ok i did the diagnostics, and man thats a sweet deal, nice not having to drive to a dealership, um

while the engine is running i got a flash flash .. flash flash "water temp. sensor signal"?

while just in the on possition it did the same flash flash .. flash flash with a long pause then flash flash .. flash flash

heres a link to a video of the light

check engine light

in order to play this you may need quick time and a codec for .3gpp2 files

but try to play it anyways

how do i fix this sensor, and where is it located

west_side_supra · 10-02-2006, 06:37 AM

may i also mention i just talked to a person at my local theater who was driving a 87 supra turbo if he had any knowlege on the car, and his reply back was 4 motor swaps

he said it sounded like a boost leak garenteed.

so where would i find this boost leak, where should i be looking for this, and is it possible that the o-ring gasket on the BOV could cause such harm? and is there anything wrong with the way i have blocked off the original pipe?

plus where can i find the HKS 3000 pipe and chrome valve covers?

you can just have the valve covers powder coated. as for the hks 3000 pipe, you see them for sell every once and a while, havent seen a shop or store that sells them.

i was just curious as to what the light was beside the check engine light. my car doesnt have that and i couldnt read what it was in the video

west_side_supra · 10-03-2006, 06:57 PM

its a antilock brake light

west_side_supra · 10-03-2006, 06:58 PM

could someone tell me where they might think my boost leak may be?

ive put the stock bypass back on and its still running like crap, so would you say its where the BOV is on the IC pipeing? the o-ring

west_side_supra · 10-04-2006, 03:57 AM

well i have put the original one back on with a T adaptor and now running vacume lines to both the Bypass and BOV and its still running like crap, ive tested my bypass and it does stay shut up intill vacume is on it then it opens wide open. nightvision camera COOL! i dont know where to even look for any problems should i just give it up and bring it to a mechanic.oh and i put 1 quart of oil and now its full again, still have 2 extra just in case. still running like poopy and i went to many places yesterday, shucks/autozone/home depot/ lowes and no one had a thinker version of the o-ring. so i just used some sylicone for it and it looks like it should do good i need to add a tad bit more and then ill test it see if thats where my leaking was comeing from, cause i cant here any hissing

again everyone i really want to thank you guys for all of your help, im sorry if i have been bugging you on this subject, but you guys are all smarter than me on the supra, im coming from the world of domestics to import and there is a huge diffrent in the engines but bassically the same setups.
thanks again

if i was trying to find the boost leak, i would start the car, pop the hood, then rev the engine up and look/listen
