Leaky or blocked coolant hoses, bad heater core, or the temp control mechanism is bunk.

On my crx the main fuel relay went out and it would only start when cold. It sends a signal to the fuel pump that the ignition is on. Im sure it is similar on the supra.

Go for one of those used 30K jap motors. Replace the head gasket on it and you'll be good to go. It'll be about $500.

Hell that is a great price for a turboed supra. Parting it out alone could net you a few G's.

I like supra girl's idea... you may get away with a real bargain.

Check the throttle positioning sensor, it's on top of your intake manifold. This happened on my 3vze and it was the TPS. I'm sure you can find one on ebay for about $10.

SOund like a head gasket failure to me. Getting that head off can suck but with a little patience you should get er done in a day. Just keep track of all the damn bolts and brackets.
