Re: New MR2 Beams turbo!!!

Anyone up on these? Got a small misfire but only on wot. If I go through the revs gently it's ok. Which spark plugs and gap are you using? Have you got orange/brown rings on the COP? What are your AFRs like? Hi. Thanks for the reply. I've been a bit useless and not updated. It's now running perfect...

Re: My potential money pit! new car... Beams turbo

Ok so after collecting the car a few days ago and it breaking down, I fitted a new alternator after work last night. Finally she is home! Next up is to fix the misfire, change the headlight motors, fit the trd short shifter and give it a good wash! Then to fit a headunit and sort out tyres.

Re: New MR2 Beams turbo!!!

Well I made progress today. Managed to remove the alternator. Since there was no way I was about to remove the exhaust I took the inlet manifold off. Because I have had it off so many times for my brother it only took about 15 minutes to remove and the alternator came out. It has now gone in to be t...
