When I put used 7AFE in my celica, it had a lot of white smoke too in the start. I also thought it was a blown head gasket. The car was sitting for couple years so there might have been a lot of moist...

OK, I must be missing a bolt somewhere then. I had a c-clamp tightened on the left side of it, and I was pulling up with all my herculean strength and it wouldn...

Turn signal/hazards and wipers don't work in my 94 celica that I recently got. I noticed a wire being tapped into the wipers fuse in the interior fuse panel. That actually makes the wipers work. When ...

Transmission Leak :( - 6G Celicas Forums

I doubt the bent dust cover can cause the leak. Its usually a good practive to replace the rubber seal and the snap ring when you put the axle back in. Atleast changing the seal should stop the leak.

My celica made a similar noise. I dropped the oil pan and found spun bearing. For me, replacing the motor myself was the most cost effective way of getting the car back on the road. Paid about $275 fo...

Fixed! Had to take the starter out to tighten up the gound wire. Put manifold from the old engine and she started right up. When I turned the key to on position, one thing I noticed right away was tha...

Found some time to take the intake out. While at it, I found the ground above starter coming from the wiring harness loose. It was hardly touching the block. That could explain the weird electric beha...

I rented the fuel pressure testing kit from autozone but the brass fittting snapped when I was trying to tighten it up, so could not test the fuel pressure. By the way the fuel looks almost orange co...

I have disconnected the battery a few times so I would think it would reset the ECU. Yes this engine was out of a 93 corolla. The only two sensors I know of in the intake is the TPS and IACV sensor. I...

I have checked the timing over and over again. As for the crank timing, when the notch on the crankshaft pully is at 0, the cam pully hole lines up with the bearing mark. I have pointed the distrubuto...
