hey guys, i've found my terc has been losing power when i gear down and come through a corner - in detail: i will brake before the corner, gear down to 2nd or 3rd, let the clutch out, and give it some gas as i come through the corner, but it's as if i'm not giving it any gas at all. since it's in ge...

Re: help diagnosing a few clunks & shudders...

Hey guys, thanks so much for your advice! I appreciate it in a big way and will talk to my mechanic buddy about all your suggestions. I'm learning bit by bit as we work on it, I have only a little mechanical experience so far so it's a big learning curve but I hope to be able to diagnose problems an...

There are a few sounds it makes that I'd like to diagnose and fix though, nothing serious at this point, but I really want to make this car mint so it lasts me and is reliable. So here are the sounds neither I ...

Re: stupid question seeks easy answer - remove brake light cover

Awesome, thanks so much for your help guys! I'm going to be doing quite a bit of work on mine (I just got it, an '86 SR5 with almost no rust) so I'm sure I'll be asking for lots of tips and advice on here in the near future. I'll post some pics after I paint the SOB.

stupid question seeks easy answer - remove brake light cover

Hey, need to replace the brake light that sits in the rear window in my 86 Terc, how do you get the plastic pins out of the light cover without snapping the heads off?

I know, not the most tech question on the board here but I really hate breaking small stuff like this. Thanks!
