Little things with the RX, a few questions
subiemech85 replied to Caboobaroo's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I hope my little wonderful diagram works :-p leave the turbo duty solenoid connected electrically, otherwise it throws a code, but you do not need any lines connected to it. Just run a line from turbo outlet to wastegate. run line from intake manifold to a T with one line going to the boost sensor for the dash, it's small and round, and the other to the canister from the canister one line goes to the hvac, and the other goes to the 4wd / dif lock -
or if the covers "happen to break" don't bother putting them back on!

where is it? what does it look like? the fsm makes no sense on the issue '89 rx loves to give me intermittent ECS light and 22 also has a bad habit of being grumpy when I try to lug it driving about 20 mph, floor it, usually in 3+ it goes "blah" and feel jerks 3 times then makes good boost about 2k rpm it's so annoying it disagrees with me when i try to drive it like a diesel, (keep the rpm low, and floor it after every gear change)

subiemech85 replied to mudduck's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
for easy access pull down the glovebox, just pull in the sides and push down I've found that the most convenient place for my uniden pc68ltw is standinng up on the floor leaning against the console. I had a conversation with a dirver, and both ends sounded like talking on a telephone also had swr meter set about 1.5 with 2 watts and a little wil on the rear gate of the rx drove 1,000+ miles with it on, no "regular" radio :drool: -
you should have 12v from one side for all connectors one set usually has 12v on both sides, mine's black
