    Oil Advice from the autozone employee

    I don't have a problem with multi language products/signs, as I said its very common here. I do have a problem with spanish only packaging. Its also I think directly the fault of the auto zone store, as they choose to Only stock spanish label products and not the multi lingual stuff like every...

    Oil Advice from the autozone employee

    I never go to auto zone any more, I went in a while back for something and all the labels were in spanish. Its not uncommon to see the majority of products with english and spanish on the packaging. However, the stuff was spanish only no english what so ever. I thought maybe it was that one...

    suspension install too expensive?

    Definitely have a breaker bar on hand, that was the only problem I ran into that I remember. Had to make a run to sears for one, which has since seen a lot of use.

    Split decision..... Turbo or N/A

    How is the car in bad shape? I have a similar situation I guess, 87 na at with sport package. I'm going turbo at some point eventually lol. I am however building the rest of the car back up first. No sense in dumping a nice motor into an old worn out car. I'm doing an r154 swap soon, actually...

    Coolant system flush

    I don't think the location of it matters as much as the parts used. I plan to put mine over next to the charcoal canister just because thats where I have room(no ABS).

    TRD shift knob on ebay(trust worthy?)

    I am looking for a shift knob and saw this guy on ebay selling them for pretty cheap. I normally hate ebay and have sworn off using them for the past 6 years or so but I'm tempted. He has 100% positive feedback. Are there known to be fake trd knobs or knock offs?

    coolant over pressurized?

    I had the same thing when I had BHG, it was like exhaust gas was getting into the cooling system. The coolant looked fine, oil looked fine and didn't over heat. I would try a new radiator cap as its cheap and who knows how old it is now. Then later look at switching out the green coolant with...

    Don't buy cheap brake pads!!!

    My porterfield pads are quiet, no sound at all. I used OEM shims and some of the brake quiet grease on the backs.

    removal of 90 degree coolant hose clamp

    I thought they sell a tool just for those clamps, I swear I saw a post by Jetjock that showed it. Its like a cable with a claw looking thing on the end that grabs the 2 sides of the clamp and pulls them together. I could just be making stuff up though...

    should i cut my springs???

    The local checkers parts store looked at me like I was crazy when I handed them back a set because it didn't have the pins. They acted like they are just fine without them...

    should i cut my springs???

    So many replies later and it still seems like no one read this post or the OP about removing the springs. He didn't ask anything about cutting to Lower the car. He asked if he could cut the springs to get them off the car easier. No, you shouldn't cut the springs to remove them. Go rent a...

    :Urgent: The mystery starting problem that I thought I fixed.

    If you get a new starter, ask for one for a 91 supra. It has the threaded body so you don't need bolts + nuts. Its also a little smaller(shorter). That is of course if you don't have that already, based on your sig I'm guessing your 87...

    Starter not turning over, lights dim when key turns

    Every time I've had a bad battery the starter cranks, just not strong enough to start the car. Never had a battery that doesn't have enough juice to turn the starter at all. Then, suddenly the next try it does start like he says. I would certainly pull the battery and have it tested as its...

    Starter not turning over, lights dim when key turns

    Do you hear a single click from behind the dash on the passenger side when you turn the key? If you turn and hold the key for a minute will it suddenly crank strong? If you turn the key off and on over and over will it crank strong? Jump starting doesn't make a difference? I had those problems...

    brake MC problem

    Did you bench bleed the MC or just fill the reservoir? From the way you said you filled it with fluid to make bleeding easier I think you just put it in the car full. You gotta bench bleed.

    oil in plug valley

    I wouldn't replace the valve cover screws with anything other than OEM screws / washers. You don't need to torque them down, thats why they used screws to prevent them from being over tightened. Also I thought the rubber washers are because the head and covers expand differently and the rubber...

    Stater Relay questions (help)

    I thought the idea behind it is the old wiring has such high resistance that it can't properly trigger the starter. You add the relay which only needs a tiny bit of juice to be triggered. The relay ties directly to the motor to provide the starter the actual juice it needs to be fired. Its not a...
