Did you make sure if you filled it up to the bolt hole where you fill it up at?

I checked on the PCV valve last night and it is still working just fine.
I am positive the seal is installed correctly and the crank had no wear on it either and the main seal housing was also good. T...

I rebuilt the engine myself not too long ago, and when I installed the main seal, the matting surfaces had no flaws in them. About 2 months ago, I took the motor back out to fix a few problems that a...

I'm pretty sure of the readings, but the oil pressure gauge is about 25-30 years old.
It reads up to 80psi but it might be worn out or just too old.
Would the spring on the pump give more pressure at ...

I finally got an oil pressure gauge and readings were:
Idle (cold): 60psi
Idle (warm): 38 psi
1500rpm: 62psi
2000rpm: 63psi
3000rpm: 65psi
It seems that oil pressure is within the normal range at 3000...

I have good news and bad news. Good news is that the distributor has quit leaking. I ended up sealing up the entire shaft with RTV. I already know I cant adjust the timing any more though. Bad news...

I have replaced the o-ring, and it still leaked. I thought it might be leaking through the cap that holds the distributor in place, so I put some RTV sealant between the surfaces, and it still did no...

I was just wondering if anybody has had any problems with their distributors leaking through the o-ring. I have tried to everything possible to stop it, but nothing works. I have a high volume oil p...

6th Generation Celica › Engine/Transmission/Maintenance
I suggest to buy a MR2 tranny because it will hold up much better than the 5S tranny. Also, MR2 trannies are much cheaper and easier to find than AWD trannies. However, if you can get a hold of the ...

wut can a stock 3s swap hang with??? - 6G Celicas Forums

The reason a 2nd gen celica can beat an srt-4 is because of their all wheel drive. Don't get me wrong, Neons are quick, but their fwd just doesn't cut it on takeoff.

Any 2nd gen could beat a SRT4 But someone needs to have some mods done to beat a STi because those things are wicked fast. Trust me, I have a friend that owns one.

If you want to save some money, your best bet would be to buy a N1 muffler and have the rest of the piping made.

The Magnaflow is quite noisy, but it does have a deep throaty noise to it. If you want a quieter exhaust, your best bet would be to go with the HKS Ti series muffler.

Lucas oil stabilizer is designed to blend with the oil you are using. It isn't thick after you start the car. All it does is give the oil a higher viscosity. Also, the 80/90 gear oil works wonders ...

If you plan on keeping the 5sfe stock, I would not even have a bigger pipe size. Any size that you go up will cause you to lose torque, and if you have those crush bends in the pipe, you will build u...

Unless your looking for a good BOV sound, they are all the same. The stock BOV is better and more reliable, and it will not give your car a crappy idle like some of these aftermarket ones.
