    99 Corolla Alternator died

    You were absolutely right, it was the fuel injectors. I got new ones from a junkyard instead of cleaning out my old ones. Thanks so much for your help!

    99 Corolla Alternator died

    Well I checked the injectors and there was gummed up oil next to them so I'll clean them next. As far as the spark plugs go, I checked them and even though they were a little burned, they produced a nice bluish-white spark

    99 Corolla Alternator died

    I bought a light tester and it's showing me there's spark in all cylinders. I also checked the fuel pump and it works but for some reason car still won't start.... it just cranks and I'm all out of ideas

    99 Corolla Alternator died

    I just found that out tonight. It didn't look like there was an electrical arc in the spark plugs. I don't have the light tester, but I removed the coil and installed a plug on it. That should be a good way to test, right? I saw no visible spark

    Hesitation With Gas Pedal.

    I read that hesitation can also be due to a failing fuel pump. Look into that and see if that is the issue. I'm replacing mine as soon as I get the part.

    Toyota Corolla spare parts

    Which part do you need? Can you go to a junk yard? Over here you can go to a junk yard and pull whatever part you need and buy it.

    99 Corolla Alternator died

    The car died while we were driving. We suspect Alternator. We got a new alternator and had that and the old one tested. The new one showed "Good" and the other one couldn't get a good read (so bad?) After installing, the car still won't start. It would turn over and die. Sometimes, it will...

    Turn signal issue

    Nope, I found the problem. I took apart the signal stalk and ran some tests. Turns out the connectors aren't making very good contact.. easy fix!

    Dash cams

    I bought a Novatek 96220. It's a Chinese brand but I think it's very good for the price. I paid $20 Canadian for it...

    3rd gear lugging?

    So shift at 3500 or 4000?

    3rd gear lugging?

    I have a 99 corolla in a m/t. Why is my 3rd gear lugging? I'd shift from 2500 or even 3000, but the rpm will drop below 1000 and slowly go up and it even shakes a bit. Is it just how the 3rd gear is made? Anyone else experience this in their m/t corollas?

    Turn signal issue

    My right turn signal doesn't work. It makes the normal ticking sound, but the light doesn't come on on the dash or the exterior light. The left turn signal works just fine. My question is: If this problem is a loose turn signal stalk, why does the ticking sound come on but not the light? The...
