K guys so its been months now and my celica is still down on power. I've had other people who have had 6th gen st's drive it and they say the same. Like I stated earlier in the thread my friend advanced the timing almost all the way to get the thing operating normal or at least semi-normal. However there is still a noticeable power loss and I'm having trouble diagnosing it. I'm over at my friends house and we are going to vacuum test it tomorrow as well as retard the timing back to factory to try and trace the problem. If you guys have any suggestions as to what else might cause the power loss it would be greatly appreciated.
The following have been ruled out: spark plugs(replaced) spark plug wires(replaced) fuel filter(replaced) injectors(do not contain water) No check engine light or other idiot lights so NO code to diagnose Distributor has no water and appears to be working fine Thanks again guys -------------------- |

has there been any other work done. did it just randomly one day decide to not have any power? was there any major maintenance done on it around the time that it started actin up? i.e. timing belt, water pump, oil pump..... blah blah. does the exhaust tone sound normal? like does it sound like a subaru? (it may sound funny but i had a buddy throw a rocker on an sr20 on the intake side and it sounded exactly like a boxer engine, this resulted in a bent valve by the way). does it pass a compression test?
