  1. Need to do an oil change this weekend and just wanted to know if I can get a sump plug from any motor factor rather than waiting for one to be posted? Or, can I re use the one I have?

    im sure most oldskool toyota sump plugs are the same try your local scrapyard as i got mines replaced from the scrappy as well as my oil filler cap...dont quote me on this but i think they both came off an mr2

  2. Ok here's the problem first of all the car wasn't idling right always seemed like it's struggling when sat still in some cases had even died out and now the cold is here and I flick the heating on the problem is worse and now within the last few days smells like it's running rich like an oily fumy smell any ideas ?

    Check the following,

    King lead (any kinks or splits are connections in good condition and not coroded)

    Dizzy (check for cracks and make sure all leads are plugged securely)

    Thermostat,

    ht leads and plugs,

  3. how much is millers and would i find it on opie oils?

    I work part time at an M.O,T garage so i get it at trade price so i can afford to us it all the time,

    I think its approx £55-£60 for 5Litres,

    Im sure Opie does it aswell,

  4. ive been looking into these have heard these are pretty good but cant find a sensible/reputable mapper

    dastek unichips have been around for a long time....go to their website to find authorised dealers and mappers.

    My mate has his integra mapped on dastek some time ago and if im not mistaken he paid less than £100

  5. ive had my dump valve apart and cleaned as it was an old one i had off a mate, its working fine as far as i can see! im not loosing boost so worse case senario is shaft play in the turbo otherwise i have no clue? :)

    did you re-graese the piston and sleeve on the dumpvalve when cleaning it? as this can cause it to stick open and close on and off boost

  6. Hi My glanza has a bit of an idleing problem, when started it revs to 2,000 rpm and then after a while drops a bit and raises again.

    Would this be because i have a Toyosport decat pipe with no Oxygen Sensor ??

    Any solutions to get it idling better ??

    Clean out your idle controll valve and also check for any vacume leaks,

    Hope this helps!

  7. I have noticed a little bit of oil seeping from the underside of the dizzy, is there some sort of seal or washer in there that could be causing the leak i have not taken it off to have a look as i dont want it to mess with the timing,

    Regards
