Re: 1983 SR5 Part out

Hi MrWrench, I see you're parting out some stuff! I'm looking for a good 3 port vacuum advance, maybe a whole distributor if I have to. It's for a 1985 California emission 2wd tercel hatchback with the 5 speed. Thank you, i hope all is well for you! 😀

Wtb vacuum advance

Hey everyone, I'm back looking for another 3 port vacuum advance, it's for a 1985 tercel hatchback. This one holds vacuum in just one port, unfortunately. I made a post a few years back, where I wasn't getting vacuum to the advance, it turned out to be a bad gas port on the intake manifold.

1985 Cressida seats into a 1985 tercel?

Can it be done..? My tercel seats are really old and uncomfortable, these Cressida seats from my local Facebook marketplace look really plush

Re: WTB driver door window glass

Ah sorry everyone, I was able to get a window, but I still haven't figured out how to stop shredding my hands trying to get the broken glass out of the metal bracket so I can swap that onto the window that arrived with broken bolt tabs. And thank you for the warning, I've been spammed similarly on ...

Re: Rav4 parts needed, sorry not a tercel

I got the car and it's title back. It'll need a water pump and a timing belt, and cosmetic things, hopefully that's it. And thank you for reminding me of car-part.com. I'm finding a couple of the interior pieces there, at prices that make me want to hold off for now, but they are there.

Rav4 parts needed, sorry not a tercel

Sorry, I know this forum is for tercels but I have a chance to recover my 1997 4wd rav4! A meth user is in possession of it and he's ripped its stock tape deck out and broken off the passenger side Sun visor, and his puppy ate the parking brake handle. And the 12 volt cigarette lighter port is ...

Re: Bouncing idle?

Bouncing idle was either the ebcv hoses being switched, or the fuel cut solenoid wires being switched. It runs well now, but I still need to adjust the float level, it's just below the notches in the window. Save that for another, less rainy, day

Bouncing idle?

Hi I just finished rebuilding my carb, I followed Robert's video, but I may have switched the 2 white with black stripe wires going to the fuel cut solenoids, and now my idle bounces around until the engine stalls. Any ideas? I tried searching 'bouncing idle' and got no good leads.

Re: Temp gauge reads very low with hot engine

Yes, the wire is connected, and the connection is clean. I'm wondering if the sensor itself is the issue. My coolant is clean and fairly dark green, maybe I need to drain some off and add distilled water to the system.

Temp gauge reads very low with hot engine

After removing my carb to try to rebuild it, I notice my temp gauge reads very low, like barely above cold, but my cooling fan kicks on. What is going on here? I don't want to overheat my engine!

WTB all 4 door window rubber channels

Somehow in the last year these dried up and shrank and broke apart bad enough that I can't roll some windows up and down. Anyone able to part with these?

Re: Beware Bonanza auto wrecker

The window finally arrived but with the metal tabs at the bottom broken off. I'm hoping I can transfer the old bracket from the broken window. No idea how to do this though.
