Sounds about right, Petros--I'll pick some up. I'm one mat short for the back, anyways..

iro, got any pics? My 84's missing a floor mat or two and I was looking to fill 'er out before the rainy boot season rolls into Seattle.

Any gear left for a new owner? I'd take a shirt in M or a sticker if you still got em, just let me know the damage + shipping!

You are worrying too much. Just drive it. Do not be afraid to run the rpms up, these tiny engines do not produce much power at low rpms. The car goes best when you keep the rpms above 2000 on the shifts, and on hard acceleration above 3000 rpms. It will go well past 5000 without harm, (I have reved...

That vacuum diagram looks like it applies to your engine. The two hoses you found disconnected aren't vacuum lines. The rubber one is what brings fresh air to the air filter and the silver coil underneath brings hot air from around the exhaust to help warm up the carburetor. Neither is crucial to p...

So both the manual I found here (1985) and the vac routing diagram seem a little out of sync with my vehicle: 1985 vs. 1984, 3A-C vs. 3A.

Will this roadmap double for the 3A?

welcome to the forum, all good answers here, once you do a good tune up and set the timing to 10 deg BTDC, look for vacuum leaks and misrouted vac lines, you may find your power and throttle response is not too bad, once you get used to it. If it still seems excessively slow on acceleration you mig...

Tom, thanks so much for the quick response! Welcome to the Club! Lots of helpful information here - particularly if you employ the Search feature ... Ha ha, of course. Lots to read about and I'll try to keep the questions to the bare minimum. As I'm starting from dead zero (don't even own a socket w...

Hey all, I'm the beaming new owner of a 1984 4x4 SR5 (166k miles). It just showed up today, and I've taken her for a spin around the burbs, including some hills and highways. It's my first time with a carburated engine and certainly with driving a car this old, so I'm adjusting to the handling, but ...

Hey y'all! As listed, the car comes with a set of the factory original wheels. I'm not going to be able to ship these alongside the vehicle as it makes its way cross-country, and am investigating getting this stuff sent along by a carrier on the ground after the fact. Just to confirm--it's worth hol...

Thanks dlb! Yeah, consider that my newcomer's tax. Will get it fully inspected once I get her back to around Seattle, and do a solid dive of the manual and a refresh of the FAQ you guys've got up here. A decade or so back ago, I built my first PC from scratch, and it didn't go totally as planned. I ...

Hey guys--I'm the purchaser here. I've been lurking these forums for a couple of weeks but found the eBay listing independently. When that bid locked in and I realized I was the new owner of a 4X4 SR5, I decided to head back here to make the rounds. Imagine my surprise to find the very auction being...
