I'm looking for the necessary plastic parts to install rear speakers in my Tercel that came from the factory without them, instead I have two plastic storage boxes.
I'm not sure if the speaker holders are visible once the grilles are in place, but if they are, I need brown ones.

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
@Petros: there probably are some screws, those are not the issue. The horn pad is one seamless piece that flows into the two spokes and they in turn flow into the rim, no seams. The idea being that you'd peel back the pad from the top down towards the spokes. I'm not convinced the 35 year old rubber...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
Thanks for the suggestions. I checked all fuses first. I ended up measuring continuity at the two large plugs underneath the steering column as per the service manual and ended up diagnosing a faulty hazard switch in one position, which led me to believe the mechanism itself was OK. For the next guy...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
I've tried to remove the steering column shroud today, but the top half of the plastic steering column clamshell seems to be impossible to remove without removing the steering wheel. Before I delve into that and risk damaging the very brittle plastics, is there a known issue with the hazard switch o...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
Passed tech inspection yesterday with some margin to spare with regards to emissions. 8) The AAP line was indeed lightly wet with fuel, I capped it off and just before testing pulled a few vacuum lines for good measure, but I suspect the AAP was the only culprit. Replacement looks easy enough if the...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
@Petros: if I find the time today I'll give it a go. I never would have thought it could make such a big impact on the mixture because like you said, most carbs don't have or need one, all my twin Weber and Dellorto cars run just fine without the rat's nest of "helper" systems. I wonder if...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
@Mark: the euro spec cars don't have the overly complicated US emissions system. I know it's running rich because it smokes and the exhaust has a very strong gasoline odor. I've read about the AAP issue, but the car is running so incredibly rich, I assumed there must be more going on. Since I don't ...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
Nice to see the forum's back online! I'm just an occasional lurker here, but happened to just get my second Tercel out of storage and had some issues to sort, for a second I feared the worst and thought this forum was no longer. I must admit I haven't been driving the Tercels much, too many cars and...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
Weird it happened on all 3, I suppose all 3A tstats are of mediocre quality, I'll install a new one, I have a new one somewhere, good brand, non OEM, I wonder what the result will be.

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
Forgot to ask: what's the deal with Tercel thermostats? I've driven three now and owned two and all three had the same symptoms: when moving at any speed, the temperature gets the needle barely off the minimum, when sitting in traffic, temps will climb normally and sit perfectly in the middle of the...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
Tercel Wagons are like hen's teeth in Europe and good ones aren't cheap. You can find some nice first gen Hilux pickups in Greece though for reasonable prices, those are fun, or if you want to get more exotic, a Toyota Stout. Driving a car back to the US would be an expensive undertaking and if you ...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
@Petros: I'm quite happy to have found it. The timing is all wrong for another project, but I couldn't pass it up. :) I never see these as projects anymore. Seems like ever since savings accounts stopped paying interest, people started investing in other things, classic cars being one of them, it ha...

Re: 1984 Euro Tercel 4WD Wagon
We've been having some colder weather lately so I set out to change the coolant. Not yet 5 minutes in the block drain petcock snapped clean off with what I can only describe as an impressive lack of torque for a Toyota product. I had to step back to confirm I wasn't wrenching on an Italian car. Simp...

Re: Hello from Yakima WA, Meet Mr. T
I'm from Belgium YakSr5, wouldn't be surprised if my 4WD Wagon is the last one on the roads in the entire country. No need for a pic I think, it sounds pretty straightforward. It's not a priority anyway, but a good reason to snap up a set of seats if and when I come across some in good condition, es...
