[QUOTE=cre;74578]Sigh.... you didn't REALLY read my post then.

No I have checked that S&%T 3 times now, every thing lines up. The only issue I have is with this http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Librar...aspx?S=IG&P=19

It says "align the grove of the distributor housing with the protrusion on the drive gear" there is no f%&kin "PROTRUSION" on the drive gear, only the grove on dis housing.

ok so I just went out and moved the dist over one tooth and I think that solved the prob, idles around 700rpm doenst change much movin the dist around, so thats a good sign right? CRE your right, I did miss the dist thing. dont know why mine doesnt have a protrusion but whatever. Thanks CRE

Ran into same problem with mine. The distributor for the 87 and I guess 88 7mge has a round circle on the shaft that you line up with the line. That trough me through a loop as well, the sucky part is that the circle is huge and you cant tell if its a tooth off or not as you have figured out now.

Yeah, some distributors/CPSs only have the pin to go by, no other hatch mark, but most people get that. If you're off by a tooth you'll find that to get the timing close to where you want it (10?BTDC) you'll have to rotate the distributor/CPS pretty much as far as the slide on the housing will allow. If this is the case, you're probably off by a tooth. IIRC, properly lined up and zero'd out the timing advance should be close to 0? with the bolt centered in the oval hole.

Clarkrc82, if you have a question about something... ASK. I don't mention these things for the sake of a cheap laugh... and you're welcome.

So I finally timed it today, and set it at 10 btdc it starts jumping up and down from 1000rpm to 2000rpm

It starts doing that around 5 btdc, it jumps more and more as I bring it to 10 btdc. If I set it at 0 btdc it doesnt do that at all. I still need to get an alt though so I dont know if runnin off the battery affects anything. Im not throwing any codes

I have a question, I pulled out and tested the isc and it checked out ok resistance wise but I couldnt get it to move when i applied voltage to b1 b2 and then ground out s1-s2-s3-s4? when the car is off its supposed to close all the way? Its looks like its all the way open when I took it out.
