1jz problem help

rite when i first got the car it was a non runner changed the ignighter and she came to life and ran fine but in the last week or so it will run fine for a few mins then go spluttery till knock out adjusted the throttel cable and she is ideling fine about 700 ish but battery light and rear parking or booth light and oil and one or two others wont come off the dash
now i swaped over the ecu no joy also checked all fuses i could find there dosent seem to be any gone also disconnected the battery for a few mins to let everything reset still there dose anyone have any ideas

one more thing engine is a bit tapity it was siting up for well over a year i changed the oil for 10w 60 full syn mobil1 and changed the oil filter for the standard denso can anyone shed light on this thanks

Tapity noise sounds like the hydraulic buckets ;)

Is the wiring loom 100% the same? no same/wrong connecter in the wrong place? sounds like the Idle air control valve or the likes...

what do i do with the hydrolic buckets is it serious problem or is it just noise that when i give it a run it might go or change them

im nearly sure the loom is the same i swaped back to the orignal ecu last night and it didn go away.
this just came out of nowhere one day it was fine then the next the lights came up and engine spluttered i also swaped over the fuel control thing under the pass window it done nothin.
any help would be great as i dont fancy runnin it and the egine to go pop i dont really have the cash for a rebuild of two 1jz's at the mo

Dave heres the link to the fault code procedure, you have to download the manual and its in the last few pages. This is where i would start.

Hydraulic buckets wont bring on battery lights, handbrake lights etc. They are mechanical and nothing to do with the electrical system......

i now the engine is a small bit tapity just wondering will giving it a good run reduce it or am i better off changing the buckets now if i can
and what link lad

anyone any ideas for the lights no faults seem to be showing up
