Hey Guys,
I have super low power in my van. I'm thinking I need to check compression. Before I buy a gauge I want to see if I can even fix it if I do detect low compression. I'm guessing that new...
Tim, You just made my day!
Thanks. I don't need the actual sensor, just the plug on the end of the wire that plugs into the sensor. Anyone know that part number I can't find it anywhere
What is the sensor on the right side of the coolant cap? Mine broke and I can't find a part number or name to order a replacement part
Hey Guys, I've got a broken electrical connector on the front side of my coolant cap. I can;t figure out what it's for. It has a single wire.
The van is a 1984 LE28472848

Thank You Tim! Looks like my weekend is booked
My 1984 automatic 2wd started acting funny in the last few weeks. When I first start it up and it is cold it won't go into gear (forward or reverse) until it is revved up high enough. Basically you...
Recently my Steering wheel started making a noise when I turn. It sounds like Chewbacca is inmy steering wheel.

Any Ideas?
It's an '84 Standard...
My 1984 van is getting pretty squeaky, especially once she warms up. This gets annoying on long car trips. Could this be my shocks? Springs? Struts? The van seems to pass the "bounce test" ( when you...
Yep, dimmer works great
Thanks! I figured, but just wanted to double check.
Just ordered this: http://www.stockwiseauto.com/product_info.php/products_id/1978743/Make/Toyota/Model/Van/Year/1984

Do you mean the gasket under the cylinder head cover?

To instal new dashboard lightbulbs, first you need to buy the bulbs. I bought these ones from ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/400428841903
They are the exact same size as the original:

When I pulled out my bulbs, they said 158 on them. I ended up ordering these:

Ok you've sold me on the LEDs. They are super cheap, draw less power, and are brighter. I'f I'm understanding this right, I can buy T10-5 #168 and replace the current bulbs with no problem. Does the...
Replaced the master cylinder:

I have two oil leaks. One is from the oil pan and that should be a relatively easy fix ( knock on wood). The second one though is a bit of a mystery. It's bigger and seems to be coming from somewhere...
Let me start by saying that I'm no expert and learned how to do this by reading through this website and a few others. I didn't follow the directions in the shop manual either but still managed to...
Hey Guys,
I took apart my dash to replace the master brake cylinder. While in there I noticed a few of my dashboard lightbulbs were out. Anyone know where to get them? I did a quick google search...
Got the dash off and it seems like the master cylinder is leaking where it connects to the booster. I'm assuming that there isn't a gasket in there, so my question is; Will replacing the master...
I know it's bad for the environment and all, but does it increase performance to have a hollowed out cat? Does it harm your engine? I just put a new muffler on and when I took the cat off all of the...
So, I took it back and complained today. They out it back on the machine and did a new alignment. It was "toe in" still and they had forgot to adjust the "caster". When they finished up it was still...
I took my van in for an alignment at Midas today. They did the alignment but said my "idler arm and gear box are loose." Are these things I can fix myself? Do I need ones or do they just need to be...
When we bought our 1984 there was a hole in the door panel where a button was missing. I had no idea what it was. The manual and our copy of Chilton's was no help. I reached in and pressed the...
Thanks guys! That makes me feel better about this. I was looking up all kinds of stuff online and thought maybe I was going to have to take the fuel system apart. Glad to know it's nothing to worry...
I also want to do brake pads so it seems like i should just do both at the same time to save the hassle of taking the whole dash apart twice right? However I want to have the parts ready to go (and...
Thanks for all the advice and quick responses! I pulled a couple relays cleaned the contacts and put them back in. That did the trick and I now have instrument panel lights!!
Love the idea of the...
Hello All,
I've got a 1984 Van that seems to be leaking break fluid. it drips down the steering column and gets the floor mats wet. There is also a wet squishing noise when I release the brake...
There is quite a bit of suction when removing the gas cap to fill up the tank. Is this normal? I removed the gas cap while driving to see if it affected the performance but there was no noticeable...
Hello All,
i'm hoping to get some help. My instrument panel lights and my automatic shifter indicator lights stopped working all of the sudden. I checked the fuses and I had a blown 15 amp fuse. I...
