    Re: 5 SPD SHIFTER BOX REBUILD

    The done thing here is to post to already-existing threads. Most of the topics we'd need to post about already have a thread, and they're all very well tagged. So, if you go to the Advanced Search...

    Re: 5 SPD SHIFTER BOX REBUILD

    You know, I have no idea whatsoever. However, as a fellow aspiring Toyota Van EV conversion-haver, I'm going to take a shot at answering your question. I've spent a fair bit of time at...

    Re: Seat Belt questions

    Thanks! That's really useful. Using the factory lower mount might be impossible, so maybe I will wind up doing my own floor mount. But I was surprised to read this:

    Re: Seat Belt questions

    I am going to attempt installing a shoulder belt in the second row of my '87 Van. The car thieves dumped our really nice five-point car seat somewhere, which is a shame but the kid was aging out of...

    Re: Replacing your van's thermostat

    What are the symptoms of an improperly seated thermostat? Or perhaps of a thermostat where one over-tightens the bolts and squishes the gasket? It overheats faster, now that I have replaced the PO's...

    Re: Replacing your van's thermostat

    Thanks, Tim! I managed to get the thermostat housing off without any PS disassembly. There was just enough room in the elbow of the power steering line to get the bolts off, one. click. of. the....

    Re: Replacing your van's thermostat

    Are most of the pics in the thermostat replacement guide of the 4WD? I suspect that this is a picture of the 2WD, because I'm working on a 2WD and I think I have to remove the part circled in red...
  9. Re: The Fan Clutch (clutch fan / fluid coupling) Thread

    Can anyone who has driven both a TV and a Previa confirm for me that the fan on the TV should sound, at startup, like that of a Previa? B/c I have never heard that fan roar from my new-to-me TV. I...

    Re: Re-tension seatbelt retractor?

    I watched a simple seatbelt-rejuve technique documented in a YouTube video made by someone with a Tarago or Estima. (So probably AUS or NZ.) It's pretty easy; I don't know if it will work for your...

    Re: What happend to the Forum format?

    I'm not sure why vBulletin sometimes serves the mobile site to desktop users, but it's happened to me before, here and elsewhere. I suspect that is what is happening to outlawmws.

    Re: The fusible link thread

    You know, your response was rather deeper than the one I expected. You are right on the money, though. If I consider your post in the light of the further troubleshooting I've done of the van's...

    Re: The fusible link thread

    Would you believe that this FL 0.5G fusible link passes a continuity test?

    It does!

    Parasitic battery drain questions

    I am suddenly the proud owner of a 1987 TV 2wd. I couldn't be happier, except for the length of my to-do list. It has a parasitic drain on the battery, and when I find my multimeter I am going to...

    Previa engine seized, ran out of oil

    Howdy folks,

    I assume that the engine is toast - but while I have all kinds of mechanical aptitude, I know next to nothing about internal combustion engines. So I hope you-all don't mind if I ask...
