I just got a fresh 7a-fe swap into my 1995 ST. Since I't been done, the car bogs and sometimes dies in early morning startup. I thought it was an injector problem, swapped them with no success. I also adjusted throttle opening.
Recently, my clutch engagement has been noticably different, the clutch engages unless the pedal is absolutely buried. This only happens periodically, specifically if I have the clutch depressed for a long period of time. Today, I put the car into reverse and after backing out, it would not come out of gear and was slowly creeping backward although I had the clutch fully depressed. The engine bogged and died, as if I couldn't get the clutch to disengage. After pumping the clutch and restarting the car, the vehicle ran fine. I still have sporadic issues with the clutch engaging unusually early through pedal travel. Is there an adjustment I can look into to seperate the clutch farther from the flywheel? What do you think my problem is? I'm driving my car like it's a DSM (keeping off the clutch, like 2g DSMers do to avoid crankwalk) and I would really enjoy going back to being able to ride the clutch for quick stops and turns. Any Ideas? -------------------- 1995 Celica ST - Riceball grocery getter. I saved her from Neons, 19" rims and TVs. All-stock save a weld-on muffler (does that count?) and V-AFC.
