Update:
I finally got it to run on the streets Had to order new radiator (leaking). Left front brakes is sticking (brake piston issue) so I had to order new brake caliper and piston. Had to bleed the rear brakes (rear canister was out of brake fluid) due to air.

Re: Please help with my1976 Toyota Levin 3TC.
OK, today I tried starting it with starter fluid.
