Doubt you will see season 6 for download on any torrent sites anytime soon , you just have to make do with Season 5 due for release 5th Oct .....x

Your never going to get as good as the first , although F&F 4 is still a decent film in my opinion it lacked street racing , but there again how much of the same can we take ...

Best drama on TV, Hugh Laurie is brilliant in it where do you download season 6?????

ok ...seems it was the culprit !....done a test drive and no more erratic revs at idle , no more smoking , i've done a temporary fix until I can replace the nut that has the plastic hose connector . Thanks all , for your help and input , still going to clean the ICV , but perhaps another day ...:):)

[OOPS][/OOPS]...

between these two points is where the small hose fits , as you can see at the bottom of the pic the plastic end broke off and is still inside the hose , ....

ok , i just noticed the possible culprit ...the small hose at the rear near the manifold area which is attatched to the SENSOR ASSY VACUUM unit has broken off and cannot be re attatched because the plastic connector has snapped off !......I dare say this is the reason for my problems ...but looks like I nee a new nut/connector assembly ...is this an item that can be bought from Toyota ?...

will do ....sounds an easy enough job to remove the ICV from the manifold and I'll give it a good clean with some brake cleaner , just worried it's the o2 sensor , reckon there not cheap !... Thanks to all for your help and input , i'll let you know how I get on

nope the stock box had been removed and replaced with the induction system by the previous owner , all I replaced was the cone filter with a similar cone one ...yes I did disconnect the sensor from the air pipe but I did make sure I plugged it back securely....I'm wondering even if I did swap back the old filter It would'nt necessarily fix my problem would it ? if the damage has been done so to speak !...just thinking out loud...

it's a N/a...but could it be coincedence that it happened after I changed the Air filter ? ( wasn't straight after was about a day later )

not sure , could that really cause all three symptoms ? smoke , erratic idle and extremely high MPG ? Sorry to hear about your issue , sounds more intricate than mine . to answer your question , it does , but more often than that and generally when the car has warmed up after about say 5 mins

ok I am at a loss here !! ...I am getting the revs jump up and down between 200 - 1000 erraticly , and occasional Juddering at speed , and when stepping down there is suttle but evident black and sometimes white puffs of smoke from the exhaust (white at idle but black when giving a quick step down burst on the pedal). an now I've noticed my MPG has almost tripled ??? :sos: The only change I made before this happened was the air filter and the new one sucks in more air than the old one did , before I go changing this back could anyone confirm what could be causing this ? I am guessing that my fuel / Air mixture is not right

Exactly !!...here here [GRIN][/GRIN] Kurt
