Toyota mr2 mk2 New & Used Spares
Where can you have a supercharger rebuilt on a 1988 Toyota MR2?
Correction, no the Mk1 MR2(Aw11) was available in supercharged form in 1988 and 1989, I own an 89. The MK1 MR2 was not available with a turbo. It featured many advancements in forced induction at the time such as putting an electromagnetic clutch on the supercharger when not in use to improve fuel economy, and featured an LED light on the dash to tell you when manifold pressure was positive(boost). The superchargers are quite rare but some do replace them with turbos if they break or to get more power, as the stock ecu and engine was built to be forced inducted engine (supercharged or turbo charged) They are quite rare but I would look at Japanese engine importers.

Will the Toyota 1mzfe engine work in a 1991 Toyota MR2?
Yes you need the turbo transmission and you will need to fabricate one new motor mount, but it pretty much drops right in, and is actually lighter than the original four banger, because the 1mzfe is all alluminum.

How do you change convertible top on mr2 Toyota?
If it's a targa top [one with two roof panels] rather than a full convertible there is a twist button on the sold fabric panel wich you turn when the panel drops down pull it owards you and it should come out. With the glass panel you have a lever above the door opening flip it round 180 and lift the panel up. Store both pieces behind seat.Can't help you if it's a full convertible sorry except to use a old shrink joke and say it's got to want to change first.
What would make half of the lights and outlets on a circuit work while the other half go out?
Well, either they are NOT all on the same circuit...OR...theres a disruption of power to the remaining lights. Generally when installing multiple lights on the same circuit they'll be in parallel from the switch. There are min. 2 wires going to each light a "Hot" Conducter and a "Neutral" Conducter (forget ground for now). To graphically demonstrate whatsgoing on with your lights, get a piece of paper and pencil. Draw a Ladder that's sitting on its side. Make the Ladder have 4 steps. You should now be looking at 2 long horizontal lines with 4 vetical lines intersecting them. Name the top horizontal line "Hot" and the Bottom horizontal line "Neutral". From left to right name each of the four Vertical lines "L1, L2, L3, and L4" These signify your lights (if you had 4 lights). Now in between L2 and L3 make an X on the 2 Horizontal lines (the ladders legs). The "X" signifies whats preventing power from reaching your 3rd and 4th Lights. This Diagram also shows why your 1st and 2nd lights still work. What Id do is Check for a hidden switch somewhere, or Wire damage, or even a GFI socket (the plug in your bathroom above the sink with the Test/Reset buttons)....Find what "X" is and you'll solve your problem. -Good Luck!
What is the best size tires for 18 x 8 inch rim fit on 1990 mr2?
With 18x8 rims you stand a good chance of rubbing on the front fender wells. 17x7 is the max you should go in the front without modifications like fender flares.
tirerack.com has a vehicle specific conversion table for rim sizes I would look there.
Does it have a choke? get it fixed.
How do you remove the dash board on a 1991 mr2 to change the bulbs on the speedo fuel gauge etc?
1. Start at the gear shifter and remove the plasic housing.
2. Next remove the plastic housing around radio/ ignition.
3. remove drivers side under panels (plastic housing under stearing column). Also remove the housing around the stearing column. You may have to reach back and remove two bolts that hold the stearing column at bay. (Mine had a tilt wheel that allowed enough wiggle room to remove dash guage cluster without removing these.)
4. remove screws that hold the gauge cluster. The gauge cluster should then be able to pull out about 1 or 2 inches. That should be enough room to use an angled needle nose to pinch and remove the speedometer cable from the right side (should see a black cable.) You may have to give a slight twist but be sure to depress the tab lock when grabbing with the pliers.
5. The gauge cluster should then pull out 5 to 6 inches. This is enough to disconnect the rest of the (3) cables connected at the rear. Once these are disconnected the cluster should slide right out. I recommend replacing all the bulbs while you have the gauge cluster out. A nice touch is to replace with LEDs.
6. GO SLOW! as not to crack these pastic parts when removing. Jesus Saves!
How many seats are there in a 1991 Toyota MR2?
MR2 = ..... M=Mid engined R=Rear wheel drive 2=Two seater (*emblems on early MR2's read: Mid-engine Runabout)
Why do you have to use premium gas in your supercharged 2001 buick ultra?
Yes. The computer is set up for Premium gas. The car won't run as well on regular. Additionally a supercharged engine by nature forces more air and fuel into the cylinder per cycle creating greater compression of the fuel/air mixture. This creates greater heat. This greater heat can cause the air/gasoline mixture to ignite prior to the spark plug firing. Higher octane gas is not as combustible as lower octane gas. It resists premature combustion better and thus your engine fires when it is timed to rather than at some random time when the fuel air mixture gets hot enough to explode.
If an electric window on a Toyota MR2 goes down, but will not go back up, it has probably slipped off the track. There is a cable mechanism that operates the window. The door panel will have to be removed to repair the cable, or put in a new track.
How do you change indicator bulbs on a Toyota MR2?
Put a flat head screwdriver behind the indicator cluster and prize it out. Then just twist out the bulb.

How do you get the engine compartment of a 2000 Mr2 opened if the cable is broken?
Carefully push in the plastic grid above the licence plate. Take a long extension on a #12 socket wrench and take off the 2 bolts holding the latch to the body. Open the hood.
3sfe is different to 3sge. F series are the economy type and 3sge is the real 'DOHC'. They almost have the same mounts but you need to have the ge harness and ecu for it to work properly.
How do you drain fuel in a Toyota MR2?
New cars do not have drainage holes or anything like that. But you can purchase hand pump to suck out fuel of the tank.
Where is the fuel filter located on a 1990 Toyota MR2?
Under the car on the passenger side in front of the rear tire, use ramps or lift. 2 wrenches i think 11/16th and 3/4
