I got a OEM t-stat for my tercel and i noticed fatser warm ups and more consistant normal operating temp (it used to go up 3/4 the way to red, now it will only go slightly past the middle) the only reason it goes past middle at all is because my temp switch that tells the fan when to come on is old ...

anyone ever attempted or successfully completed an SR-5 cluster swap?

can you remove the springs if you got the air shocks? i know some air systems work without springs.

road trip!

i was filling it up by the side, after 4l nothing was pouring out, so i added 1 more litre, and still it didn't pour out, only at about 6 did it start coming out the side.

weird.

What do the Toyota filters run?

$6 CDN costs less than the "performance" ones i see at Canadian tire and works alot better.

for $10 you cant go wrong! i doubt its anything very difficult to fix, probably something as simple as a bad fuel pump.

and the oil leaking from the pan that occured right after an oil change is 99% likeley that it has the wrong drain plug washer.

how about those little subarus, i think they are the Justy's, about the size of a 80's tercel hatchback, 4WD, and i think they came in turbo too.

my tercel took almost 6 damn litres thats odd that others only took 4L i drained it out the center drain plug.

anyone used them? I remember when i put one in my tercel the oil stayed cleaner longer (the oil on the dip stick would no longer turn jet black instantly after oil change) and the oil pressure sensor started leaking because of the increased oil pressure. ever since then i have been sold on them, and...

thanks for the compliments, having the cluster in the middle took some getting used to, but I think nothing of it now. its milage is basically 50MPG and its a 10 gal tank. you gotta drive like grandma or only do highway driving to get that kind of milage, it REALLY burns up the gas if you drive it h...

Welcome! Hot Echo you got there - I love the rims. I'm toying with the idea of buying one as a daily driver for my wife and I. Can't beat the cost, and they get great mileage. Not only that, but the power to weight ratio is excellent. How do you like yours? What all have you done to it? You must be...

i got the origional 1983 owners manual from my tercel (my parents bought the thing new) i could scan some stuff if your interested, but i'm not going to scan the whole thing. its got a pretty heafty maintenance section with lots of specs. it actually has about 5 or 6 spark plug heat ranges, where mo...

hey everyone, this is my first post so i thought i should say hi to everyone. i'm a big toyota fan and it all started with my 1983 4wd wagon my mom gave to me when she got a new matrix in 2003. right now i drive a 2005 echo hatchback, but i still got the tercel and plan on using it sometime, i don't...
