my 92 turbo wont start... - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

i had left town for a few months and my aunt drove my car with out my permission.... i soon get a call from my friend with him telling me the intake pipe to my turbo is messed up and now the car spits out black smoke and that he has to full throttle in order to get it to turn over

i have fixed the pipe that was busted and now going to try to clean the MAF but would there be another problem?

As long as you fixed the issue you shouldnt really have any permanent damage if it was just an intake pipe problem.

What exactly happened to the intake pipe?

well i fixed it for the time being, i got a cuppler for the pipe ( the pipe had tape on it when i bought it but didnt know till the problem came up ) so now i need to look for a new or used intake pipe for the turbo.

what happened was the MAF had a wire that broke off when my aunt hit a speed bump to fast ( and my Mr Deuce is lowered

stupid aunt...) so i rewired the MAF and the car is turning over and idling nicely now but when i drive it tends to want to cut off.

i dont want to pay $100 for the new pipe from toyota yet and i have only found 1 MR2 in a junk yard so far, if anyone knows where there is a good source of MR2s in a junk yard around Los Angeles it would help alot.

Hopefully nothing got sucked into the turbo and damaged the compressor wheel or went into a cylinder.

Your AFM is probably messed up. Try to find someone local that will let you borrow theirs to test.
