Hello from Maine, USA.
I am the owner of a fixer upper 1995 Toyota Celica GT convertible  Unfortunately I'm not a mechanic. I'm a computer guy. I am trying to get everything together for my mechanic to fix it up. The top can open, but not close, I heard this can be caused by low fluid in the hydraulic pump. I saw a video about it here (for a Mustang) https://youtu.be/Ym6Ec23nu6M My questions are : 1. What fluid should I get ? 2. Are there any instructions I can show to my mechanic other than that video ? Or does the video basically approximate my same setup ? Thanks Craig

the convertible top?
does not use any hydraulic fluid. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=39973 this is what you need to read..... probably its working with one motor, and closing the top requires both, since is heavier. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...
