I pulled off spark plug wires one by one. 3 and 4 both affected idle, 1 and 2 did not. I verified both plugs were getting spark then I tested compression on 1 and 2. I only tested 1 and 2 since 3 and 4 had power. I also tried switching the wires on 1 and 2 thinking maybe they were crossed by the p.o ...

My engine was ridiculously greasy so I was gonna replace any gasket I could. I have changed a oil pan gasket on a 4wd bronco like Petros mentioned.. pita. If both of yall say they hardly ever leak then Im not gonna worry about it. Actually I just found that my rough running was actually my front two ...

I am doing a clutch and was wondering if the oil pan can be dropped with the trans out? Or does the engine still have to be jacked up to drop it?

I don't desire a bunch of headaches but I dont run from them either. I was thinking of abusing one as much as I could to see how capable ...

Thanks Irowiki for your response. No one seems to be a big fan of the auto's but there is one sitting in a houston pic a part if anyone needs something specific. It hurts me every time I find a rare old car in a pick a part or scrap yard. Sounds like i need to hold out for a manual trans 4wd. Has ...

I guess I gave y'all the wrong Idea from the start. First off let me preface by saying anything can be converted.. If anyone is prepared to put enough money on the table I will prove it. I've seen the underside of a 2wd tercel and already knew that to convert a 2wd tercel to 4wd a tunnel would need ...

I had to sell my 89 toyota corolla awd wagon months ago due to my messy divorce. Now while scrounging a local junk yard I found a tercel 4wd wagon. I like the longitudinal layout a lot better than transverse of most awd cars. I want to take all the 4wd specific parts from the pick a part car to ...
