Front end accident... slide into a curb with the brakes locked up? If you cant adjust the tie rods enough to get the alignment straight, something is bent. Probably something along the lines of a bent tension rod or partially crushed mount. Easiest way to check is get the car up on safe jackstands ...

I've had the first issue before. Believe it's just a fuse in the driver's side kick panel fusebox. The third one sounds like a misfire once you're at the tail pipe. Could be as simple as a spark plug gap too far out of spec or a stuck injector. You can disconnect the plug wires one by one and see i...

Hello, I have 3 issues and I was hoping Club4AG could help me. "I was told the car was a swap, and not original engine.." 1) Temperature Gauge, Fuel Gauge, Oil Gauge doesn't not work. (Tachometer and Speedometer works) I noticed that when I turn on the key to "ON" position, the t...

1) Tie rods not aligning so one wheel tilts inwards while other one is straight.. how to fix?


2) Is my whole car bent that's why the bumper is not aligned?

Here is the picture.. Is the whole car bent? Bumper? I am not sure.. please help

Temp & Oil are just one wire signals. Temp comes from the upper waterneck single terminal sensor. Oil comes from the the oil sender by the exhaust manifold. Those two wires go through the main big black connector that sits on the top the firewall near the chassis identification stamp and vin pl...

hello i have two questions here today. 1) my battery tray is missing.. the actual metal part on the car. Is that part welded or how does it work? so confused.. 2) My alignment is off... the shell i got off the guy said one of the tie rods is aftermarket so it's longer but does that even make sense? ...

This is a tricky one :? And because the problem only exists for a second or so when starting, not easy to diagnose. I'm leaning towards a fuel supply problem but it could also be an electrical supply problem. It's almost as if the car first starts on two cylinders and then all four kick in and away...

With the diagnostic port shorted you should get a steady flashing of the engine management light (EML) on the dashboard, it should not be on solid. Jondee will chime in I'm sure but l think this could be a TPS problem where the idle switch is not engaged in the TPS, effectively the ecu looks at the...

Generally - tape the whole car off after stripping all the loose parts, primer, base coat (white), tape the whole car off again for the panda pattern, spray the black, remove secondary tape job, spray clear. Then the usual.wet sanding and buffing. If you're using spray paint you can just go to town...

you can purchase the parts at a dealer. Top & Bottom Insulators - 23291-75010 Upper O-Ring - 90301-17007 Lower O-Ring - 90301-14006 OR look for a set for the 1J injectors at the local parts store. Are you saying the 1J injector o rings are the same for the black top? Ahh those insulators I can ...

Just realised I hadn't replied to this thread, and that I probably gave some bad information :oops: https://i.imgur.com/Ugy1hDV.png On side feed injectors the two O-rings marked in red stop the fuel leaking top and bottom. The insulator marked in green looks to actually be a fat O-ring and it seals...

does anyone know how to do this?
Do you just paint over the fresh white paint..? or how do you prepare it..

Oops.... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fuel-Injector-Nozzle-310cc-23250-16140-For-Toyota-Corolla-Camry-Turbo-Levin-4AGE-/302537622249 I think that pic you posted is incorrect. There is no need for an o-ring on the top as they are side feed injectors. And the ring at the bottom is actually the top seal f...

hello, this car is a swapped 4age and im not sure from what car but the gauges don't work...
The RPM and MPH works just not those 3 gauges
Gas
Temperature
Oil

What could the reasons be?

OK... we need to figure a way to get the fuel pump to run for a couple of seconds before you try and start the engine. If shorting the FP test plug didn't work ( and it should have) there is another way. You need to take the airfilter off your AFM (Air Flow Meter) and while the key is ON, push the ...

https://www.club4ag.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11360 If you can find the "T" shaped plug, use a short piece of wire or even a bare metal paperclip as a "jumper" to short or temporarily connect the two pins on the plug. Turn the key ON while the pins are connected and you should ...

Disconnected it and it still started rough.
I put a paper clip into diagnostic port and it did not flash codes, the light was solid.

It sounds like it is over fuelling but I'm not sure that there is an error code for that when the engine is first started as the O2 sensor is not reporting. Have you checked for stored error codes? Maybe try disconnecting the cold start injector to see if there is a difference? I can check if there...

Cranking speed sounds about normal to me. If you were to turn the engine off straight after it started to run clean and smooth, and then start it again, would it still struggle and shake, or would it start up like normal ? I'm wondering if it is getting enough fuel for the first crank. If you have ...

Any chance you could post a video of the car starting up ? Right from the moment you switch the ignition ON and hit the starter would be great. Just a vid of the tacho with the sound of the engine so we can hear/see what you are hearing and seeing :) Cheers... jondee86 Hello! I have a video. https:...

Check grounds (that means clean grounds, take the ground wire and bend them back and forth to break up any internal corrosion)
Then reattach

which grounds are there that i can check..?

Cold start injector does not affect how fast the engine cranks. But if it is not working it will affect how long the engine has to crank at normal speed before it catches. If you have a timing light you could check the ignition timing while the engine is warmed up and idling. You should have around...

Sorry... got my posts mixed up :? Is the battery getting weak... cranks slow until it catches ? Easy way to check is to jump start your car using another car with a good battery as a booster. If the engine starts easily without struggling then your battery needs load testing to see if it is still u...

Cheers... jondee86

What do you mean blow a white cloud of smoke? like condensation?

I have a GTS 85 AE86, and whenever i start it, the car will crank a few times and struggle to start and will start but while it is cranking and starting the check engine light is flashing. After started, the car runs perfectly fine. What could be the issue? why does it have a hard time starting and ...

Might be cheaper to buy some of these and you will get the o-rings with the injectors. You will need to save the nose insulators from your existing injectors (rubber rings) that seal the tip of the injector to the inlet manifold. Refurbished items from China but don't let that put you off, they wil...

Might be worth checking if there is a business near you that can clean and flow test your injectors. Injectors don't usually crap out all at once, but they can get clogged up with dirt or old fuel if they have sat for a while. And if you are running a stock blacktop with a factory ECU, you don't wa...

Hello, I pulled out the fuel injectors the other day and want to replace them because i don't think they're working... I have two questions. 1) Do all new fuel injectors come with o rings or do i have to buy them separately? where do i buy them if so? 2) What injectors should i get? Would these work...

Doesn't sound like there is much wrong ? Was the engine still warming up when you made those clips ? Does it actually misfire when under load, as in while you are driving, accelerating etc ? Cheers... jondee86 Everybody I have talked to on Facebook Groups said it is misfiring. I mean it feels fine ...
