Although that is for a rev 1 is the method of setting the timing on a rev 3 the same? I think I'll print out a copy and show it to the Mechanic to make 100% sure it's correct. I supplied the parts and bought them from tcb, though I didn't check to make sure it was the right belt, but I definitely or...

Ok, picked the car up from the garage again, the mechanic said he had double checked the timing and that it was definitely correct and that he could not find a problem anywhere, i believe him as he does know his stuff and is very honest. I have taken the car back as the amount of misfire tells me it...

Thanks for the advice guys. How would you tell whether it is mechanical or ignition timing that is incorrect.

Ok, will have them check, The car did seem to run badly also. Is this the right thing I need to look at - http://mr2.noegruts.com/ignition/timing.htm

Can any damage occur from driving with incorrect timing?

I don't possess a timing light so that will have to wait until it goes back to the garage. Would wrong timing cause this problem?

Hello chaps, Just returned from having cambelt, hydraulic tensioner, idlers, alt/ac belts and water pump changed and my car isn't healthy at all! The problem is that when I put my foot down, I can hear the turbo spooling and showing plenty of boost on the gauge but the car doesn't go any faster. And...

That was rather silly of me, revision 3 turbo. I'm pretty sure i've ordered all the right parts, the chap from tcb was very helpful.

Hello, I just need to quickly double check I will be buying the right parts for a full cambelt, tensioner, idler, alternator belt, air con belt and water pump change. These are the parts I think I need: timing belt J1122031 £29.20 + vat timing belt tensioner 13540-88480 Toyota £45.17 + vat timing be...

Hello all,

Thought i'd give you all a headsup, there is 20% off all mobil 5 litre containers at halfords. So the popular 15w/50 is only £38.39, quite a bargain i thought.

How would you recommend heating them? I was thinking touching the screws with a soldering iron.

Sorry for the Necro, but does anyone know the part numbers for the door mirror mounts? This wind noise is getting right on my boobs. Passenger side: 67514-17020 Driver side: 67513-17020 I noticed a big difference when I replaced my drivers side mount. I'm using the Velcro fix on the passenger side ...

JeffD suggested that the easiest way of fixing this is to replace the door mirror mount. They're not expensive (less than £30) from Toyota. I have since done this, and it fixed my instance of wind noise... Sorry for the Necro, but does anyone know the part numbers for the door mirror mounts? This w...

Thanks very much.

Hello, driving above about 30mph I get a rustling sound from the wing mirror/tweeter area, so it looks like i have the same air leak as described here -http://www.btinternet.com/~netsurf/mr2t/mr2Tprobsandcures.html#wind My question is - does anyone know where I can get the new screws that attach the...

Ok, thanks for your reply, the tensioner will get changed then. Can anyone tell me about the pumps and hose from hell?

Hello chaps, My rev 3 turbo is due a cambelt change, so at the same time I was wondering what else would be prudent to change without spending huge amounts of money. Obviously the cambelt and idler bearings, alternator and air con belts, the water pump was changed 5 years ago will that need changing...

the other pulley I suppose is the oil pump

Thanks for the link, an oil pump pulley? Or the oil pump itself?

The air con belt is also driven by the engine pulley wheel but is different to the alternator belt.

Can't recommend a garage but I'm sure someone will.

Ok, thought it was strange as i couldn't find an aircon belt on any parts websites. Can you link one please?

Hello chaps, I am the proud owner of a very nice rev 3 turbo which has probably become my most favourite thing in the world. The cambelt needs doing however and i thought whilst this is done i might as well get any other bits in the same area replaced, what would you chaps suggest? I was thinking wa...

Sold to me! A pleasure meeting you and thanks for taking such good care of the car, I will continue to do so. It was a fun drive home to say the least!
