1985 4WD, 5-Speed Sta. Wagon w MANY New parts. Running w 199,000 miles. But Manual tranny must have leaked gear-oil, so now it makes a clicking sound tho' full of fluid. See the Adv. on SFe NM Craigs List. BAT or local PU in TAOS, NM. $1800. input shaft has teeth missing. trans is essentially junk....

Oh nice! It is a blue top, just unsure of the exact year. I’ve just been calling it a 1983 when looking for parts, and hoping for the best. I’m currently searching for a water pump, however I’m not having any luck with my local parts suppliers. Any online recommendations? is your water pump pulley ...

I am looking for someone to take all for free (need a pickup or van) Otherwise, a running stock carb is $200, after a driving demonstration, I will remove it on the spot to sell. it will idle smoothly and go into full secondary power. Collection of 12 TVSV's and a gas valve all for $50, none are te...

What is the "slight hiccup" at idle, can you be more specific? I definitely agree with SirFoxx re: tempering expectations of an old carb'd engine. So if by hiccup you mean sometimes it idles at 600 instead of 800 rpm, I'd say that's just fine. But if you mean it sometimes runs rough or al...

I'm cleaning out all my Tercel stuff, bring a pickup and take it all away!! FREE Portland Oregon. I'm ready to haul it all to dump. Transmission, 4.1 transaxle and rear differential. source: pulled from a blown engine 85 tercel Left front fender spotless no rust. Hatchback lid spotless Large collec...

Hello, So I’ve spent the past few months fixing up this 84 T4WD I purchased in the end of March. Cleaned and went through replacing a bunch of clogged and old carb parts, replaced the vacuum advance on the dizzy, went through the vacuum line’s replacing all of them while also checking routing and t...

i remember when this was for sale originally. didnt used to have the stripes.

4age swaps are rare -- theres only a very few of us that have done it, myself included. The motor in yours should be a basic big port blue top 4age.

what parts are you looking for?

I needed a Secondary Diaphram for my Aisan carb. I had a lot of trouble finding it, so wanted to share where I finally found it. First, there seems to be at least 2 different diaphrams. In Roberts excellent carburetor rebuild video, the rod on his Secondary Diaphram is straight. I believe that one ...

Since you’re working on cosmetics, I assume you’re taking it to CO for the Meet & Greet? as much as i would like to, probably not. even if i did bring it, i wouldnt be able to drive it anywhere, and the car still hasnt been tuned or proven yet. i dont want it to blow up while im out there. im n...

Man, still waiting on the flywheel. Not only is the shop still swamped, they just let go a few employees soooooo yea....not sure when ill be getting it. I did hear some of the work is done, but still needs the bolt pattern drilled and the ring gear land machined. While being bored, I thought about m...

still waiting on the flywheel. in the meantime, while the car has been sitting, not only did the clutch cable seize from getting too hot the last time i ran it, but also a brake line blew out. yay. Replaced the cable with an ATP Y-488. its from an isuzu pickup / p'up. I had to cut the one bracket of...

Thanks, folks. Makes total sense. I think I'm going to pick up a different 83 that's a smoking deal but in rougher shape aesthetically and needs a rebuilt motor. If I can get a reasonable price on the one listed above I'd consider just swapping the good trans into that one. I appreciate the guidanc...

Hi Mattel, There was a post about the 3A saying that the exhaust valves tend to wear out, so when it arrives, I will see what the compression is like and change them out if they are worn. Any thoughts on the head-gasket or giving it a different cam if I have it apart? Everything I have read agrees ...

such a cute little car.

if your tercel is points ignition, you should convert to the solid state ignition imo

Wow! Again interesting mod work. This info may come handy to all who want to use 4A-FE as a start point for their engine builds. Is 200mm flywheel possible to use also with Tercel 4wd? Or is it only suitable for your 1st gen Tercel gearbox? if anyone wants to do a 4afe swap, just use the tercel fly...
