Non-Critical Info: Was my daily driver for 2&1/2 years. Haven"t needed it for transportation for a year. I"ve been able to let it get to Op. Temp. every week, and drive it every now and then.
5F-SE was a volume engine used in Camry"s and Mr2"s. It"s had some rough idle problems in the past. I"ve used injector cleaner, new fuel filter, new pump, seafoamed it twice, new oem intake, air filter, new spark plugs, wires, and distributor, and a couple other things. I bought spark plug gaskets because the plugs have oil on the threads, maybe that"ll help, maybe it"s a vacuum leak, maybe it"s just a dirty EGR or AIC, I don"t know.
So, the deal with the e-brake assembly and rotors is that when the car was sitting, the left e-brake rusted to the rotor and I had to smash it off. so the rotor has hammer indents.
You"re going to have to be ok with the fact that their are pieces of wood holding the battery in place because you won"t find a hold down anywhere online. And you can"t just go to Advance and get a generic one because it"s the kind that only has one rod.
Seat belt occasionally is slow to roll back. Still locks when pulled hard.
Every now and then there"s a brake light out. Haven"t looked into it.
The paint can be seen from the pictures. The roof, parts of the hatch, and the hood all have orange peel/clear coat fade. I"m sure there"s some swirls and scratches, but I think it"s common sense to address the rust first before going to paint.
More on the rust situation:
It"s worth noting that using a 4 post lift at a shop is ok, as the jack points have even distribution of weight holding. It"s not that bad for a 29 year old New York car. There will be other bolts and parts that fight you, but I"ve still been able to do work on it. I once tried to put a thicker rear sway bar on and the shop told me that it was too risky to take the bolts out with their being no weld material left.
Wheels and Tires:
Tires are about 2 years old, and treads are 9-7/32nd"s all around. Wheels on the car are the "Turbo" wheels that came on AllTrac"s. Included wheels are a OEM 5 spoke that are lighter.

I have had lots of fun and memories in this car, and I hope you will too.
I hope that you can give her the Love, Time, and Care that I can"t :"(
