I have a vehicle exactly like yours, in order to remvove that pulley (I have recently replaced the timing belt on my vehicle!) put the socket on.

1986 Silver upper, black lower, orange brake rotors & drums, black rims with trim rings and chrome lug nuts. Tried to post a pic, it was to large. I did get the vehicle to run rough today. Never thought of rebuilding the carburetor, that is a good idea. I have plenty of spark so I am in the process ...

Break it down to the basics: no rust, good glass, no blue or black smoke coming from the exhaust. If it then passes your test drive, then by all means buy it!

Where do I look for the problem?

I have an 1987 Toyota Tercel SR5
