So it is possible to take the engine out without taking the gearbox out. I have the head, intake, exhaust, pistons and rods and oil pan out but would now like to take the block out to check the crank bearings etc.

Could be something with the MAP sensor, or a matter of timing.

I'd check the MAP and look for any vacuum leaks.

I'd take a look at the distributor and ignition coil. I wouldn't think it'd be fuel related since none of that was touched, so it has to be a matter of timing/ignition.

It might be the rotor, checked it last week and it had some corotion on it, i cleaned it and put it back.
spoke to a toyota mechanic and he sayd it might be a ground fault. need to check this after work This post has been edited by Tort1llaboy: Aug 20, 2014 - 5:03 AM |
