Herro.... I don't think this car really needs that much of an introduction as I'm sure most of you may (or possibly may not) recognize it. Picked this up from Edgar earlier this week after my last daily was stolen the Friday before Turkey Day and was recovered the following Wednesday in an even ****tier condition than it left. lol So the Celica is going to continue to serve daily duties for me as it did the previous owners. Anywho, it's been about 9 years since I was last in a 6GC and I'm happy to be back in one. I have a few things planned for it, but trying to prioritize some other plans first before I can set funds aside for the car. I'd post more pictures, but it's cold as bawls and it's raining/snowing/sleeting down here and I've been working 15 hour days. -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}

I pulled the oil pump off tonight and that hoe is bone dry. I oiled up the gear housing like the BP oil spill and turned the gear with a 1400ft-lb impact at full tilt and I can see it puking up the oil from one side to the other.
Not sure why the oil pump isn't picking up oil from the pan like a $2 hooker on Christmas day. I left some oil in the pump to see if it'll help prime the pump to pull some kind of vacuum or something and slapped it back on the block with some duct tape. I'll dump a couple of quarts of oil into the motor later and turn the gear with a hamster wheel to see if that helps. until then, back to Among Us cuz someone is looking a little sus over there in the electrical room.... -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}
