the spyder posted:The good news is: it runs! After replacing missing hardware, check valves, installing a new TPS, and replacement vac/pressure reservoirs- it started. No leaks, no smoke, buuuut it idled at 2800rpm... Whomever installed the fuel rails forgot the primary injector body to iron orings. It's a four hour job to tear it down and replace the $8 orings... drat it. Well, guess I know what I'm doing tonight When you're working on someone's car and something like this comes up, who pays for those 4 hours? It seems like a lot of the cars you get have stuff like this crop up that either PO's or the owners have either hosed up or omitted. I guess that comes with the territory when you specialize in something that has such a heavy modding community.

If Paypal doesn't come through, and the guy's auction explicitly stated that the engine was in good condition/good compression, you can go after him for breach of implied warranty. Jalopnik link

I don't know my old Toyotas...I'm guessing that's an old Celica/Supra? 80-something model?

Good deal, I believe you can fit a 13B in it Rear window louvers look good on it, too.

From what I've seen on youtube, the work on that Merc was expensive and a pain in the rear end! Life on coils will be much better than the adjustable suspension though.
