I purchased this bellhousing on eBay for my swap, but ended up going with a hydraulic throw out bearing and using a automatic bellhousing instead. Paid $425, but asking $325. I will pay for shipping and handling if it's within the US.

So that particular technician didn't care if the code was there or not? Was it your friend or the tech that kept the selector off the side of the auto-transmission and set it to neutral before removing it? I don't understand how a shifter could be out of alignment.

Thank you sir! I'm gonna call and make my appointment. I'll let you know how it turns out. In the mean time, the car is still for sale. :D

No response to that last question huh? LOL! That's par for the course.

Could you let me know which station(s) you used to pass 1uz swaps in the past?

I've been told to do that and have considered. What's stopped me is I figured the notes of the past appointments would all go into the same database and the rules would all be the same. It's probably worth a shot anyway.

I forgot to add the asking price. $5000 obo

Thank you Lex! That's a great compliment coming from the site owner. I'm sure you've seen it all!

I went to get it BAR'd at the American River College Station and they hooked up a Snap-On MT2500, "The Red Brick", to the diagnostic port under the dash. They told me that they were unable to detect the data for the Park/Neutral Safety Switch which tells the ECU the shifter position P/N/R/D/2/1...

Well, the time has come to sell the Cressida. I tried to get this car passed by the CA referee, but to no avail. Came oh so close, yet oh so far. They are very picky. Anywho, I need a truck and a daily driver, so she must go. Everything on this car works except for the cruise control, but...

I may not be getting spark and it might not be the injector after all. Doing some tests, so we'll see.

Here is a picture. I wanted to be sure of the color because I think it looks light blue to me. :biggrin: ihiryu, if this is the one you have, I'll take it. Thanks, LaFave

The fuel injector for the #1 cylinder on my 1uz is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced. Anyone have a spare out there that they are willing to part with? Please let me know. Thanks, LaFave

I have the exact same problem. I'm guessing either no spark or a sticking fuel injector. I'm leaning toward the injector because of the excessive consumption of fuel.

I love Minilites.
