Great thank you! I think I downloaded the wrong codes and didn’t see anything in there.

Great thank you! I think I downloaded the wrong codes and didn’t see anything in there.
Yep, I’m not sure of the trim level, but it has no rear seats and windows all around. Maybe the DLX? It’s 1987 2wd 5sp manual.
Did everything properly, so I thought. Drove the van for a while, turned it off, turned everything off lights and such, turned to "ON" position, shorted the terminal and I got 10 blinks followed by a...
Okay great, thanks
Hi there. Been going through fixing random odds and ends and found myself at the rear wiper motor. The switch on the dash lights up normally when pressed to active the wiper, and when fully pressed,...
Okay guys final last update! Bled and bled and bled the system with no luck. Finally I got tired enough to throw the van to my mechanic to figure it out. He proceeded to do everything in reverse...
The master is new, but not I have not bled it yet. The fork seems to move quite a bit, but I’m sure bleeding it is a good start. It’s starting to rain now and I’ll town it to my mechanic and he will...
Well shoot. Van started up just fine but still won’t go into gear.... is there any adjusting on the clutch i need to do? Or could this not be going into gear really be caused buy low brake/ clutch...
Thank you. The stiffener bolts are only found on the bottom 2 on either side correct? I hope my rear tires are okay hahah I only left the front jacked up and on stands as I only have 2 stands.
Hey it’s all back it in! Before I start it up, can anyone help me with the torque for the bell housing bolts? There are 2 different sized ones, some are 17mm and others are 14mm... 2 of them go...
Sounds great thanks
Never mind I found a whole service manual! For the pilot bearing, it recommends a special tool, but could I just tap it in there?
Hey just a quick question, where would I find the Torque specifications for certain bolts? Thanks
Hey thanks! I’m really trying and just exited to get this beast happy at last! It’s a really great van and every time I get in it nothing really matters and I just love going 35 mph everywhere with...
Alright! Update time, new input shaft oil seal has been installed, a pain to get seated all the way, but I found a flashlight that was the perfect diameter for the inside ring and didn’t touch the...
Got it out! Used bread and grease and a 5 pound hammer. Still took 20 minutes. Anyways that’s exiting, and the rear main will be back in with the new bearing, do I just throw it in there? And grease...
Perfect I’ll research those hoses then, and I totally understand I mean the whole car is take apart I should do anything that’s here really! Other than that I have to wait for the trans mounts and...
Working on it more tomorrow, also I read a different forum about the hose of death? I feel like a noob even asking but what are these hoses and should I replace them? Also for lining up the throw out...
Found it! Called Toyota and they got it. It is in that picture, on the upper right after the input shaft seal. I can’t read the part number... anyways I’ve been trying to get this darn pilot bearing...
Yes just getting the never-seize for the bolts there, and ill search around for that gasket! Might as well remove those brackets for now. I thing the flywheel shroud that covers the bottom of the...
Currently picking up some break clean and anti-seize for the bolts and mating surfaces. What would you recommend for the oil pan and rear main seal sealant? Sucks I have to wait a bit for the last...
Will do, I thought that was the best way but I didn’t know what to use. Just a side note the tranny mounts that should be replaced are just the little rubber parts right? And when I do the main seal,...
This is all so helpful thank you truly. Just nice to have people that have experience around. Anyways I drained the oil, detached the seal plate, and wow it was brittle. I have a video with some...
It was just a mess of oil, nothing smelled or looked like trans fluid. That begin said if it’s just removing the plate and re sealing, I suppose I’ll do it. Is there a seal for that somewhere or...
UPDATE: Yay! 2 jack stands, half a can of bolt blaster, and 2 impact gun batteries later the transmission is out. Just as suspected oil is everywhere, I could even make out the lines of caked oil...
Sweet! Even found a few videos online of how to drop it.
Perfect thank you, and found out the shop right up the street will machine there flywheel for me! As far as taking out the transmission, should I disconnect the shifter cables at that boot on the...
Well it wouldn’t go into gear at all when first turned on. I assume the oil had hardened inside of the transmission, preventing the clutch from making a solid connection with the flywheel. After it...
Okay perfect! How difficult are the mounts? Money is tight but that’s why I’m planning to do it myself, parts aren’t really a concern as long as I find them
Okay! So everything listed and is the transmission mount a defect? I’ve seen a few things about replacing it but never saw the reason. Also if anyone has a link to threads about the rear main seal/...
That’s probably for the best, just replacing suspect parts (that have obviously had too much contact with oil) while I’m in there. I sadly don’t have anybody I know with a lift, but do you think it’s...
Hi there, thank you! The liquid coming out of the tranny is most definitely oil. Very dark and doesn’t have that that tinny gross smell to it. I did eventually get it to drive, I waited a while and...
Hi there, new to the site so here we go. Just after sitting for a week after driving perfectly fine my van decided that it doesn’t want to go into gear. It starts just fine with the clutch in, and...
