And you do convert, you may well want to consider a new parallel-flow condensor as the OEM condensor won't work the best in the world with 134a.

Stealerships are your only option (and I don't personally know if these seals are still available or not) unless you want to try a used set from someone parting a car out.

If it had 12 before you don't want to just throw 134a in it. The two aren't compatible, oils or refrigerant. He'll want to replace the dryer, expansion valve, and a few of the seals (at a minimum)...

My suggestion would be to buy a GTE engine and swap it in rather than putting a turbo on the GE. Less trouble in the long run.

That's what I'm running on mine. Easy to switch out, good quality lines. Just got to make sure you route them properly or you'll end up rubbing holes in them on the shocks & coils.

If you're replacing the lines make sure you've got the proper size wrenches and that you try and turn the fittings the proper direction. Things can get ugly if you round-off the fittings. :crazy:

It's not important. Just one of those 1J/2J converts volunteering their opinion on the 7M series engines.

Anyway, the pulley on the crankshaft is the harmonic balancer. If it's wobbling that...

See above. Replace one or both cables, though it's more likely to be the lower cable than the upper one.

Yeah, it's just a standard allen-wrench type bolt. Don't recall the size right off hand, but I've used them before when my wrench was missing in action.

I'm gonna have to defer that to someone who knows the J-series engines better than I do. Most of what I know is the 7M, and from what you've described that definately doesn't apply here.

Could the wire have been coming from a water temp sensor mounted on the thermostat housing rather than the pump itself? I don't have much experience with the 1J or 2J, but that makes more sense to...

The stock fan is mechanical and runs off a belt, not electric, so no fuse for it.

For that matter, what kind of water pump "conversion" did you do? Just curious...

Salvage yards, Ebay, and for-sale ad's on here and other Supra-related forums. Be aware they are VERY fragile and the filter-tube easily broken when you handle them.

I knew a bad EGR can create high NOx, but for some reason I was thinking that a leaking or bad EGR might be causing a rise in HC under some conditions.
