1986 Toyota Tercel Reviews, Pricing & Specs

86 tercel smooth acceleration jerky coasting

My tercel runs smooth when giving it gas...if i am cruising at slow speed low rpm it feels like the front end, right side is going to fall off. low speed high rpm smooth as silk. Highway speeds smooth if constantly giving it gas. Let off the gas its not happy. Any ideas?

VIN already has a listing

tried entering my vin for a 1986 Toyota Tercel, but says there's already a listing for that.

My 86 Tercel has a fairly low idle speed. How do I adjust it up?

It's occasionally alright, but sometimes it sputters, and almost dies.Where would I turn up the idle speed at? I'm car illiterate, so please bear with me. I know where I can start my car, and pull in the engine to rev the car, and I believe it's near there from what I've gathered on other forums, but I've never found a definitive answer for my 86.

We own a 1986 Toyota Tercel wagon with a stick shift transmission. Recently it started making a clunk sound whenever the gears shift is moved from one gear to another. Other than the noise, it works fine. It does not slip out of gear or anything like that. Is this something to be concerned about?

my 86 toy tercel starts to over heat after you have driven about 15miles.....WHY?

timing belt, a/c belts, fuses, have been changed!!! boiling out of the plastic container that the antifreeze goes in.....not hot from radiator!!! have to refill fluids almost daily!!!
