Need help guys. Don't seem to have any vacuum. Just reads zero on the gauge. Haven't tried boosting it. Hotpipe on turbo isn't getting hot either. Any ideas? Could it be a vac leak (no whistling noises though) or a sensor?
This issue is not always apparent. Sometimes OK, other times not.
Did a quick search, but couldn't find anything on this. Are ARP head bolts different size tool than stock? Are there any markings to determine if they are indeed genuine? Anyone ever reused a stock set of bolts? I believe they're torque to yield, so have to be replaced?
Looking for recommendations for replacement stem seals, or are Toyota ones still the best? Prices vary massively online, from £15 a set to £60 (Toyota)! I know you get what you pay for, but on the other hand, OEM prices are massively inflated.
Been in contact with ARP today. Unlike stock head bolts, theirs are not torque to yield, so do not stretch. Therefore, provided you use the ultra-torque lubricant, they are just tightened in 3 stages up to 60ft lbs (approx. 81Nm).
Is it possiblet o re-use ARP head bolts? Their website suggests you can, provided they were torqued up correctly when installed. But does anyone have any direct experience with re-using them?
Anyone know what the difference is between a 5efhe and 4efte pcv valve? Toyodiy has the 5efhe number as 12204-10030 and is used on several engines, mainly 5e. The 4efte has a number of 12204-10040 and, although it states starlet turbo, it also states paseo and tercel engines! I'm confused. Can either used in either engine as I know they'll fit?
