Toyota Tercel

I just changed the starter on my 1995 Toyota Tercel, changing the starter on your vehicle will likely be the same process. * First, make sure you have enough light (you'll have to go from under the engine and from on top of the engine). Also ensure that the electrical connectors from the new starter will work with the connectors of the old starter (I had to crimp a different connector on mine.) * Disconnect the negative cable from the car battery. * Remove the air filter assembly (one bolt on the front radiator area, one bolt underneath the actual air filter, and one bolt next to the strut and diagnostics box). You'll have to loosen a tension strip on one arm of the air filter assembly as well. * Jack the car up and place 2 jack stands under the vehicle. The starter is on the posterior side of the engine. You'll need to remove the two bolts of the mounting arm that blocks access to the starter. * Disconnect the two cables connecting to the starter (again ensure your battery is disconnected or there could be electrical arcing). You'll have to remove the hood cover off of one wire, and the other wire you'll have to push firmly on to remove. * The mounting bolts of the starter are difficult to get at. Be sure you have several different extensions handy for your ratcheting handle. Having a good socket set handy will make the job alot easier. You'll have to access the starter mounting bolts from on top of the engine (hence why you have to remove the air filter assembly). * When installing the new starter, you'll want a second set of hands nearby, as puting the starter mounting bolts in from on top of the engine while holding the starter in place to thread the bolts from underneath the engine will be difficult by yourself. Install the rest of the bolts you took out opposite of removal and you should be good to go. Check that the starter is working after you install it by reconnecting the battery and giving the car a go. Cheers.

disconnect negative battery tml.,remove the plug from the alternator,remove the main battery wire from the stud on the alternator, remove the lock bolt, swing alternator down to remove belt, remove pivot bolt, swing alt. until its out. replacement is reverse of remova;

To take out the alternator on a 88' tercel, you have to do it from under the car

Floor Automatic

it should be. if you have them both side by side and they look alike it should bolt right in with no problem. you wont blow anything up by installing it even if its wrong so dont worry about it. give it a shot!

There is a plug toward the frt on the tranny, best way to get at it is from under the car. Also there is a drain plug on the bottom of the tranny. fill the tranny with 80w-90 rear end fluid up to the fill plug, if too much is put in, let it drain out of the fill hole until it stops, car will have to level. Can't seem to remember how much though??.....

In order to bleed the clutch you must have two people with you. One person to let the valve loose and one to pump the clutch to full erection. Look in your owners manual to find the bleeding valve. Check the fluid level every 4 bleeds make sure air doesnt get back into the system. Have someone pump up the petal until stiff and tell them to hold it to the floor. then while they have it to the floor you will then release the valve to let air out. Close valve and repeat process over until all air has exited the system. In order to bleed the clutch you must have two people with you.

If your car makes a loud "click" sound when you turn over the motor (but it doesn't fire) it is likely your solenoid. If you do it repeatedly and starts that is what it is. If it isn't starting, you can shift to neutral, push the car or rock it just a wee bit, then go back in park, the solenoid gets jarred enough to work. If it is turning over but not starting, then you may have some debris in your fuel line filter. You could try a fuel (STP etc.)cleaner in your next tank of gas, it may help. It sounds like you need to clean out the carbon-build up in your fuel injection system.This is different from the stuff you put in your gas take to clean out your fule injector nozzles.Buy some stp air/throttle body air intake cleaner(you can get it at auto zone) for a couple of bucks.Take off the air cleaner next to the fuel injection throttle body.open the throttle plate switch and spray with the car turned off onto the plate and in the chamber to clean out the carbon build-up.The carbon is what affects idling and stalling because of the buildup inside that affects the air/fuel mixture,you may also need to take off and clean your air intake valve.good luck

Best way to get the keys out call CAA (AAA in the states) or a taxi company they know how to open car doors, of course by providing registration info.

four, as it is a four cylinder engine with one spark plug per cylinder.

On my 1992 Tercel the gap is .044 inches.

When you buy plugs, the manual (at least the Champion manual) should also have gap specs for the car.

Shogun

that means oil is passing through one of the rings or pistons. not worth paying to get repaired find a good shop and just get a jdm motor put in rebuild would cost around 3500$ swap about 1800$... your choice

very simple, there is a tension pulley on top of the AC/Compressor loosen the center bolt on the pulley and the adjusting bolt on top of the tension pulley and simply push the pulley down until the belt comes loose.

The same thing happened to my 1995 Tercel. I guessed that it was the Alternator. To test if it was, I disconnected the battery while the car was on, and it instantly turned off, which confirms that indeed the alternator is dead. My mechanic also confirmed it. I bought a new one for $95, and once the mechanic changed it, the lights turned off. The same thing happened to my 1995 Tercel. I guessed that it was the Alternator.

four (4) litres My owners manual says 3 quarts.

where do you find the filling plug for the gear oil on a 1993 Toyota tercel

if an automatic transmission is grinding in reverse it is probably an internal failure.

The car will probably need a good mechanic who specializes in transmissions to look at it to be sure. I have seen some cars with a simple linkage problem do this...but its unlikely.

on the back of the engine under the intake manifold.
