Subject: Team3S: OIL
level problem
Hello TEAM,
My brother (JOHN with a 94 TT -- Pearl
Yellow) posted a while back on the
list a question about the oil level light
coming on intermittedly, although
the LOW/HIGH graded gauge shows adequate
pressure. I drove his car for the
past 2 days and noticed that the
dashboard red oil warning light only comes
on when the car is running at a
stand still (like at a redlight). I almost
want to say, that (correct
me if I'm wrong) there must be more than one oil
sensors in this engine and
that the one closer to the top of the engine is
malfunctioning (could be
totally wrong here since I'm not a mechanic).
Has anyone had this problem
before? Does anyone know how many oil sensors
there are in the TT
engine? Can they be accessed easily? The oil level is
fine and my
brother uses 10W30 Mobil 1 synthetic.
Another problem:
This may have
been answered by some previous posts in the past 2 days, but
I'm not
sure. In the morning, when the car is cold, I hear a ticking
noise.
From what I've been reading on the list, this sounds like a noisy
lifter
(maybe air under it). I'll have to give it a try tomorrow by
reving up the
engine to 2500 - 3500 rpm to see if it gets rid of the
noise.
Another problem:
About the transmission. It is awfully
hard in the morning, or whenever the
car stays in one place for a long time,
to shift in the gears. I can barely
find them, I press the clutch a few
times, and 3rd gear wants to grind on me
if I don't nudge it in REALLY REALLY
carefully by feeling its way in. I was
just wondering how normal this
is? This is a new TRANNY (10,000 miles)
changed by DODGE under
warranty.
Also, I still hear the THUD when going in first every so often
(more
accentuated in heavy traffic) although I adjusted the pedal up a bit
(now it
doesn't catch in the last part anymore). Ran out of ideas what
to do about
the THUD (I really dont't like the dealers). Do you guys
think I should
change the rear differential oil on the car. What oil
viscosity and what
type?
Phewww. All done. I know these
are a lot of questions. It is a great car
and I just want my brother to
have it in good shape. Some of you guys are
really experts at this
stuff. Maybe some of you have had the same problems.
Thanks in
advance.

Team3S: Fuel pump
Hi Roger,
I have a Supra turbo fuel pump which
has supposedly a higher rated
volume & pressure than our stock 190
L/hr.
Questions:
1. It looks like it will be a direct
replacement. Ie no special bolts
hoses etc, right??
2.
Will it make my stock injectors deliver more fuel??
3. Do I need to
change or modify my stock fuel pressure regulator??
4. Should I buy
a 'Rising rate fuel pressure regulator'?
http://www.turbo-zet.com/pg000012.htmThe
Supra pump is part #23221-46110 list$246.70; net$172.69 from Toyota
on the
Heights 216-321-9100.
Be of good cheer
John

Yep :)

No :(

Not at all.

http://www.turbo-zet.com/pg000012.htmWell,
this is an alternative but the spray pattern of the fuel injectors will
be
degraded and over a longer period it is not good to them. But it's
possible and
you can make the stock 360cc delivering fuel like 420 - 440cc.
The calculation
says even more but you must compensate this with an
additional fuel controller
for the lower area Otherwise you'd run way too
rich for sure.

It definitely
works ok as the Walbro does for about $115.
Hope this helps

turbo upgrade?
I can't find info on this anywhere. What are the turbo
sizes that are
used in HKS' GT2835 ball bearing turbo upgrade kit? I am
guessing 15g
or 18g, but I want to know for sure. Thanks,
Later
