Anyway, I bought this station wagon two years ago in Coos Bay, Oregon, specifically because gas at the time was $4.10 a gallon and climbing. The owner was the original buyer, and had been a Toyota mechanic in Coos Bay from the time he bought it. He had a maintenance log over an inch think. This is one of the main reasons I bought it. At the time, the owner had just replaced all the vacuum hoses, the water pump, alternator, radiator/hoses, and a half dozen other things. It only had 134k miles on it too. Ran like brand new. Unfortunately, as this car is over 30 years old, things are bound to come up. And that's the reason I'm here. But more on that in my next post in the appropriate forum.
The thing is, the 3tc engine is really esoteric, and not many people know anything about it. I can't seem to find a service manual for it either. So...here I am!! Glad to be here.
