Re: water protection?

While its sat it shouldn't be a problem unless it fills with water! Not sure I'd wanna run it with a plastic bag on though. Half decent car cover better idea though, whip if off throw in boot go driving.

Re: fans blow hot

Go to the frunk, remove spare wheel and plastics behind and look at the pipe on the left with the cable operating the valve. Check that the cable operates it fully both ways. Open and closed. Could be the cable isn't closing it fully or the valve is knackered.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Camshaft Removal without taking the complete belt off

My bet is the tensioner would move and you wouldn't be able to put pulley back on. If you are removing tensioner you might as well remove the belt. At least while the belt is off you can check the water pump etc. I'm all for a short cut but most of the time better off doing it right and doing it onc...

Re: peter giddens sbits

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Intermittent misfire / hesitation issue at low RPM / low throttle position

Have you inspected the coil? Done a code read? Inspected inside of ecu for caps leaking? Intermittent faults are a pita to diagnose at times. Good luck dude.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Clutch making strange noises

Unlikely to be the oil, save the new oil for when the clutch is changed. Get new driveshaft seals too just in case. Pita when you get 95% done then realize you gotta take the shafts out again to replace em.

Re: MR2 MK2 Rev 1 Turbo Injector seals

I ordered a set for a Mk3 from Toyota couple of weeks ago... Worth giving them a go first. Think they were about £3.75 each. Its worth replacing the o rings on the other side too while you are at it.
