??? If you have any of those pics I really need to see them. Those two wires and one plug are the only thing stopping me from having the beast running again.

"I just put a new head gasket on my supra and that wiring runs over the top and then down the drivers side of your tranny. If I remember correctly there are bolts that hold it onto the tranny."

Yes, I know it bolts to the tranny, I was asking how to DISCONNECT the connectors as they are above the transmission. And the wiring goes through the lower intake manifold, therefore preventing the head to come off the block WITH the lower intake manifold still bolted on. Or it prevents the lower intake manifold to come out of the engine bay for cleaning. Problem was solved about 2 months ago, by doing what jfunez said.

Yes, I have plenty of more pictures. Why don't you post pictures of the connectors that you do not know where they go and Ill tell you where they go.

Sounds like your fan clutch fluid coupling is leaking. What ever happened to starting your own thread instead of hijacking a thread that has nothing to do with your problem? Take a picture and post it. Pictures speak louder than words. If you don't have a camera, get a job.

The one with the clear connector is for the speed sensor.

The one with the white connector is for the reverse lights.

is a 1.5mm MHG stock size HG or do i have to get it machine shaved n e ways

[88Tsupra]

hey im confuse i went on hksusa website and they had MHG bead and stopper do you need to buy both or just one and which one is better

[IHateHacks]

1mm is the stock head gasket thickness.

Bead and Stopper gaskets are 2 different kind of HKS head gaskets. Stopper is much better than the bead, cheapest HKS stopper head gasket I've seen is $355 and its 2mm's in thickness.

Don't even bother buying a head gasket until you have the cylinder head off of the block. Because that will be the only time you will be able to determine IF your cylinder head and block are in proper condition to be able to use a Metal head gasket. I wasn't able to use a metal head gasket because of the pitting around the exhaust side's coolant passages at the #6 cylinder, which is, by the way, the most common area for the supra to blow the head gasket.

was it the pix were ur head gasket lookd like oil was sitting there for along time...cuz when i changed my plug i notice i had oil in 5 and 6 buh the rest was ok buh then plug 5 and 6 lookd a lil burned..is that a sign..and if i just get a stock size HG will it still blow on me if its not a MHG..also i plan on building the motor up to plus around 400hp...its going to take me about A year or 2 to get it to 400hp because im just going to take it slow..so if i attempt to get 400hp the MHG is best right?
