P0016 + misfires

[thebarber]

well, i thought it might finally be time to bring this to the forum as im sure bluevitz/Jamie, CrankyOldMan/Sam, and echo_HRS/Steve are tired of me bothering them individually.

here's where im at:

I pulled the blitz supercharger off the #QCyaris (a canadian market 2007 yaris 5dr hatchback 5 speed manual) and put it back to stock with the spare engine i got from TMontague/Trevor about 6 years ago. I put the QCyaris on the road and it drove ok for about a week when it started to idle really badly and threw P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304 codes as well at P0010, P0012 (iirc), and P0016 codes. Now, my memory is a bit foggy at this point, but I don't recall having those last 3 codes all at the same time, but they've shift around a bit as i replaced parts.

to note: the car had what sounded like timing chain rattle since buying the car supercharged. it sounded initially like it was transmission, but as i dived into the project, the noise seemed to be on the timing chain side towards the back of the engine.

when swapping out the supercharger, i realized the VVT solenoid was broken at the base and to push out the rest of it by opening up the valve cover and going from the inside. trevors old engine had another VVT solenoid in it. i also had to get a new VVT plug and wire it in as one wire pulled out of the plug.

i figured out the spark plugs were 1 step colder so i had some new plugs kicking around from a previous echo that i put in. didnt solve anything.

ive swapped out the injectors for other 1nzfe ones i had kicking around. solved nothing.

i swapped out the cam sensor with the extra i had in trevors engine. iirc, it didnt fix anything.

pretty sure i swapped out the crank sensor from trevors engine, still nothing.

i swapped out the timing chain, tensioner, and guides from trevors engine last week and finally buttoned it up yesteray. charged the battery. cranked it without the injectors or coil packs plugged in to move the oil thru the engine (thanks crankyoldman!). started it up and it still runs lumpy, throwing misfires (p0300 thru p0304) as well as the P0016.

what i feel i need to do at this point is double check that my VVT solenoid is working ok, bench test the cam sensor, test the cam sensor plug/wiring (in the car), bench test the crank sensor, and test the crank sensor wiring (in the car).

another item i need to dig out is the wiring for the blitz fuel controller. iirc i just reconnected same-colour wires when i took out the fuel controller. i can't recall if one of the wires is a crank signal? maybe something rattled loose in that first week?

if anyone else has a ideas of where to start or where to look, id really appreciate the help!
