I'll be dissecting carefully to see if I can pinpoint something, other than the expected tossed bearing that I think is the result, not the cause.
Okay, so I'm just trying to find an answer when there probably isn't one - except shit happens. I'm just hoping to figure out what I can do...
I haven't thread-searched this at all, so feel free to bash.... I've gone through 2 engines where I suddenly lost oil pressure and spun rod...
With that front air dam it must be very fast and aerodynamic....
According to wikipedia, this was the ninth generation T170 Corona, also known in Europe as the Carina II GT-R (sport model with 2000 cc (3SGE)...
Haven't had time and still unsure if I trust myself to not confuse my shotgun for the wrench... :? Maybe this coming weekend.
It's all good. I should have been more clear regarding the chronology of my posts/comments. I would be frustrated, too, if it appeared that...
Mafix is correct. The car has not moved or been started since the engine went out. I was attempting to make light of the situation by commenting...
On the up side, before the lower end went again, the idle speed (cold and warm) were perfect and very stable after replacing the IACV and TPS. To...

SH*T! I just did a complete engine rebuild. Now this? Everything was done completely by the book (BGB). All new internals. Block and head decked,...

.60 mm gauge and IDL to E2 terminal ohmeter check it is. Thanks. On another note, I'm replacing the hoses on the idle air control valve with the...
With my old TPS, I did what the BGB said to do about testing the various electrical contacts with different thickness gauges between throttle stop...
Better not be a vacuum leak. I replaced all hosing with brand new silicone - even found red to match paint:) And, since intake/exhaust manifolds...
Yeah, that's on the list along with a bunch of other sensors, sending units, VSVs (etc) until I lick this A/F issue. Since engine internals are...
Yeah? I figured somewhere around there. Then I've definitely still got an A/F issue. I'm idling nearer 2,000 RPM until I warm up. The more I read...
I replaced the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) when I reinstalled my engine, so didn't bother to check it. However, since I've bee getting noise...
Here's what I used to 'discover' my '88 GTS had received 86-87 GTS injectors (the bare wires going to the injector tops was a big hint, too, that...
