes you would get something.

ok so. took distributor cap off, no water, dried it anyways. disconnected battery, wiped of terminals; nothing. waiting for night to start the engine to see if i could see sparks coming from any of the plugs, nothing. connected E1 & TE1 to run check, no check engine blinks; tried connecting them with the ignition on, and connected them with ignition off then turn on, nothing.

dont know what to do now. going go buy a new battery and see if thats the problem, doubt it but its worth a try.

if anyone has any other suggestions, feel free to share please!!?

It could be a vacuum leak. Perhaps your spraying in the engine bay dislodged a hose. Pressurize your intake to find the leak.
