Re: Misfire,worse under load...TURTCEL
Was that your problem all along? Embarrassing to say, but yes. it was from nothing that I did myself. Ironically the hose was a little on the short side so it was stretched to the limit and a little bit hardened. It made it not stay on the HAC port and it must has vibrated free while driving, since...

Re: Misfire,worse under load...TURTCEL

Re: 86 SR5 Bellingham, $2600 obo
No B.S., when driving through Oregon on their interstate highways that are limited to 55 mph I was getting 39.9 mpg while traveling long stretches across the state between fill ups. I was only getting about 26 mpg in town though. I check my mileage every time I fill up. I never was able to get 40 mp...

Re: 86 SR5 Bellingham, $2600 obo
If a car got 55 mpg why would anyone want to sell it? Underlying problems?

Re: Misfire,worse under load...TURTCEL
I did the accelerator pump test and it shoots a nice stream of fuel with no concerns of it not doing that correctly. Guess it is ok. One thing that comes to mind is that my carb does not have the little check valve on it that is inline in the vacuum hose on the back of the carb (side that faces the ...

Re: Misfire,worse under load...TURTCEL
accelerator pump That has crossed my mind. I have noticed that the boot on the accelerator pump is wet sometimes after running, but I thought it may just have been residual carb cleaner that had not yet evaporated. How can I determine if it is actually bad? A bad accelerator pump would cause sympto...

Re: Misfire,worse under load...TURTCEL
The car has been my daily driver since I got it about a year and a half ago. I disabled the components about 4 months ago on the EBCV and about 10 months on the vacuum switch A. Mileage went from 28 mpg to 20 mpg....ouch.

Re: Misfire,worse under load...TURTCEL
Fuel filter is brand new. Yes, the hesitation still continued after the dizzy swap.
Timing is fine too, no concern with the timing belt skipping a tooth on the gears or anything like that.

Re: My tercel has an issue and I don't know what to do
It is normal for the wheel to spin while in neutral when there is no pressure to stop it. You should be able to just stop it with your hand. My experience when I swapped my clutch out on my Terc.
