Re: Installing cylinder head
Thank you very much, SuperRedMR2, for the perfect answer. I have a small winch I use to drop motor or different parts. It passеs exactly over the block and takes the weight. I have seen red and blue sealants in some photos of the club. Some colleagues here use sealants only for paper gasket. They i...

Re: Repair manual MK1a Bluetop
Thank you but I have this one and I have used it. I'm sorry I write to late. I have had some problems with the forum and I couldn't write always when I want. I hope now is OK. I found a Corolla manual but it is also from 1987. Actually I have searched manual for Bluetop 1985-1986 where one can see t...

Installing cylinder head
Hi All, I am changing the pistons and all necessary gaskets, seals and o-rings of my Bluetop MK1a (4AGELC). I will be very thankful if you help me with your advises. 1. May I install the intake manifold to the cylinder head out of the car (the motor, the block is in), so on the table, together with ...

Re: Caliper sliders seizing
I use a copper grease for more than 20 years but only for the back of the brake pads, because this grease ruins the rubber caps. For the sliders I use silicone grease (for example Ate) as a good protection for the caps...

Bluetop
Thanks Jimi, I think I have this manual. It has 319 pages and gives information about 4A-F and 4A-GE engines. But there are missing pages and if you have the fool file I'll appreciate if you send it to my mail: ufer.1957@abv.bg. I have almost all important technical data and need only to compare som...

Repair manual MK1a Bluetop
Hi everyone, I have some troubles with the engine and have to repair it - cylinder head, piston rings, bearings etc. I have some repair manuals from 1986, 1987, 1988 in English and German but I have seen too much differences especially by the sort of head bolts, torques and torques methods between t...

Re: underside to frunk heater matrix pipes
I tried at Saturday to get out the 2 small pipes without dropping the steering rack - there was no success. I could clean the surface from a rust with a sandpaper and connect new rubber hoses to the cut steel pipes which I cut myself - they had two 5 mm holes. Now all the system functions good witho...

Rear brakes MR2 AW11 - MK1a
Hey guys! I have a small dilemma. The pad wear indicator of the rear brakes was downside on my vehicle. In the BGB are at the topside, as the front indicators too. I've seen some pictures in some forums which are showing also a downside and a topside position. What is exactly right or wrong - down o...

Noise
I had equal noise but not exactly the same. Especially in Summer or when the motor is very hot. For me it seems as an alternator bearing but it could be also worse - more important bearings. I made only one small trick - higher idle with 20-30 rpm more. Now i have no the bad noise...

RPM
I made that trick 3 years ago - (2500 rpm). At first with 5 mm hole (1800 rpm) and second - with 4 mm hole (1500 rpm) because in my country (Bulgaria) is warmer as in the UK. These RPM now are absolutely perfect for our climate. I gave this trick to some friends of mine and they were fully satisfied...

Power motor gear
I've got 2 gears for the both doors from Peter Gidden but I changed only my drivers door gear (left door in continental Europe). Both gears are the same but I think they have an universal construction and that should be not a problem for the both doors. There was a little difference only at the orig...

Hallo friends, I would like to comment the payment of the membership fee. Last year I have become an offer from imoc.co.uk to pay the sum of 7,50 pounds (about 10 Euros). That is not the problem. The problem is that I have to pay in my bank about 20 or 30 Euros for such transfer every year. I want t...
