    Issues (Idle/Starting)

    i worked on alot of older toyota (obd1) and alot of the sensors wouldnt set a code unless they had a short or open. so if your iacv is failing but not failed completly its possible you wont get a mil for it.

    Steering Rack Leak?

    you should add brake fluid to the powersteering. its a coorosive lubricant that causes the seals to swell and stop leaking for a little while. (dont really do that its an old trick used car salesmen do when a car has a powersteering leak) yea the only way to fix it is to pull the rack and...
