Of course i had to do the timing belt twice - too many bloody marrys - put the old one back in and didnt realize it till next day. Lol Now, i replace b...

Re: automatic transmission

To me, the only rationale for an AT is if you're driving in continual stop-and-go driving, in city traffic. or having a bad knee, like me. It was, i believe, caused by 10 years continuous city driving - San Diego then Va Beach. After I put 185/70/14 tires on, the rpm's was a lot better. before it f...

Re: IS THERE A LIST OF COMPATIBLE 13" & 14" RIMS?

As long as the bolt pattern is 4x100 and the hub is bigger than 54.1 you can get hub centric rings to make the wheel fit. http://www.justforwheels.com/hub-centric-rings.jsp these are the wheels I have, but mine are 4x100, the ones in the picture have 5 bolt holes. https://tercel4wd.com/forums/viewto...

Re: another rough starting thread

One thing you might check first is the AAP diaphragm (on the front right corner of the carb, next to the float bowl, it has a vac line that goes to the TVSV). When that leaks it allow fuel to go almost directly into the intake manifold through the vac line. +1 on the AAP diaph- just disconnect the ...

Re: gas in new filter but no start

she has just a little less room than the tercel. the rear seats fold and tumble and that leaves a lot of flat room. I can put a piece of 8 foot crown molding in the tercel as long as it can bend a little. the same crown molding in the sidekick has to bend a little more for it to fit but not much. ga...

My 2002 VW Cabrio stopped going in reverse (my daughter drives that) and $25...
