Hi guys
I'm new to this site and was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue. I've recently bought a Toyota Celica 1994 2.0 Gt St202 (going by the chassis) Japanese import. It was a non runner, started and stalled. The fuel pipes were leaking badly underneath the car too so I thought it could be due to air getting drawn in. I was hoping to fix it up and keep it as I've always liked the mk6 style. When I initially start it up the idle seems a lot higher than I think it should be. It idles around 1500rpm, it idles fine though. After around one minute it starts to slightly splutter then misfire and eventually cut out. I've temp repaired the fuel pipes to see if that would fix it before completely making new ones up, but it's still the same. I've replaced the distributor cap and rotor arm as they didn't look in the best condition as is, fuel filter. Coolant temp sensor. Tried a new ignitor. Tried a second hand fuel pressure release valve, distributor which my mate had from his Mr2 but no luck. The car is slowly killing me 😂 oh I also found a leaking capacitor in my ecu which I replaced but still the same. I managed to source a second hand ecu which came out of a running car, but exactly the same. Oh and there are no fault codes, to make it even more fun 😂 if you've made it this far, well done!! Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'd really like to fix this car up as bar the running issue and a few other mechanical things it's in great condition for its age and would be a shame to scrap it.
Thanks
