My '89 Supra Turbo won't run, any troubleshooters?

Thanks, I'll try that. I was thinking I might need a new O2 sensor -- but , like supragirl said, It would likely make it run more rich -- but since I now have my AFM replaced, things could be different now. I don't recall that a bad 02 could keep it from starting, but I could be wrong - maybe if it had a short in it, that would cause some serious problems, but I'm not too knowledgeable on emissions stuff.
I appreciate the input and answers, I'll update my troubleshooting as I go along. Maybe
you can help me out Supragirl, as you seem to know what you are talking about. And who said car stuff was only for guys, LOL. I respect a knowledgeable girl in the realm of vehicles and engines -- and you drive a supra to boot, you rock. I still hunting for that damn boost leak, but it's so tight in there around the turbo -- It must be the main intercooler hose on the bottom of the turbo. If I was smart (and not broke) then I'd be slapping a
hard pipe kit on there and be done with the worrying -- but I might have to improvise. Any ideas?

take it easy.
