pins 6 & 5. They make a tool for depinning the plugs but many a heavy duty paper clip has been used. In reviewing your photos above again I can see the plug for the NSS and it doesn't look horrible but I would clean it a second time. There is one bolt on top of the tranny that holds a wire...

There is a known corrosion issue with the two larger wires in the NSS plug. I am not near my parts stock but the pigtail and pin as well as the plastic plug is available from Toyota. From the looks of your NSS plug the wiring harness side is likely as dirty. I would unplug it and clean it...

TPD shows 90916-03117 replaced the p/n my FSM shows but they ain't got none and note "this part is discontinued." Local dealer stated the same thing this morning. Looks like Partouq it is.

Thank you. I was going off the p/n in the FSM I have. Internet search seems to show that is a discontinued part and replaced by the 90916-03117. I printed a label to stick on that page and cover the old p.n.

Can anyone verify a shortage of the 90916-03094 - thermostat for the 1FZE-FE?

It looks like @OGBeno cut his at the flange for the upper intake manifold flange and @jpoole elected to cut the lower Intake flange to the Head. I am building a motor for Beaulah and plan to do mine when I swap engines. Is there a reasonable advantage to one or the other?

Knock sensor part # 89615-30050. You will need 2 if they fell apart. The AC compressor belt being in place will not stop the rotation of the motor abruptly. You said the plugs are removed. I just want to verify that all 6 are removed and you aren't compressing left over coolant in a...

I put mine on an engine stand that we use for BB Chevs, Olds and Ponitacs. It will move a long block around but there is no way I am hanging all the manifolds on both sides and going to trust it without lengthening the stand. We had to weld the brace above the gusset at the bottom of this...

I had one do this and was able to hacksaw and cross in it and use a Phillips to get it out. Drill and EZ out would work too.

Will be following this one. Going to a simple arm rest, not map pocket at the bottom of the door and manual windows is one of my ideas as well. I have an 80 with manual roll ups out back. I haven't spent time and torn the door down but I did note that it does not have the side impact bars in...

NSS is a good place to start. Mine had the bolt vibrate loose and I would get nothing once in awhile when turning the key. See thread below. There are some noted wires/terminals in the NSS which tend to go bad frequently and may need to be replaced. There is an image of the NSS adjustment...

Fast XFI 2.0 way beyond stock build in the works.

I have installed a lot of turbos and turbo kits on many makes and models that were naturally aspirated from the factory as well as modified many OEM turbo vehicles. I will say that @Cruisers and Co kit is well worth the money, well thought out and fabricated well. If you brought me a naturally...

Would the block off plate for the water jacket on the head be a good location to tap and connect the coolant line to the turbo? It's just above the water pump and in front of the thermostat bypass tube assembly (finger pointing to it). I prefer threaded connections. Edited due to really bad...

Simple answer to your question is the wires have polarity. The thermocouple at the end creates EMF voltage. If the wires are swapped the gauge will not read correctly. The good news is it will not destroy the dissimilar metals creating the EMF voltage to hook it up backwards. The hard part is...
