There's a guy on ebay that sells a "kit" with the glass and all the seals for a windshield replacement. I don't remember what I paid, but I think it was less than $150. It was a little bit fiddly get

Team Fannypackers (in the British sense!) has just completed a clutch replacement on the '91 Tercel we're running. Yeah, it's not an LBC, but it leaks like one! This was a curious clutch failure, as

Hey guys, Is there any reason I couldn't swap my '79 column switches and ignition switch onto a column from a '72 Midget? I know the steering wheels are different - does the turn signal cancel work t

Thanks for the insight. I'm not worried about the wiring issues at all, since what's on the car now is all out of a '79 - column, switches, steering wheel, wiring harness, etc. But the column is ben

Could the low oil pressure be a result of the overheating? What's the pressure when cold? Are you sure you're full of coolant? The only thing I can think of is that there's air in there somewhere. H

My HS4 carbs hjave a "liftting pin" on the float bowl sidce of each carb for just this purpose. The advantage of this is you can double check the mixture with the air cleaners on. -=Chris Chris King

I'll have to check, but I think that's all they move is 1/8". It's been a while since I've had the carbs out of the car. At any rate, I've been pusing them up until they stop. Seems to work for me. :
