I need to pay more attention but that humming/ whining noise at idle seems to have gone away... I'm now thinking that it might have been from that same hose when it had a small crack... the leak eventually turned into a hole causing a rough idle... I hope that was it... definitely need to replace ALL hoses when I get engine rebuild...

W1 = 1st Gen MR2 W2 = 2nd Gen MR2 W3 = 3rd Gen MR2 A7 = 3rd Gen Supra E8 = 4th Gen Corolla Now of course the first letter added on is easy, it's just the  engine  family code. AW1 = 1st Gen MR2 with A-series engine SW2 = 2nd Gen MR2 with S-series engine ZZW3 = 3rd Gen MR2 with ZZ-series engine MA7 = 3rd Gen Supra with M-series engine GA7 = 3rd Gen Supra with G-series engine JZA7 = 3rd Gen Supra with JZ-series engine AE8 = 4th Gen Corolla with A-series engine Finally, the hard part, the last number, Toyota will have a "base" number that the chassis is, usually this is the model with the lowest engine family revision. Same engine family revisions get the same final chassis number. AW10 = 1st ...
