My bad... I was thinking T4WD. My '83 had the carburetor feedback system and my '88 has it too. FSM says USA Vehicles and Canada 3A-C Engine 4-Speed & Wagon A/T. I found this diagram that might be helpful to the owner of the '82 Corolla Tercel. I see it uses a mixture control valve, which just ...

I got my 1982 Corolla-Tercel SR5 for the price of pulling it out of someone's yard. After throwing a small amount of time and money at it, I have a fun little...
