Sightings

So on my way to Safeway last night I followed a T4 from almost right in front of my house all the way to the Safeway I was headed to. He also pulled in to Safeway. I wanted to catch him to ask if he was one of the members on the forum, but was unable to. My house is in the Admiral district of West S...

Re: stick shift won't move in cold weather

I wonder if grease would work better than oil. I used marine grease on mine.

Perfect! Thanks Petros!

Re: Another Seattle AL25 member

Definitely was the AAP. It's running way better now and fuel economy has returned to normal. Does anyone have a fix for the AAP? It would be nice to have it working right now since it is so cold. In other news I installed LED lights all around the exterior of the ride. Except for the turn signals. I...

Re: Headlight Relay Harness Upgrade

I live in Seattle so I got them from a small local retailer called Amazon.com
It is half the price I paid for them when I supplied them for my 4Runner.

Re: Headlight Relay Harness Upgrade

Thought I would contribute. Recently trucklite bought Rigid industries. So now two of the largest LED automotive lighting manufacturers are one company. The prices of their products has gone down considerably. I had bought the trucklite LED headlights for my 4Runner and loved the simple plug and pla...

Re: 83 Tercel Sedan cooling fan problem

Yeah sounds like the problem lies in the wire that travels between the relay and the fan connector. Double check that the connectors on both ends aren't corroded and that they have good spring tension to make contact on the terminal blades.
