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

late post, but unless you find one in the yard, or someone parting. Unfortunately, if the dealer as the part will be expensive. the arm broke because it was only working with one motor.
as a convertible owner, i would hoard parts for future repair. had mine for 10 years, and the third motor in it... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
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... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
