Hi Oh yes I have been dumb enough today to fill the tank 1/4 the way up with diesel then reallise that I was not in my company van and poo my self. The MR2 des not have any sort of contraption to stop you putting the wrong nozzle in the filler hole its just a masive hole when the cap is removed, is ...

Well I get 240 miles out of 44 litres. Fill the tank up when the orange fuel light is pretty much on solid to full, which is 44 litres for my Rev 3 Tubby. If I drive keeping car between 50 - 60 MPH with the odd heavy right foot action to blast round slow cars I avearge just under 6 miles a litre. I ...

Hi Its been some time since I have done anything other than oil change and wash HKS air filter on my tubby so I though I would give her a darn good clear out and service a sort of late sping clean of you like. Replaced the dizzy cap and arm, plugs, leads a few days ago, all old ones are the original...

I took my evaporator out of my Rev 3 tubby as it smelt chauky, Found it was totaly clogged with dirt, basically fine dust that has got stuck to the condensation that forms on the evap coil / fins, over the years this builts up (as there is NO filter) and you end up with basically MUD ! Covered pipe ...

Hi I have a tubby with a Clifford Concept 300 alarm and its started doing something weird. If i set the alarm it does 2 chrups as normal and if I unset it chirps once this is fine. However if I set it (churps twice) and allow it 20 seconds to arm then set alarm off by kicking tyre, all I get is the ...

I have recently upgraded all my ice. I have focals in the doors running of a genesis amp, my problem is that the driver side speaker is much quieter than the other side. I have tried everything such as swapping inputs and playing with levels etc to no avail. is it possible that the speaker wire is ...

Hi Heard a bang while driving from the engine bay, then the air con seemed not to be cooling any more. Got car back home and I could not hear the magnetic clutch enguage that drives the compressor, usually it goes clunk when switched on. Looked under the car and resting on the under tray was the fro...

Hi I have a J reg MR2 UK spek, its been in our family from new and to be honist with you my folks are tight so never serviced it once when it got out of warranty. I now have it and had it since 2002 and have done many oil changes to it and covered 60K in my ownership. Its just had its first clutch a...

Hi They are easy to change the difficult bit is the bolt on the top of the shock piston, I undo it a few turns while its still on the car with weight on them makes it wee easy ! Once off the car slowly undo nut and be ready for the twang, they are not too bad and don't go flying, just have a good ho...

Hi Everyone Have a 1994 rev 3 Turbo and I have knocking noise coming from the front and back, car has covered 70K miles. The knocking is audiable when going over bumps and holes etc I have personally changed myself the front top mounts and shocks for OEM Toyota billys as MOT said struts were weak, t...

Hi Thanks very much that's what I needed, R12 and R134a are very simular in pressure so will aim for those figures, will connect manifold and cylinder back up and check / top up if needed. Its working ok at the moment so I don't think my squirt it in for 20 seconds method was that far out, its cold ...

Hi Have a rev 3 turbo and my air con has packed up, found my front condensor has basically fallen to bits, bought a new one and fitted that. I have got hold of a 13 kg bottle of new virgin R134a refridgerant, some new oil stuff, some leak detector and a Refco R134a manifold / guage set with pipes an...

Hi May be worth trying another Hall Sensor if you can get hold of one, will see if I can find an easy way to test that without having to strip the dizzy, usualy just coils of wire (and a spinning multiple tooth magnet that induces voltage in the coil) so should have a fairly low DC resistance using ...

Hi Ckeck that the multiplug is plugged in to the bottom or side of the distributer, there is a hall effect sensor in there that feeds back pulses to the ECU, this then knows when to actually generate the pulse to make the coil pack spark. removing the rocker cover he may of disterbed something aroun...

Hi Does anyone know where (apart from Toyota) I can get the dust covers / bump stops for the front and rear struts / shocks, mine have disintegrated. Is the bump stop part of the dust cover or are they seperate? Not yet had a leg off the car but noticed that the top of the shock piston shaft does no...

Hi Check the wires that go into the alternater multiplug are not broken in the insulation / sheth, had this on my REV 1 Mr2 turbo. The vibrating / movment in the wires intermittanly connect causing it to charge and then disconnect so it does not charge while driving and so on. Also make sure the con...

Hi

I could possibly repair (parts permitting) the faulty ones for you as I am a repair tech of 12 years and these are Matsushita (Panasonic / Technics) units after all.

Have fixed quite a few of the CDN3000 and equivelant ones before, that just spat the discs out.

Hi If you have Air con the only real issue you will have is with the intercooler and its bottom mount bracket, the air con tensioner pulley has to come off to allow intercooler to be removed (without its bottom bracket) to allow engine mount and bolt to be removed, this allows access to cambelt cove...

Hi

Looks like the standard Greddy turbo timer socket so at a guess would say Greddy, check their website for diagrams.

Hi I have a 1991 Tubro and the steering fog lights do not work. I have tested the steering fog control box and the actual fog lights and all work / steer fine on my mates MR2, fuse is ok so I can only assume it has a wiring fault. I get continuity from fog light steering plug to control box on both ...
