The plan is to have it back on the road late may early June - that'll give me a couple months to iron out the bugs and get it ready for the long trip out to BC in August.  So far so good!

I'm so glad I was able to find a whole one instead.

FYI, do you have a separate? The coil is separate from the distributor unlike the 5sfe, also doesnt bolt the engine bay so it most likely didnt come with one.

So - I had to hook up a battery directly to my driverside window motor on Sunday. Long story short, I didn't roll up the driverside window prior to starting the engine swap; so for the past few months the shell has been sitting on my driveway with a huge piece of cardboard taped over the open window and then a car cover, followed by 2 tarps... some friends needed some parts that I just happened to keep in the car when I "sealed" it up, so this weekend I tore it all off and didn't want to put it all back on again and there was bad weather coming THAT night... *breathe* ...whew! So I hooked up a battery with the help of "sodap0p" and we were able to get the window up. Yay! Tonight when the weather was decent I put the door card back on and installed the TRD (knockoff, doesn't bother me) shift knob... The knob needs to be polished (yeah, I said it ) and the interior is a mess from the swap right now. I also took a pic of the 7th gen steering wheel to add to this archive.  Not much, but enjoy!

Does anyone know where I could find an aftermarket charcoal canister? I'd like to dress up the engine bay a little bit with one... but can't seem to find any.
I've tried Summit and a few other places, but maybe I'm using the wrong keywords? LMK This post has been edited by KAOS: Apr 24, 2012 - 11:06 AM -------------------- |

Took off the oil pan today to reveal this:
 Most likely from sitting too long. Tonight I was able to get the oil pan, the distributor assembly and the valve cover off. Oil pump looks to be in decent shape:   Look at the special treat that welcomed me when I took the Valve cover off:  CLEANLINESS!!! YAY!

Kurt/Brent; it was such a relief when I saw the internals... I was so happy!
Picked this up off the Calgary Kijiji today:  Dirt cheap. The guy was just trying to get rid of it... sold his MR2 awhile ago and just had it lying around. Pity. This post has been edited by KAOS: Dec 22, 2014 - 3:03 PM -------------------- |

Took the water pump off:
 Whats the best way to remove the rust deposits from the coolant lines, etc while the engine is OUT of the car? This rust deposit shouldn't concern me too much, right? I already know the engine had been sitting for awhlie... THOUGHTS?? This post has been edited by KAOS: Dec 22, 2014 - 3:03 PM -------------------- |
