  1. This guide that I have added to the Transmission Group might help? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?discussionid=189&do=discuss Most faults are self inflicted by poor maintenance, electrickery dickery and throttle body tinkerings. Should your transmission fail to work properly, if you have recently tinkered with any of the above, there would be a good place to start. Check list. 1. Correct fluid level is crucially important. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?discussionid=188&do=discuss 2. Check for any fault codes. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?35920-How-To-Check-the-diagnostics-codes 3. Correct signal from odometer is vital, check for poor connections on speed converter. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?72588-Code-42-Fix&highlight=pink+wire+mod 4. Correct setting of Throttle Position Sensor is essential. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?gmid=2546&do=discuss#gmessage2546 (If you have dicked with the throttle stop, you may have a problem) 5. Speed sensor signal is imperative. (See links on 2 & 3.)
  2. 2JZA80-GTE (T.T.) Note: The Workshop Manual printed in English, is for U.S. spec and U.K. spec, but not J. spec. The feeler gauge measurement given in the Workshop Manual written in English, (pics in post #4) is different from the measurement given in Workshop Manual written in Japanese. SupraGTE works at Toyota Europe H.Q. in Belgium, who has via the Tech Dept and a Translator kindly provided copies of the relevant pages from the Japanese spec Workshop Manual, along with a few translation scribbles. Thank you very much Stefan. Instead of spoon-feeding this correct measurement, I am making you look for it yourself, then after seeing it with your own mince pies, you then after won't be worried by any of the many old wives.
  3. Note: The Workshop Manual printed in English has U.S. spec & U.K. spec T.P.S. settings, J spec settings are slightly different. Most things are the same, but T.P.S. adjustment isn't one of them. (The relevant Japanese Workshop Manual pages for T.T. are linked PDF in post #3, however, I have lost the 2 pages for N/A. If anyone has access to a Japanese Workshop Manual, a copy of the relevant page would be appreciated. Thank you.) 2JZA80-GE (N/A) Tip: Make sure that you put feeler gauge into correct throttle stop.
  4. That's the original water drain pipe from charcoal filter, it is an open pipe that will now be exiting fuel vapours at centre front cross member. Not too far from where you might fit a screamer pipe.
  5. Scroll down to DI 75 for Workshop Manual info and trouble shooting of pressurised fuel tank system. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/content.php?61-Diagnostics
  6. Have tried again with success this time, the PDF was only loading first page of each, must be my slow connection. He's spoilt for choice now.
  7. Click on the automatic transmission links and you will find that they are not there.
  8. The link Dnk has given lead to empty pages. Try this. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?234279-A340E-ATM-Unit-Repair Or this. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?groupid=57
  9. Don't worry about your temporary colour blindness, can you see well enough to tell if the level is correct? If so, keep your eye on the odo problem.
  10. Drain the sump and take a good look at it, a drop of it in a glass will show it's colour & condition and take sniff of it too.
  11. Low fluid level, 20 years old fluid or a partially blocked strainer is my best Mystic Dave prediction for this one(s).
  12. That's what it's for. numbnut. I add the answer to every auto transmission question I get asked and have Indexed them by post title, to save keep answering them again-again-again. When a new one pops up, I just add it to the list, I'm one post behind re. Throttle Position Sensor adjustment at the mo, because my Workshop Manuals are out on loan.
  13. There has recently been such a spate of similar self inflictions, I have added a numbnuts check list to the Transmission Group. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?groupid=57
  14. It sounds like low fluid level from lack of maintenance. It's incredible just how many lovingly polished Supra's that have never had the dipstick looked at since they left the factory.
  15. I have heard of the in rad cooler leaking coolant into transmission, but statistically, it's more likely that the OP is colour blind?
  16. Your wallet will regret that half baked tinkering.
  17. Most faults are self inflicted by throttle-body tinkerings, electrickery dickery or poor maintenance.

  18. Tip: When you see a red wiggly line underneath one of your words turds, right clicking the mouse will atomically give you correctly spelt options to guess from.
