Wow, i love MR2, sell it to me.... lust..... sorry.......
USA Car?????????
its sucking fuel, can be lots of things
got the FSM yet?, keeping a very old car like this going without the big book is near impossible...... really... why work blind>?
you got the 4A non turbo engine>?

1.6 L 4A-GE DOHC I4 (AW11)

wiki (USA)
As a power plant, Toyota chose to use the naturally aspirated 4A-GE 1,587 cc inline-four engine, a dual overhead-cam, four-valve-per-cylinder motor.[5] This engine was also equipped with DENSO electronic port fuel injection and a variable intake geometry ("T-VIS"), giving the engine a maximum power output of 112 hp

first what engine then what fuel injection.
Study the Denso system first, then trouble shoot.
If I had this, car i'd :
1: make brakes perfect.
2: fix all fuel leaks, every inch checked,!!!! top reason for midengine car fires...
3: compression on all cylinders (WOT) 150PSI or more.
4: full tune up with all fluids. really !
5: i'd then check all the EFI sensors and have the the injectors pro cleaned off car, (sonic cleaned)
6: engine thermosat holding water temp at 180F or more steady!!!
7: back flush every inch of cooling system and sub parts.

after all that id diagnose it.
starting with fuel pressure tests , all 6 of them.
ask.

TSB's the update MR2 engine signal (spark) generators (sensor)
old ones are no good.
bid away

    now the MPG bad list, its huge, but will do short list, brakes drag? transmission slipping got M/T? engine is bad, so low compression, bad spark (tuneup) bad fueling, (lots of tests) and fuel pressure on the moon, not 30 psi , but 60, bad reg. leaking or clogged injectors. lots more.

Hello I have a toyota mr2 86 and the coolant is boiling inside of the overflow container and there is small coolant drip from radiator in front of car. In need of suggestions

I guarantee you, the water is not boiling in the reservoir. There is no heat source there, and even if it came out of the radiator boiling, by the time the coolant traveled down the hose to the tank, it would have lost too much heat to boil.

But if steam is coming out of your radiator into that tank, it would look like it was boiling.

It sounds like you have a radiator leak, and that you are therefore low on coolant, and the engine is overheating. With the car stone cold, open the radiator cap and top off the coolant as full as you possibly can, then replace the cap. While you have the cap in your hand, inspect the rubber gasket that seals it when it is installed. If that gasket is not in good shape, the normal operating pressure will force coolant into the radiator excessively, leaving not enough to cool the engine.

After a short drive that is sufficient to reach operating temperature plus about 5 or 10 minutes, and then allowing the car to fully cool, open the radiator to see if it is still full. It should have developed no substantial amount of space above the coolant surface, it should still be full.

If there is space, perhaps there was some vapor trapped somewhere, so try one more time. But if you are developing space in the radiator, you have a leak.

My 1986 toyota mr2 keeps heating up past 210. i put a new thermastat in and nothing.

Be sure that the fan is moving enough air across the radiator and be sure the radiator is clear of any debris. If it is and you're sure the system is full of coolant, have the radiator rodded out or replaced. This is most likely the issue. Hope this helps, good luck!

Having trouble with linkage,hard to get in gear 1986 toyota MR2

Check the bushings at the motor for the shift cables, worn or binding. The MR2 club has a link to a company who makes brass replacement bushings.
