    need some connectors for my 91 celica

    as an afterthought, i suppose i could solder wires to the switch(can you do that on a thermistor without damaging it?)and then put a two place gm weatherpack on it and the harness. id rather not, but that may be the solution!

    need some connectors for my 91 celica

    not possible as id have to find a different switch for the cold start timer. plus that would double the cost of this winter beater, as of now i have about 600$ in the whole car. the fuseblock is like any typical toyota, specially shaped female connectors built right into the box, so id have to...

    need some connectors for my 91 celica

    my winter car is acting up, the coldstart injector switch harness connector has crumbled on me. causing the wiring to fall off constantly, realistically my whole engine harness could use a replacement. when i swapped this current engine in i had numerous connectors break lock tabs off due to...

    Frozen gas lines?

    first of all gasoline and water will never mix.... no matter how much ethanol is in it second gas lines will freeze up because of the first point..... water is heavier than fuel therefore it will collect in the lowest point in the fuel line as water, not a mix of fuel and water(remember it is...

    Only one speed heater.. still

    could have a loose ground on the fan motor, this would cause the resistor to eventually burn up and could also cause the fan to run slow. id start there.

    Got hit tonight, :) Fixed with pics on Post 91

    that qtr does not need to be replaced, it is saveable. no welder would be needed, a porta power and a dent puller , and a few select hammers. it would need a little filler to smooth it, but that is common. nashville auto diesel college would probably even accept such a project to teach with, id...

    that qtr is very saveable, bdywork is easy. i get down that way on occasion as my parents live in hopkinsville. if you get it driveable i would be willing to help work it out at easter when i come down.

    Unintended consequences

    amazing, we have had those lights here for about 6 year, with a extra 5 mil layer of poly over them we never have that problem!, the air space inside the extra layer acts as a insulating barrier and keeps what little heat the leds generate. that heat is enough that even at -25(like we have right...

    is an alternator = alternator for toyota cars?

    short answer, yes. long answer not always. find a part # on it. toyota alternators are not cheap. never have been, never will be. i know that a 1.6 and a 2.2 will interchange, im pretty sure that a 7m will also interchange with the 2.2(looks the same, havent tried it.) . post a pict of it, i...
