Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] MR2 turbo rebuild
king lead was also replaced, I did notice the car running a lot better with the TPS sensor unplugged, however it then wouldn't idle below 1200 rpm. I did check the TPS a while ago and it was withing BGB specs...
pulling the plugs one by one made difference, so it's running on 4 cyl, albeit rough.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] MR2 turbo rebuild
HT leads on the right order, all new ignition components;
I also seam to have a very small leak at the dp and turbo gasket, could this cause such issues? I will be changing the gasket this week...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] MR2 turbo rebuild
ok, I'll check the fuel pressure regulator. Something else to test or known to go wrong?

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] MR2 turbo rebuild
checked everything
cam timing is dead on, as well as ignition timing
also pulled the ECU and checked for leaking capacitors, but looks as clean as a whistle
I'm out of ideas... Cylinder leakage test was also less than 20%, so that's ok.
Any other ideas?

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] MR2 turbo rebuild
ok, so further testing was done, but still couldn't get it right. Compression is as follows after 5-6 cranks: 155, 160,160, 160 PSI I cleaned out the IACV, which made my idle a lot better, but engine is shaking still slightly. Popping seems to have stopped Pressure tested for boost leaks/ vacuum lea...

[Mk2] [Turbo] MR2 turbo rebuild
Hi Guys, just rebuilt my gen3 3sgte, but idles bad, it misfires on idle, although I get no codes from the ECU, checked for all connectors to be attached, etc. but can't seem to find it. I also did a compression test, giving 9 bar or 135 psi on all four cylinders, but with the throttle body wide open...

Re: MR2 rev3 SMG turbo

My mate had a genuine and isn't happy with the fact that they all use the same gasket material and thre price being the only difference

Re: MR2 rev3 SMG turbo
whilst having starter problems I'm left with 2 options why the engine doesn't crank:
-AM2 fuse broken ( will have to check)
-wiring failure
starter has been tested, just as the relay etc.
Soon the engine will come out for a full rebuild

Re: MR2 rev3 SMG turbo
Thanks! I already found 1 of the former owners of this car of the IMOC :o At the moment the engine doesn't turn over, starter worked once when out of the car. But now it doesn't do that anymore, I don't know what could be wrong? I'm assuming starter relay, but would seem strange as it worked once al...
