I've watched a few of these valve seal replacement videos now while working up the courage to try and do it myself and I have to say, this one is the one that makes it look the easiest. Thanks!
I'm in the middle of doing a valve seal job on my MR2, though surprisingly not smoking that much when running even at high rpm but cold starts was fuck me! Let's make some smoke! I've had it for years but now the first starts are concerning not only that I have a tiny amount of pre detonation going on and was told oil in the combustion chamber lowers the octain rating of your fuel which would explain it, always had it but getting worse cylinder 2 and 3 are wet with old defiantly not rings as compression is spot on, valve seals on the exhaust side had turned to dust when I took them out, inlet we boarderline, still replacing them though, it's a pig of job on the this car so much striping just to get at them, the rope trick works a treat!
Hey Wyatt willis I used the cheap and very effective way of compressing rope into the cylinder. The rope is fed through the spark plug hole. You should crank the motor by hand to compress the rope little by little feeding more into the cylinder.
Kyle Phillips alright, how did you make sure it was in the right stroke for timing purposes? And I hear you can pressurize the cylinder and do the same without using rope
Wyatt willis TDC TDC make sure you have your cylinders back to TDC and your cams at TDC. Check out the supraforums.com for write ups. They break everything down in some posts

what type of tool are you using?
How did you keep the valves from Falling in the cylinder?

Has anyone ever herd of 2jzge's developing holes on the heads on the rightside of the spark plug ports?
