Here, found the info on the plugs for you. MK3 TSRM On-Line
The video could very likely be rod knock, but I've been convinced before that a car had rod knock when it was an exhaust leak. Do like Supramacist suggested and grab a broom stick. If you'd thrown a valve shim you'd know it, listening to the valve cover would be downright painful. |

Look, I already explained and apologized about that one. I was having an off week and wasn't being as understanding as I should have been... God! When will you let it rest?

I guess im shooting all over the place today but off subject question.
I was looking for a JDM 7MGTE to throw in the car after I pull the old engine for a awesome rebuild. The specs say the JDM 7M fits 89-90 but I have a 87/88 hybrid.. will the JDM fit my 87/88 engine bay or is thier some difference in MKIII engine bay size since the JDM sites are saying 89-90 fit

The differences between pre89 and 89+ are: wiring harness connectors (not all), and motor mounts. So you'll need to swap some sensors, keep your wiring harness and swap the motor mounts.
I have no idea what is meant by 87/88 hybrid. |

How many people out there have a supra as there main car and still get time to overhaul the engine. I did. But my boss lived a street down from me and picked me up from work.
You said you knew what you were in for buying a 20 year old car $100 a month, for a few months you don't spend anything, and then $2000. I bet it is more than just a puncture too. Do you still believe that, because I'm sure quite a few others in this forum don't. No offense. Not been nasty, just blunt. Besides Supra's are an awesome car, when they work!! lol
