Re: We have lost one of our own.

Yes, I saw that. Still too pricey for me and I have my hands full.

Re: New Member. New Tercel!

zaru,

The FSM is under the General tab, under General “stickies”.

We do have a great group here, but the 3E engine was the next generation, so you won’t find much here. I’m surprised it still used a carb? If you post with questions, there may be some helpful responses. Good luck.

Re: Bolt ID Question

I’ve fought these some, but not too bad. I keep the stock “thin” drain plugs on the bottom, my 15/16” socket has always removed them with a breaker bar and a little care. About any side fill plug I remove gets swapped with a new 19mm plug with a nice tall top. O’Reilly AP carries them and they sure ...

Re: Texas T4WD 7AGE Project

Not yet, I’m a shade tree mechanic, so I try things that make sense to me. I just added a 1/2” steel plate to mount front calipers on the rear. Calipers swap sides to keep the bleeders on top and hoses are added. I’m still driving with zip ties holding the brake lines/hoses in place. I had to remove...

Re: Texas T4WD 7AGE Project

Fantastic work sir! I’ve never been into a combination brake valve. However, I added stock Tercel calipers (front) to the rear of my car and have 4 wheel disc brakes now. I did not change the combination valve and it drives well. It may pissibly lick the back brakes a little early in very icy, slick...

Re: New member and more importantly car in Australia

Welcome CD,

While the pic shows vented rotors, they indicate “solid” in the literature. If you want vented rotors, you can step up to the MR2 rotor/caliper swap.

Re: Pulse pump missing? Smog issue

I’m not much help, no smog testing in rural Missouri. You might start a new thread specific to smog testing. I would expect petros and a few others to reply.

Re: Pulse pump missing? Smog issue

dak, You don’t need to mess with the air filter at all for the stock set up. The AS filter just bolts to the fender area and pulls clean air in from there to likely improve the catalytic converter “burn”. Air flow is controlled by the reed valve and I don’t know how much this may help you on smog. C...

Hey Nordical,

I picked up an 87’-88’ grill not long ago. I’ll share pics tomorrow.

Re: Something broken with the *forums*? Post here!

It should be right under the “section” name in red. Go to the General “tab” and look under “General”.

Re: Which mechanical fuel pump

JJ, I’m not an authority, but to my knowledge, in North America, all Tercels got the 1.5L 3A engine from the factory. The 1.6L was sold in other cars here in NA, but not the Tercel. I have a junkyard 4A from an 85’ Chevrolet Nova in my Tercel. The engine blocks are identical, but the pans, brackets,...

Re: Blacktop 20v 4AGE In my Wagon

Toyotise,
Sounds like you have the “right” idea. Mmm hmm. Goptta post us some videos of cruising up those forested interstate hills holding 65mph. Mmm hmm. 20 Valve!


Is this a Slingblade (movie) reference?
