Re: Quick update

Darn I wish you were close to Seattle. My car came with an extra set of mounted tires in the back of it. Not a whole lot of tread on them, but I'm gonna have to pay to get rid of them. :cry:

Re: Pipe & o-ring need replaced?

I think your only option for the pipe would be to find a used replacement in better condition. That is horrible corrosion for a part like that

Re: Use of the word "INCLINOMETER"

Interesting! I guess in nautical language they call it an inclinometer, same as how we refer to it in our Tercels. In aviation we call It an attitude indicator.

Re: First issue

The crankshaft pulley bolt on my 1KZ-te turbo diesel is torqued to 360 ft-lbs. the Milwaukee electric impact wrench I have removed it as if it had been hand tightened by a two year old. That thing is a beast!

Re: Two tercels with leaking power steering, wrong fluid?

I'm just curious, but why would you want to convert from power steering to manual steering.

Re: Another Seattle AL25 member

I got a long length of silicon vacuum line in the mail yesterday. So I'm gonna start going through the vacuum system and replace all the lines. Any suggestions before I get started?

Re: Back brakes no fluid getting to them!

Yeah it's almost certainly the portioning valve. I have pulled them apart before to find them so clogged you would think someone had stuffed it full off clay. Often a good cleaning and a seal kit is all it needs.

Re: ISO SR5 Inclinometer

I have inclinometer a in both my tercel and 4Runner. I don't think it would matter functionally about the angle since they both have provisions for calibrating them. However sun glare might be an issue if the lens is at a funny angle.
