diagnosis in west auckland

[pjay]

Have contacted most mechanics in the yellows and triangle auto, Bagnell Geoff auto and Joes Mechanical say they can diagnose my cars problem.

Anyone have any recommendations, people that specialise in 4agzes? maybe avid levin'ers?

Car is in limp mode so the less i drive the better!!

Would like to get the car diagnosed ASAP..

go to toyota,
or an auto electrician for electrical diagnostic

have you checked that the supercharger is plugged in?
small 2 pin plug about 3" away from it at the pulley end.
or check the s/c relay, on the l/h strut tower

Ill look for those tonight.. thanks. I hope it is something simple like that.. weird thing is that she s/c was fine for a whole day.. and only stopped the next morning

North western toyota said they would/ could not diagonse my car as it is modified... (cold air box and relocated battery are my only engine mods, wait i have a hks flange on my i/c as well)

i would recomend Joes Mechanical....
or others you can go to are
Al's Mechanical (in Massey or Te Atatu)
Candia Automotive...

or talk to Nadra (? spelling) at North Shore Diesels
him & his brother are the guru's on the shore on 4ages...

Ye bra..Took the car to Joes mechanical off Hendo valley. Nice nice guy!! I would recommend him to my mother!

He reckons its either an ECU short, OR my MAP sensor is flooded with oil. But neither of us could find the map sensor!! Where is it located exactly?

Im going to earth "T1" at the ECU itself to see if it will self diagnose because his scanner wouldnt communicate with the ECU.. just jumping on the net now to grab a wiring diagram of the gze ecu

im going to check my ecu. and if i STILL cant diagnose it, im ripping the ecu out and taking it to the ECU specialist dudes by torque performance off rosebank.. bunch of asians that really know theyre shit!

then i gotta locate the bloody map sensor and give it a clean. ill take it from there

They are the shit when it comes to 4age's and super/turbocharged 4ages.

I used to have a AE101 4agze Trueno.
Your description of your 4agze problem sounds like a prob I have a while ago. Check engine light on all the time, No codes, eentually it stuffed out and would only drive ok if I gave it full throttle! Ha, what fun!
It was the ecu.
Replaced it and it was fine. I was told later that it was probably leaking capacitors that I could have replaced!.
