Car is an 86.6 7MGE Supra.  I need to get information
on fixing cruise control.  The control switch I think
is the problem but it is not the same switch as shown
on the TSRM.  Does anyone have TSRM for an 86.5 cruise
control section that they like to share.  I think the
problem lies in the switch since I test out the
actuator and its working.  


AC shaft seal leaking..cheap aftermarket part??


I failed my smog test and need help.  Any advices
would be appreciated.

Here are my test results for California ASM Test:

Car is an 86.5 Supra Non-Turbo 3.0 Liter


		%CO	%O2	HC IN PPM...........	CO IN %.............	NO
IN PPM...........		
TEST	RPM	MEAS	MEAS	MAX	AVE	MEAS	MAX	AVE	MEAS	MAX	AVE
MEAS	RESULTS
15mph	1646	12.0	3.2	130	41	189	0.81	0.13	0.51	1115	399
1505	Fail
25mph	1786	12.6	2.7	105	29	105	0.61	0.11	0.25	945	332
479	Pass
Ignition Timing 8 BTDC on the smog report.
MAX=Maximum allowable value
AVE=Average emissions for passing vehicles
MEAS=Amount measured



When I asked the smog technician if my timing is off
he said that I shouldn't expect 10 BTDC since it
changes according to 
engine to different conditions.  Is he right?  I
thought it's supposed to be 10 BTDC at idle according
to the factory specification in the TSRM manual.  Who
is right?  I looked thru all my older previous smog
reports and I saw that it jumped all around from 9
BTDC, 13 BTDC, and 10 BTDC but they all passed the
smog tests till now.  So does the timing has any major
effect?

Thanks in advance,

Liam N
