Looking to replace the original tape deck headunit in my 87’tercel. I’ve got an aftermarket jvc unit and beforehand I start tearing things apart I’d like to make sure I have everything I need. I’ve never replaced such so it’s all very new to me. Is it a matter of disconnecting the old unit and copyi...

Hi there, looking to buy a clutch cable possibly in town, have one enroute with rock auto but usually takes a week or two to get here, need car for work in the meantime!

Any help appreciated, thanks
Andrew

Clutch cable was down to strings!
Shipping usually takes quite awhile, checking for one in town.
Thanks

It isn’t too bad of a drive, from Victoria B.C to Parksville. Just over and hour if there isn’t any traffic on the one highway up island!! About 170km. Speaking of distributor, I noticed a slight oil leak from where the dizzy meets the block on the outside, would that be the distributor mounting gas...

Wasn’t too sure where to post so apologies in advance!

Going on a decent length voyage in my terc, it’s made it plenty before and here’s hoping it does again (knock on wood) however what are some bits you won’t leave without just incase??

I was thinking an extra clutch cable and drive belt??

Hey there, today I've notice s while the car is warming up there is a faint screech, kind of scratchy noise that comes from what I believe to be the alternator area? Could this be the alt failing?

Thanks
Andrew

Any one have luck with either one of these?

Hey all clutch cable snapped on me right at the pawl and release sector area, I'm thinking perhaps the new clutch could have just worn out the thirty year old cable via too much tension??? As I have already replaced a release sector which snapped in half and believed it to be just an old tired part ...

Does anyone know If 15" Mini Cooper wheels would work? 4x100, just not sure on center.

I must have been delusional.... just glanced at my wheels and you are correct sir. Well shit, best bet to find some steelies I suppose. Darn I was really hoping to use these as I love the look.

This is the sort of 14" wheel I've got.

Wasn't sure where to post this, apologies if In the wrong place.
I'm wondering if anyone knows if a LT195/75r14/D 99r bf Goodrich all terrain t/a ko's would fit my stock tercel 14's, "the square/block style wheel"?

Hey all! Thanks Petros! I'll be giving that a try this weekend, not much in terms of "good Dino gear oil" I have been able to find only 75-90 in synthetic castrol at my local lordco, they didn't have any 75-90 in a decent brand, I've bought some 80-90 Dino oil from Canadian tires own brand...

Thanks all! Another question I've got is, Would running Castrol full synthetic 75-90 cause gear clashing, since owning the car I have only been able to shift into first at a complete stop, and 2nd as well as 3rd grind a little if your not slow enough with the shift.

Alrighty, sounds good. I'll have to go pick up one of those!
Thanks a bunch!
