So I just bought a Ford Cortina Mk3 and in it is a Toyota 3A 1.5L engine with a T40 Trani, Carb engines are a whole new level for me but yes I'm learning every day.
So my noob questions are-
Why does the engine stop like in 3-5 Sec after taking my foot off the gas padel at idle ?
How do i check the Oil level on the t40 tranni ?
How many HP does this Engine come with? (as i heard its around 70 ?)
And when the gears are at neutral and when i take the foot of the clutch pedal there is sort of a crunching or grinding sound coming off the engine/Trani and when I push on the clutch all the way it goes away ? Clutch plates ?
Thats it for now I'm sorry for the stupid questions I'm just a complete noob xD
PS- If its possible could some one link me to the E book of the Engine manual and the t40 trani ?
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?
