bearing on crank shaft mite be needing replacing

Hi Paul, I cannot think of anything which would have interfered with the fuel line while fitting the caliper or pads. The fuel filter is fitted in the engine compartment against the firewall fairly low down. You may like to check and possibly replace it as sometimes the connections do leak. The other areas of concern are the seals fitted to the top and bottom of each injector, the feed connection into the fuel rail, and the return pipe to the tank. Make an inspection of all flexible pipes and joints, taking special note of all banjo bolt connections, making sure that all gasket washers are sealing correctly all the way to the tank. Regards John

;Check front tire pressure. It could be as simple as dirty brake pads or shoes. Otherwise you could look at the brake proportioning valve (responsible for sending equal amount of fluid pressure to both sides).I hope this helps!

The flasher is bolted to the firewall behind the right side of the instrument panel and you can't get to it from underneath the instrument panel. You will have to remove the center console fascia to get to the instrument cover screws and remove the instrument cover. Then you can get to the instrument holding screws and move the instrument panel out of the way. Either a service manual or AutoZone.com will have this information and pictures. Replace the flasher with a genuine Toyota flasher relay. The aftermarket relays might look like they fit but I have found out they don't work properly. The flasher is bolted to the firewall with a 13mm bolt. Take out the bolt and replace the flasher.

HiThe relay flasher for the indicators for 1990-2000 tarago/previas is behind the drivers dash board, i know this first hand because i sell tarago parts and pull them out all the time.cheers

did you have Diagram for 3TC-TE.now

they're speaking of fuseable links. They are larger gauge wires that are in the wiring harness near the battery off the positive battery cable. many times they have "swollen" junctions where they connect to the wiring itself and contain the fuseable element. they carry larger multi-circuit feeds to important components like the fuse box. use a simple light (lamp) driven test light to check them before and after the swollen part of the fuseable link. when you find the bad one replace with an actual fuseable link and not just a big wire because if a short exists (say at the back of the fuse panel) an unfused feed will burn up the panel or even do more damage to the wiring harness, and the cost of the repairs will soar. fire is even a possibility.
NOTE: toyota vans often have very long and expensive battery cables, perhaps even "junctions" where one connects to the next. check these cables while disconnected with an ohm meter or by bypassing them with jumper cables. keep a fire extinguisher handy should something go wrong.

Dear Sir:Proceed with the Readjust the ignition timing according with the specification manufacturer. 2) Readjust the GAP from spark plug to the s. manufacturer. 3) See for bad connections, corrosion, dirty, dust,vibration, loose wires, break or burn, test fuse, defective solenoid, relais, or bad battery and alternator. See the diagrams and proceed with common sense, and fix it. God bless youYou can connect remote start switch from with a + battery terminal and the other to the terminal solenoid, must be RUN, isolate the problem and fix it, according with your logic

hi it is built into the wire harnis under the dash under the drivers side its a small blck box thanks brian
