So ... are you saying that the bolt won't come out all the way because the transmission is in the way? Could you maybe get a jack under the transmission with a block of wood, remove the transmission mount, and then jack the transmission up enough to clear? (That seems like a pain but sometimes...

Glad I could help :-D

Another thing is making sure it is clean. I spray it off with the same cleaner and lint-free cloth that I use on my glasses if the image starts to get blurry spots in it.

Beck/Arnley are what I use. Just as good as the OEM ones.

I'm going to give PERL a shot the next time I detail my car. Seen good results from it.

You can get an LED trunk light for your car, and you can get an LED license plate light that will be bright enough to illuminate the area the camera points at. The washing out has absolutely nothing to do with the MP count, and everything to do with how it reacts to little to no light (and all...

Clear coat is the top layer of paint that gives the car its shine. The one that goes over the front bumper cover and the hood is a paint protection film. Underneath the paint is the base coat.

So I see a wire for an electric choke, I'm assuming that one would tie into the coolant temperature circuit somewhere. I'm also seeing an idle speed solenoid that would tie into the A/C clutch circuit (sometimes these also activate if the power steering pump has a load on it). I'm having a...

I'm looking online right now. I see a wire for the electric choke, trying to figure out the other three.

Typically the doors aren't interchangeable between generations. Looking at some pictures; however, they look damn close to the same door. Guess the only way to tell would be to take some picture of your '81 door (specifically, where it bolts to the car), and compare it to the guy's '86...

This is what I did on my Matrix, and what I will do on my Corolla. It is overkill, but there are several factors that will change your schedules. For instance, I drive aggressively and live in a desert, so some things I will change more often than others on this forum will. This list is...

I don't use RTV unless the old gasket had it. Generally, valve cover gaskets don't use RTV. I've only used RTV on water pumps, thermostat housings, and around the water jackets on intake manifold gaskets myself.

If you have more than 3 full warm up and cool down cycles in those 2 weeks (and most likely you did), then you are set. I replace the upstream HO2S every 60,000 miles for optimum economy and to keep the engine running best. The downstream I don't touch, until it fails. The wheel being off...

Disconnect the line, and then use the needle to clear the jam, then use compressed air for about 30 seconds to a minute., and then reconnect the line, otherwise, the jam will keep coming back. It may also be easier to remove the nozzle, run the pump without it for 30 seconds, and replace it...

Look like they are both 5 x 100mm with a similar offset, so you shouldn't need anything else.

31mm festoon.

Can you record it and upload to YouTube?

Probably have weak stitching in that area.

You have to buy a chipped key, and usually, to self-program it, you need two keys (prevents someone with your key from easily making a chipped copy unless they have both).
