I suppose I should specify that it is a manual transmission, didn't cross my mind in the original post as I've never owned an automatic car!

Hey all, long time no post.

I have a spare transmission I would like to spruce up a bit. Of course I know that there are very few parts still floating around, so I was wondering what I can/should do to this transmission before it ends up in a car where it is far harder to work on. Seals, bearings ...

do you notice any symptoms while driving, LBC? I've noticed lots of rotational play in probably all of the t4's I've had and wondered about it, but once I replaced all the worn front end stuff I didn't notice any clunks or anything like that. So I think it might be normal, or at least ...

Is a sloppy pinion shaft the usual suspect for what I'm describing? (And if it is can it be fixed?)

Hello again.

Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but does anyone know how much, if any, parts compatibility there is between the front and rear differentials on our cars? The reason for asking is that my front diff seems to have excessive rotational play while in gear, and before tearing into it ...

Chris, I gave this some thought last night and decided that I will bypass the heater core and keep the car driveable for now. We plan on moving in the next couple years and I don't want to hand bomb a transmission, engine, doors, etc. It's kind of a shame because the new t4 needs a few parts that ...

If you do decide to part it out I've been on the hunt for the fuel sending lines from the gas tank for years now. You're on the island right? If so I'll be in your neck of the woods until the end of the month. Will travel for tercel parts haha.

Hopefully they turn out okay, the image was very pixelated so the sticker had to be quite small.

Just bought 10 of them!

Let me know how they look when they arrive!

I've been comparing prices between rock auto and parts avatar a lot, the beauty of parts avatar is that shipping is free over $50, so I got a gas tank through them for maybe 1/3 the cost of getting it shipped from rock auto. Their selection is much worse than rock auto however, and I have had to ...

Oh my, this whole catalog is amazing

Especially this page... Gives one hope that someone, somewhere, has a tercel with some of these parts installed. I would love to see it in person.

Chevy has a long history with Isuzu, even the red blooded American staple the duramax is the result of the Isuzu/chev joint venture. I'll bet that chevette would be a sweet little car, especially with these gas prices.

I would like an excuse for a road trip south but if it's in the summer I likely won't be able to attend due to the nature of my job
