View 1 RepliesToyota - Celica :: 1987 - Suddenly Revved Into Higher RPMs While Slowing Down
I was driving home from campus yesterday, and as I approached about 50mph, the Celica suddenly revved into higher RPMs, all the while slowing down. I pushed the gas pedal, which only worsened the problem. I was able to limp the car home. About an hour later, I tested the car again, and the problem remains: Accelerate to about 35-50, then get high RPMs while the car slows down and jumps forward.
I suspect a transmission problem, accentuated by a loose wheel bearing that I haven't been able to afford to get fixed yet. My Celica is an automatic, with about 213000 miles on it.
Celica :: 1987 Toyota 1600 GT - When Engine Completely Warm Up Idle Is About 1000 RPM
I got a 87 Toyota Celica 1600 GT, with a TVIS 4A-GE engine in.
My problem: when i just start the engine cold, it revs to 2500 RPM, and stays there for 1-2 minuttes and then falling to about 1500 RPM, and when the engine is completely warm my idle is about 1000 RPM.
first i think that 2500 RPM cold is a bit to much, and i dont know what to do with it. but my biggest problem is when the engine is fully warmed up, and i rev it to lets say 3000 RPM and then lets the gas of, the engine falls to about 500 RPM sometimes it stalls but if it not stalls then it would slowly gain some RPM and then it goes up to 1000 RPM again.
How can i prevent the engine falling that much when i let the gas off? it's quite annoying when i drive the car and comes to a stop it sometimes stall.
Camry :: 1987 Toyota Not Starting When Turn Ignition / Sometimes Hear Grind
Just bought for around town. Problem with starting. Turn ignition and sometimes hear grind. Second try in neutral and she starts right up. I don't know if it's problem with key ignition/coil, or the starter.
Also need to convert a/c, fan ok but no cooling. Is this major cost to convert?
Celica :: 1983 Toyota GT With Automatic Transmission - Cannot Get Car To Turn Over Only Clicks
83' Toyota Celica GT with an automatic transmission. The problem that we are having is that we can't get it to turn over. All it wants to do is click at us. As far as we both can tell all cables and wiring harnesses are plugged in and there aren't any loose wires. We've had the alternator and starter checked and they both passed. Also there is a new battery with new terminals installed so that's not going to be the problem. In all of the reading that I've done I keep hearing about a neutral start switch. What is it? And where is it located? I believe I've found a spot where it should be but there isn't anything there. And we've put all of the parts in the car back where they go.

I have a 1990 toyota celica. The parking attendant somehow locked the steering wheel and the key will no longer turn in the lock. I tried everything i could think of: turning the wheel whilst turning the key, putting car in all positions other than park and then turning the wheel and key, changing the key, etc....The steering wheel remains locked and will not unlock.

I'm trying to turn the crankshaft by hand to verify my timing belt alignment, but meeting some resistance. is this because I have the spark plugs in? do i have to take them out to turn the crank? also, that little groove in the belt guide doesn't seem to line up with anything or get held by the rib on the crankshaft. does that matter, or have i got it installed wrong?
View 1 RepliesToyota - Celica :: 1996 Engine Would Turn Over And Not Fire / Bogging
I have a 1996 Toyota Celica automatic transmission with just under 160k miles. It's always been a great car, very reliable and very few problems. A few days ago, it started having trouble starting (engine would turn over and not fire, usually starts after four or so tries) and then will bog down considerably while taking off from a stop until it shifts into second gear. No problem idling, not stalling.
Mechanic changed fuel filter, checked fuel pressure, plugs, cam and ignition timing, catalytic converter - all okay. Thinks it might be the distributor but would take a few hundred dollars worth of work to diagnose, plus whatever expense if it is the distributor, and obviously more if it is not. Might it be the distributor?

View 2 RepliesCelica :: 1987 GT Won't Idle At Lower RPMs
I have a 1987 Convertible Celica GT, with Manual Transmission. The car will not idle at lower RPM. I had someone look at it, and they have it where it will idle at 2000 RPM, but anything lower than that, and the engine will die when not giving it gas.
The engine accelerates great and runs great at any speed, but if you push in the clutch without giving it gas, it will die, unless the idle speed is cranked up like it is now. What this might be?
Celica :: 1987 ST Auto Transmission - No Power To Radiator Fan
1987 Celica ST

auto trans
Last week the rad cooling fan stopped working. The fan itself is fine. It spins when connected directly to the batt. Relay tested good, and fuse isn't blown. I unplugged the temp. switch connector, and grounded it to the batt. to test the circuit, and nothing. Switched on the A/C, and both fans spin. So, where else should I look for the problem?
Celica :: 1987 GT Taking 10 Seconds Of Cranking To Start
I have an '87 Celica and it takes a good 10 seconds of cranking to start. After being parked only 24 hours, it's the same thing. It won't even give a hint of a kick until about the 8 second mark. Then it'll give a couple of sputters and eventually fire right up. Is this the fuel pressure regulator that's the problem? Is it not keeping the fuel at the rail pressurized properly when sitting? It's just annoying having to sit there cranking for so long to get going. I would think if it was the pump, it would give me problems when running.
View 5 RepliesToyota - Mr2 :: 1987 - CEL Comes On And Off While Driving
I drive a 1987 MR2 and as of late the CEL has been going on and then off.The only times I've noticed it come on is early in the morning when driving to work (430am) and usually its a somewhat rushed start (get in the car, start her up and go... no time to warm up).I checked for codes and it just flashes once then resets.The CEL comes on when the RPM's get to/go over 3K-3.5K and then it goes off once I let off and the RPM's drop below said RPM's... The car idles a little rough and I've noticed a slight smell of gas in the cabin when I start the car... don't know what is causing it but I just roll down the window and carry on...
View 1 RepliesToyota :: 1987 - Oil Cap Left Off?
Loaned my 1987 2wheel drive Toyota PU to someone. They drove 30 miles to get to my house to return it yesterday with the oil cap off. Oil spewed all over the engine. The cap was sitting next to the oil fill hole on the engine block. (Nope, it didn't fall out). Dipstick with cold engine has not a drop of oil on it. Person didn't hear any noises while driving here like that. What assorted problems could this cause with the engine and with any parts now covered with oil? after the oil is cleaned off, what should be done next: fill it? Tow it to a mechanic? Fill it and drive it to a mechanic? Don't fill it and tow it to a mechanic? (They have no idea why the cap was off or how it got that way)

View 1 RepliesNissan - Nx :: 1987 - Wiper Malfunction / Won't Turn On Sometimes
I have a 1987 Nissan Pulsar NX with odd wiper behavior. Sometimes the wipers work for a few minutes to a few days at a time, other times they won't turn on at all. They seem to work best when it's not raining. And sometimes I'll turn them on (just to see if they work today), get no response, turn them off again, drive for a few minutes and the wipers will suddenly give two or three swipes - with the switch still off!
Since we've replaced the wiper linkage and the wiper motor, all that's left to replace is the wiper switch, but that is proving to be much more complicated than expected.
No one has parts for this car. I was able to locate the wiper motor and linkage, but I can't find a switch anywhere. My questions:
1. Does this sound like a switch problem?
2. Any leads on a switch for this car? I don't want to buy one in a junkyard, as it will probably be as old and worn out as the one I'm replacing.
