nah it wouldnt slip wit low fluid. you would just find it very hard to engage a gear in a manual.

lol its old but its good

i beleive you would experience some clutch slippage

yes you do, you have 2 hands and only one mouth :naughty:

sambucca is a good idea if ya wanna end up mortal drunk like. my friends are banned from sambucca in one of my local pubs

dude if you ever come to the north east of england you can come out on the piss with me (that means come to my local town centre and get drunk lol)

accident and emergency. the place i met that girl in my thread dude.

well im not gonna lie lol i hit the pub every night pretty much for a couple of beers. at weekends im out clubbin most nights so it tends to get a bit messy. but then im young and single so why not.

i would get it trailered to the shop if possible. it may put extremely increased stresses on the other components

yep high tension leads, generally thats what there called in the uk. I know what your on about CRE when you mention the dizzy cap cover. though this car has never had one as long as ive owned it. perhaps ill try and source one

Guys i may be in the market for a new set of ht leads. I replaced mine with a standard set about a year ago but they seem to be chaffing on the underside of the bonnet (hood) and 2 have almost worn through. I guess they need to be slightly shorter has anyone got any recomendations? and...

dont laugh guys lol I know it needs a lot of work lol

dude if you go down that route best of renewing the entire cooling system aswell ie new hoses all round and a new rad. also you might want to fit a new hg to the transplant motor to avoid future hg issues at the bare minimum

cheers guys that would be a great help. Are the filters etc for the box readily available from toyota?

i got goodridge hoses on mine aswell, well i say that. They are installed on the front end but the rears are still in my glove box

aye i always check the fluid with engine running at opp temp and selector in either park or neutral. guess ill just stick with dropping the sump plug every few weeks till all the nasty old fluid has been removed

if you tightened the screws up too tight you could have crushed the gasket. also like i said above id be doing a compression test as what you say about the coolant would be a cause for concern

hmmm i guess it could be a good idea to ask a friend if i can use his garage as he has a 4 post ramp. would be much easier to see play standing up under the car with plenty of light on it.

I have slight play in my left side front wheel (passenger side for me as im in the uk) the play is evident only if i hold the top and bottom part of the wheel. no side to side play at all. could this be the wheel bearing? or is it more likely to be the top ball joint? i couldnt see any movement...

Oh and i forgot to add. The old fluid came out as if it was water. i guess it must have degraded a hell of a lot
