I have a trashed, but with good driveline 84 that this would be perfect to merge with...however im in PA...mine also has the brown plaid interior which is all for sale for very cheap...im keeping my driveline parts tho as well...except for engines...i have 3 spare engines total laying around here..

My 84 SR5 parts car needs to have something done with it...my mother keeps bitching about it...and everything else...it was given to me several years ago by somebody else on these forums. It was already in a wrecked/junk state when i got it then i brought it back to life enough to use it as a get-dr...

You basically have to totally flush and clean the entire system out and replace the oil for it to work properly converting from 12 to 134a...the 2 refrigerants themselves do not mix together, and they both use different oils. but propane does mix with r12 and r12 mineral oil. 134a is also less effic...

This is next on my wish list...a 1987 Colt Vista...1987 because it was the first year for EFI and the last year for square headlights. With A/C & preferably Power windows...and no rust. Engine problems would be OK & don't scare me. I really like the Vista for the same reasons i like the Terc...

NADA sucks, i say... National Auto DEALERS Association...the red flag is in the name...of course they are going to rate the price as absurdly high as they can... KBB is more realistic. That and everybody trying to sell one thinks they have a cash cow now after Breaking Bad...

My trim lasted about 6months after i did my restoration on the automatic...then one day with high winds the whole top part blew off on the highway...i went and retrieved all of it but iv been trimless for more than a year now...i had just attempted to reuse the original plastic clips...what sort of ...

I owned my Tercel before i ever became aware of Breaking Bad...however the only reason i started watching it was because of Jessies Tercel...i now consider it one of my favorite shows.

Yes, R134a is the standard here in the US now. However it is not totally ozone depleting...it still does just less than R12 did. I hear talks about the industry moving to carbon dioxide as a refrigerant...however that works at extremely high pressures and is less mechanically efficient than 134a...w...

I have a few cans of the real stuff stashed as well that i managed to score for free...but im saving that for if i find a fridge or a window A/C that i want to keep going...otherwise im sold on propane...legal & flammability issues aside, its a great functional replacement, mixes with existing R...

That probably is the best plan. It is pricy but looking on Ebay, R12 mineral oil isnt that much more expensive than synthetic gear oil...and id use so little of it in these projects that its probably worth just using the proper stuff...that and the R290 is already a wildcard to deal with. Still cant...

about a year ago my AC compressor seemingly locked up whilst using the defroster last winter...smoke came out from under hood from the AC clutch (i think), took the belt off on the side of the road and haven't messed with it til now. Performed an autopsy of the compressor today and found several int...

Tore it down the rest of the way today...going to just do everything properly since id rather not have to FK with it again for a while...including new water pump & stuff...the T belt idler sounds rough/dry...im finding everything i need on rockauto so far...but where do i find the O rings for th...

No, the one i bought was a 4x4 6 speed exactly like US ones. just set up for right hand drive...which can be easily changed to left hand/US.

I bought my spare JDM tranny from Soshin in CA a few years ago...same place i got the 1N-T diesel also. i think i paid like $400 including shipping.. same deal, should only have around 50k on it. I didnt even need it but i have it as a spare. The shifter points towards the passenger side, but im sur...

I have a couple small leaks in the the automatic T4 and my AC compressor locked up about a year ago...as far as the leaks, it leaks oil and antifreeze a little bit...i believe the oil is coming from both the camshaft seal and the main front crank seal...its not terrible...i just check it and add a l...
