Re: Tercel4wd needs to be rescued! Seattle area
Well good for you Dave88! Another Tercel4wd saved from the crusher! Hope you can make the PNW gathering we are planning in August, it is always fun to meet others on the list and see their ride. Does that Tercel need a new head gasket? Or is is drivable the way it is? If it is not too bad you can dr...

Re: Tercel Names
Ahem, I would have never considered the Tercel, in any condition, a "chick magnet".

Re: Suspension upgrades?
Welcome to the list. There is lots of stuff you can do, but you will also have to do some experimenting. There is no one making a "kit" for these cars, no one "hot rods" a Tercel, but there are lots of stuff from other models of Toyota cars that can be made to work. You might als...

Re: One odd looking Tercel in Fort Collins CO.
Yup, that is the '88-'92 Corolla All-Trac. I used to own one, not even close to a Tercel. A nice car, but a very different vehicle from the Tercel. Could the guy listing it be that much of a dolt? Or did he attempt to borrow a picture from somewhere else perhaps. Go offer him $200 for it.

Just posted '85 SR5, Low miles $450-Seattle
Incredible low miles, and a great price. Act fast. More likely an oil leak than burning oil, even so, nothing a pint of STP would not cure at that price. http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/cto/1795882521.html 1985 Toyota Tercel Wagon 4WD 147k miles New -Belts, Cam Shaft Seal, Valve Cover Gasket, Wate...

Re: Barto's Ultimate Adventure Wagon Build-up (Update may 18)
Might it be a good idea to also set the trans x-menber and driveline center support bearing down an equal amount? I do not think the angle change there would be significant, the front u-joint does not have much angle on it anyway, so it seldom wears out. lowering both the trans and center support w...

Re: Stereo Upgrade
I seem to remember they are the same size as the rears. I have a spare set on the shelf at home, I can double check if you want. Or just remove the front side panel covers and look for yourself, only 3 screws holds it on, as I recall.

Re: Looking for a few small things, front dr wiper arm and
I will look and see if I have that style, I think I do. When I see a good emblem on one in the wrecking yard I grab, lest it end up in the crusher.

Best way he can describe it is a compression release for a diesel. ...Any Idea what this is that Im talking about? Not a clue! did he remove the air filter, not the valve cover? Is he look...

Re: Dashboard warning light malfunction
you did check your brake fluid level didn't you? sometimes the light bleed-over makes it look like more than one light is on at the same time. There is a float in the master cylinder that turns on the brake light when the fluid is low.

Re: Looking to buy a Tercel SR5 soon, some questions...
yup, all '83-'86 Tercels used the same engine, the 3A or 3AC, and all are almost exactly the same. Also, the same year corollas used the almost identical 4AC. Engine parts are plentiful and easy to get.
