Talking about cracks, go to Walmart you'll see a lot of them.
hi scotty, my daughter and i drove across the country in our 1998 honda crv pulling an overland trailer visiting 8 national parks .when we were in zion we had to wait our turn for the one-way tunnel .when i started from standstill poor little blue had to manually be shifted to first gear (its an automatic) and we were on our way but the temp gauge went up to a scary 34 position,and back down after summiting the mountain and that happened 6to eight times during our 15000 mile trip, is that to be expected or could the thermostat have caused it? after watching this video I'm inclined to change it.
TPMS gives false positives all the time, so worthless
I have a 1995 acura integra LS what do you think, of these cars. I would like to hear your opinion on this particular car.
My girlfriend is Abby. Abby Normal.
Watching this video your doing it wrong.
At 9:36 Scotty Cat sighting ?
Everything that ISN'T a Honda or a Toyota is barely acceptable, or pure trash.
Hey Scotty I just figured out a great idea. I've been doing a ton of work under my 2012 Forester. Yeah I know I'll never make that mistake again. I put her up on wheel ramps and a large piece of thick cardboard to save my back (Gravel driveway). My problem is I'm losing nuts and bolts left and right (Fortunately I found them all. But the worse thing is all my tools. There's barely enough room for me and my tools are laying all over next to me. Every time I need to change them out I'm forced to feel around for the right one. Then it hit me. In my basement work shop I have a 18 inch bar Magnet that I hang tools from. It's super strong. Take another bar magnet like it and it will stick to the bottom of the car. Done with a tool stick it to the magnet. Everything is right next to you and in sight. No more hunting around. Works for steel nuts and bolts also. Can't lose them if they're right in your face.
Amazed on how the Celica has hold up, specially in regards to plastics and rubbers, those things just usually get trashed in cars in a few years or at most a decade in better ones. Some polymers were developed in the 70's onwards to work on different climates (hot and dry, cold and wet, etc.) allowing for global vehicles to be developed. Still, the big manufacturers like GM, kept different parts for different countries in many cases or compromised on the spectrum of climate resistance, which fitted well with planned obsolescence. Toyota probably only used one part for each seal, hose, lines or whatever, to keep the assembly efficient and export all over the World with the same quality. What pisses me of is that Quality Engineering was actually sort of "invented" by 2 Americans but only the Japanese wanted to implement it at first, hence Toyota's Total Quality Management and such based on Juran and Deming's work.
In regards to the cooling system, it should be pointed out that it's a closed pressure loop (15psi manometric) so it doesn't boil the water even in temperatures close to boiling, though antifreeze in the solution also increases boiling point, the failure on the radiator or connections might have some small vapor, but a lot less then pure demineralized water, so you always need to keep an eye open for leaks. Also, radiators will crap out with fouling, faster then the water jacket, though I would check the later depending on how old the engine is and if the coolant solutions were properly used or some knuckledragger just dumped tap water on the system requiring some chemical cleaning.
