Re: Adjusting headlight

there is a rod that connects to the motor, all you have to do is disconnect it and reposition it to a desired setting, i believe it is a 14mm bolt...really easy..basically you want the rod and the connecting lever to be both pointing straight with each other when you bolt it in, assuming you have th...

Re: AE86 Issues :(

update - so the i unplug the tps sensor and the idle stabilizes but at a higher rate, around 2k+...could it be that the tps is bad? also the pipe leading from the back of the water pump to the rear of the engine...is it okay to block this pipe off?

Re: 4age 16v Distributors

the one from the mr2/aw11 is exactly the same (considering it came off a 4agze), except the wiring, different connectors coming off the dizzy...you can re-wire it to make it work though.

Could this be caused by the fuel pump always being on? Also as a side note i replaced ...

Basically, my gauge cluster lights don't work and my fuel pump relay doesn't turn on automatically(I have to open the relay and hold down the copper plate for it to move, so at least i know it is getting power to it).

it depends on what state you are in...if it is California, i just did the same thing. After you pay the registration fee ($80 or so) you will have to show proof of insurance and get a star smog test...if that engine isn't supposed to be in that car then you will fail...i put a 4agze block into my ae...
