    measuring valve clearance

    Either a dealer or junkyard. The shims are the same for almost any Camry(86-91), Celica(83-93), Cressida(88-93), Corolla(83-99), MR2(84-91) or 94-99 Tercel. Make a trip out to a u-pull junkyard and if you can find a motor of any of those cars intact, take every shim that looks to be in good...

    kids start smoking smarties

    Wow, lol. I can see the parents freaking out about the kids inhaling. I don't think that is an unreasonable concern. The punishment for plain possession of smarties is just stupid though. Fight the actual problem, not the by which it is carried out.

    What are all of the different OEM MKIII rims?

    The EPC only shows the blades, some steel wheels and the 5spokes all in various colors. (Silver, White and Gunmetal) I'm not aware of any others, but I do recall seeing some odd wheels on a GA70...

    engine noise

    Too little info for anyone to tell you whether it is rod knock or not. Try to pinpoint the noise as best you can. More noise from top of motor, or bottom? Does it get louder with more throttle? Does the noise get faster with higher engine speeds(RPM)?

    Long or short block???

    Very different nomenclatures there. Small vs. big block v8's are more directly named. I'm by no means an expert on muscle cars or old domestic motors, but as I understand big block v8's are larger motors, small block v8's are smaller. (not sure whether it is referring to the outer casting of...

    Is German Castrol really going the way of the dinosaur?

    Just picked up 16 quarts of GC and 3 K&N filters. The current deal is $24.99 for 5 QTS and a K&N. I saved just OVER $70 today and spent about $80. DAMN good deal. :) My top closet shelf now looks like a auto parts store. :)

    Viper alarm self-install, remote start acting funny

    Already checked it, but I'll double check it, just to be absolutely sure. Thanks for the reply! :) **Edit, just ran out and checked it again. The door trigger drops down to 0.8V from 12.3V when the door is opened. If I do the same programming steps with the door closed, it does nothing. With...

    Viper alarm self-install, remote start acting funny

    I JUST LOST ALL REMOTE FUNCTIONALITY!!! WTF?!?! So I was trying to recreate my problem and I remote started it, got in, and let it idle for about a minute. Then I tried to initiate the remote start routine and the remote gave me the out of range response. I shut the car off, and tried to...

    Viper alarm self-install, remote start acting funny

    I will rewire the grounds and possibly the 12V soon. I could also try to clean my chassis grounds. Couldn't hurt. :dunno: As far as the factory alarm, it has been working fine with the factory alarm. It locks and arms and unlocks and disarms every time. I'll keep the bypass in mind if other...
