I'm going to be changing the oil on my rear differential - '86 RWD, Manual - Can anyone recommend a specific brand and number of gear oil that I can buy at one of the big auto parts stores in town? I...
My muffler fell off after it rusted out, for now I've decided to repair and use it.
I used a "flexible exhaust repair kit" size 1 3/4" made by Nickson at O'Reilly Auto Parts, it was $8. It only...
I feel like there's got to be a full bolt on muffler out there similar in size and shape with the same curve to get over the axle. Then you could just make a cut and add or remove length somewhere...

Thanks, but I'm looking for the full muffler with pipe and flange that I can bolt on after the CAT
HI, could you explain what you mean about backing off the star wheel? I'm trying to get the main brake drum "cap" off, so this wouldn't be accessible at this point would it? Thanks
Has anyone seen any new, complete mufflers for sale in 2021?
I've searched all over and called many auto parts stores, no one seems to make them anymore or have any inventory. Walker stopped...
Hi, on the brake drum there is a threaded hole for a bolt to be used in assisting with the removal of the brake drum.
Does anyone know what size bolt this is?
Thanks
I managed to fix this. I was doing it the wrong way.
For the wondering, I did a gravity bleed rather than trying to pump on the clutch.
All I did was loosen the bottom bleed screw, go up top to...
I tried to bleed my clutch cylinder, like I would with brakes. I unscrewed it, turned on the van and pumped on the clutch about 8 times and them wedged something to keep it depressed, then put the...
It was leaking the first time I used the new copper rings.
I ended up fixing the leak by getting some light grit sand paper and a wooden block and sanding both sides of the banjo fitting. Then I...
I put in a new fuel filter and it is leaking from the top and bottom banjo fittings, in between the metal rings. I can't seem to get it on right to stop this. I switched back the the old filter and...
For those using the search function and not tags:
Other posts are saying to use ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) rather than generic power steering fluid.
...
I have a 86 2WD maunal, is there a certain kind of fluid to use in the power steering reservoir?
Should I stay away from the generic "power steering" fluid?
Was there a thread some where on how to protect the alternator from dripping oil and coolant?
I just replaced an alternator that was at least 10+ years old, if not far older that stopped working....
Not sure what this connection is, but I have a small leak and would like to know how to properly fix it. Photo of it attached
Also, is there a good diagram image that lists all the...
How important do you think it is to have Denso over other brands?

Is there a recommended alternator for a standard replacement?
I am looking around an seeing ones like the "Ultima 70 Amp Alternator - Remanufactured (R111410A)" from O’Reilly Auto Parts for around...
On a 2WD drive front rotors, are you able to only remove the brake caliper in order to remove the rotor, or do you need to remove the entire back bracket that looks like it might be blocking the...
If you're at a pull yard and come across a van with everything still on it, what is worth grabbing even if you don't need it?
Were you able to do it by just removing the gauge cluster, or did you end up having to remove the entire dash like in the video?
What all do you have to remove to gain access to the clutch master cylinder? Why would the whole dash come off to access the part that's just below and to the left of the steering wheel?
No, once it's in gear it sits without moving and when I let out clutch it moves forward like it normally would
I am having troubles putting the shift stick into first gear, what would be some common causes of this? My brake fluid level is at the right spot.
I'm guessing it's the master cylinder?
EDIT

Have you tried using a spray bottle to spray water around the engine while it's running to see if there are any exposed wires that are taking in water? Doing this while it's dark, you might see small...
My problems have been after it's been really rainy and windy, rather than from driving in the rain, which makes me think wind is blowing it up into the breather hole.
After I've had these...
I need to replace my ignition coil and am having a hard time accessing the bottom inner screw. It seems to be stripped out. At this point I am thinking about removing the distributor to get access to...
Each winter with high winds and storms I am getting moisture blown into the distributor through these holes. Making the car hard to start and damaging the distributor cap.
Is it common for people...
How is it the slow lane club when I'm going 70 up a hill passing people?
I think that might be more fitting to the VW Club
I think these are called "Beauty Trim Rings". They are from an 86 Toyota Van, in decent shape with no major dents.
They are free and I would rather not ship them. I am located on the Oregon Coast,...
The ring on mine was fine, but it was the contact point that was worn down.
Mine was about as worn down as yours, but rather than replace it, I raised the metal plate to fill in the gap missing...
I was driving and went to put the hazard lights on and they didn't work, and then I noticed my blinkers didn't work either.
After pulling over I checked all the fuses under the glove box and they...
You can't actually order a complete muffler and pipe through that. When you click the "PRODUCT OPTIONS" it only offers a catalytic converter and some fittings
Looks like they don't have a compllete bolt on muffler for 1986 Toyota vans
That site says they're out of stock. I wonder if they still carry it at all?
Doesn't look like any sites are...

Anyone know the best website to buy a new muffler that has the full pipe and flange going to the catalytic converter?

What kind of bolt is used to hold this on...
I have put a new O2 sensor in and I still get the same error code when going at highway speeds. There are no performance issues that I notice, just the check engine light going off and on at times.
...
Yea, you're right. I wanted to keep everything stock and not have stuff wired in, but it would be a lot easier just hard wiring it. I ended up soldering it in.
The wire coming off my van that goes to the connector that plugs into the O2 sensor has come off right at the connector
Here is a picture:

I live on the coast and rust issues are really bad out here. I've noticed that little rock paint chips will start to rust out fast.
What is the best process for treating these chips to prevent...
I had to return the first one I got because the flange didn't sit flat and stuck out, but I don't remember the brand I used. Is there a brand you should stay away from?

I've resolved this issue.
My brake fluid reservoir was low and after filling it up I didn't notice a difference, but after giving it more time to build up pressure it is now working.
You can...
This happened pretty fast, over the course of 2 days of driving. The pedal is getting more and more play and harder to get in gear.
From what I have read, it is most likely the clutch cylinder?...

This was done on a 1986 2WD Van
Over the last few years my horn has intermittently worked, some days I'm able to use it and others not at all. Recently it has stopped working all together.

The small circular cap to the dash pot is missing, exposing the sponge like filter, can I replace this with anything that you're aware of?
