Petros: sent you a PM

Whoa! Didn't expect anybody to reply... It has power steering (works just fine) and it "has" AC but that has never worked since I have owned it. I never looked into why it doesn't work. Rust? Yes, it has developed on spot below the rear-most window on the driver's side. Why selling? Well, ...

EDIT: NOW IN CT: https://tercel4wd.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=13346#p105391 Well, its the end of the line for me.... My 1985 T4WD originally came from Texas (I got it there with about 160,000 on it) and so survived longer in the NE than most Tercels. It has just short of 250,000 on it now. ...

OK, will take another look focusing on the wheel bearing. It is definitely coming from the right hand side. Thanks for the responses.

OK, maybe its a "roar" not a whine. The back story: My daughter lost the tranny in her beloved 85 T4WD and that prompted me to reexamine fluid levels in both my tranny and rear diff (I also have a 85 T4WD). Almost immediately after adding gear oil to the diff, I notice a whine/roar coming ...

Synth, are you there?

Well, she has listed the car on this board (to scrap it). I sent some PMs to people that responded but have never heard back from anyone and I think she just decided it was time to move on. I don't think she has had any responses (to the for sale ad) but, seriously, there are a lot of nice bits stil...

Synth,

Thanks so much, my daughter was/is in the process of posting to this site to scrap the car--- I will send you a PM. I have no idea what failed other than that the shop told us the input shaft and the gears were stripped.

Edit: just sent you an email (not a PM) via this site.

Petros, thanks for the replies. My daughter lives in Leavenworth but the car broke down while she was visiting relatives in Ellensburg (and is sitting there now while we try to figure out what to do next). She is traveling and won't be back in WA for a week. Xirdneh replied to a post of mine in a di...

xirdneh, Thanks for the reply. As far as I know, my daughter's car was not leaking, but that may have developed since I last saw it. At this point, I don't know what will become of the car, but if we scrap it, I'll certainly let folks here know. I''d like to try to save the car (she loves it) and th...

I just posted more details on the repair section but the short story is my daughter is in WA state and just lost the transmission in her 1985 T4WD (6 sod manual transmission). Hoping to find someone in that region that has a tranny they want to sell…..?? I'm not in the area so trying to help her fro...

a little more info: just got off the phone with the mechanic in Washington and he said it is NOT just the input shaft but that the internal gears are stripped out too so that she needs a complete transmission.

Hello All, my daughter has a 1985 T4WD (as do I) but she lives in Washington state and I live in Rhode Island… I just got a call and the shop where her car was towed just told her that the problem she suffered is that the transmission drive shaft is completely stripped and she needs a new transmissi...

Private e-mail sent (hope you're still selling parts from the '85)

I "broke" the driver's door handle on my 1985 T4WD daily driver. Gettiing in through the passenger side is getting old. I live in New England where there are NO relics in the parts yards. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated (I have posted a listing on Row52). Also need (though th...
