So... check it out. If you CALL KYB, tell them you want rear shocks from a 1980 t-bird with lower bushings from a tercel 4wd they will be able to give you a part number that will bolt right in, you can even ask for any length travel in addition to the stock tercel. They also have the replacements fo...

Yep, diagnosed egr, and egr vacuum modulator, both working, the egr tube is not clogged at all and looks brand new inside and out. Replaced filter in egr module with cotton ball.....should be fine, not like it provides any resistance to anything except open air. Could be TVSV, I didn't understand th...

This is an awesome thread, love the ghetto quick fixes, always nice to know a few tricks. Thanks for the awesome responses.

The PCV was the wrong one, changed it and oil seal is holding fine though I only had it running for about 20 minutes the other day, if there was a problem like before I would have dropped 2 quarts immediately, nothing leaks now.

rings are good, no smoke, not burning any oil, clear exhaust. I replaced the seal again, the original seal I put in had a bend from "tapping" it. Had it running rough the other day, someone messed with my idle set and fuel inlet screws I think, causing me problems, won't start now. I know ...

So, done a ton of work to tercel, just when I think its all good, I get it all back together and now it won't start, anyone close enough to help me figure this out? Do a little tuning? I can give you gas money. If I cannot figure it out, i'm selling it. Let me know. thanks ~ krunk

Ok, to much vacuum on this thing for me. I have replaced everything, needs tuning from someone that can deal with this much vacuum bs on a carb, these carbs are horrible. wish I didnt live in california I would do the weber.

Ok, so I figured out that auto zone gave me the wrong PVC valve, thus giving me to much crank case pressure and blowing my front main seal. I have since changed the timing belt, front cam seal, front main seal, distributor O-ring. I did all this, properly timed motor, cam and crank timed on TDC, dis...

I am thinking of selling my 83 terc. I have all maintenance records. All parts prior to my ownership where replaced with OEM toyota parts. I recently made 5 trips from Santa Rosa, Ca to Sacremento, Ca with absolutely no issues. Amazingly enough we got about 43 MPG on average for every trip( just pas...

Still have not resolved issues with this car, disconnected o2 sensor and it runs pretty good. drove it hundreds of miles lately but temporary tag is expiring tomorrow. We just moved, about 35 miles south of Sacremento. Anyone want to buy a Tercel? it is a 83 sr5 4wd, I like this car alot but seems t...

Thanks for all the help, been rainy and cold lately have not gotten anything done, been trying to get honda to start(another issue). I have all the tools and parts I need to do everything, just trying to motivate to do it. I have been meaning to get some new picks up soon also cause my tercel looks ...

cool, i have under hood vacuum sticker, everything is routed right, problems really started when I replaced o2 sensor, it am idling way lower now and tons of fluctuation and stutter. Poor acceleration now also. I checked routing of vac lines and all looks good, I guess I will have to pick up a vac t...

OK, changed all vacuum lines over from the ones I had to some 7/64" line....then car really runs like shit, anyone know what size ID vacuum line to use? for the metal noodle connections? thanks, after changing all lines over car ran rough idle fluctuates much more, acceleration was horrible, ge...
