Where is everyone these days? We're only getting like two posts a day. Maybe everyones busy doing stuff because it is summer and they don't have time to post? Or maybe just losing interest in the forum? (hope not). We have something good happening here, and it just takes time to build it.

It's too bad that this site doesn't come up when you type 'tercel 4wd forum' into google (or any search engine). We'd probably have way more people finding us. Hopefully this stickers will help. (If anyone ever buys them <_< )

Is it that we're running out of questions/comments or is it that everyone's busy working on their Tercel to make it better? Or maybe perhaps everyone's busy enjoying their Tercel and I'm not? :huh:

I haven't heard from you lately GTSSportCoupe, what happened?

Haha! :rolleyes: ...I've been here daily actually. I was busy rebuilding my 86 for about six weekends in a row. I didn't have the energy during that time to post much on here. If you look in the member profiles section you'll see what I did. I've posted a fair amount recently actually...just look for 'gtssportcoupe' :lol:

:D

Sounds like a bad ground somewhere, or a bad +ve connection from the battery to the starter.

Clean your battery terminals and coat them with a conductive grease before putting them back on. Clean your ground connection from the battery -ve cable to the body of the car. Clean the power (large gauge) connection(s) to the starter. This should fix the problem. If it doesn't, it means that the solenoid might be going on your starter.

I usually check the site every day after checking my email. I don't always post though, sometimes I'm too lazy. I always post if I really think I have something good to say. We really do need to get the board on the search engines. I don't know how to do that but maybe someone here does.

I THINK it depends on the WORDS that are on the front page. With some searches I do...I end up with some pages that are obviously designed to catch a search engine........lists of various words (words meant to have a high hit rate?) on the page with some links, etc.

I belong to another car club that I'm very active in. My time is split between work (yeah i actually do), g/f, other car club and here.

No offence but sometimes, the clubs get bumped. Family is important.

I pretty much hit the site most days, but I can't type real fast so It takes a pretty good commitment to speak up. Plus, I don't have any dough to really start playing with my tercel. I live vicariously through you dudes.

I was taking the tercel on it's first road trip. 2162 miles in 4 days. Did great, had an occasional hiccup every now and then. But I will be discussing that later!
