Go Fishy! :thumbsup: :)

In flat, open terrain, the police can also easily see you coming and so do their radar guns. 20+ mph over the speed limit is a felony which can be punishable with jail time. Might not be worth it.

Permatex gasket sealing products found in virtually any auto parts stores have done a good job for me all the way around, except for the Permatex Blue. My favorite is Permatex Ultra Copper, as it can handle any gasket job, from standard to high temperature...

sds - What synthetic oil did you try? They are vastly different from brand to brand and many of them aren't even really synthetic oils but are merely petroleum oils subjected to more refining. Buyer beware.

I use Permatex Ultra Copper or Red on valve cover gaskets. I have had very poor results with regular RTV. I don't use it to seal anything, but to let dry a bit and then put the gasket in place on the valve cover and let it dry some more, so that gasket is nice and snug. This way the gasket...

cj10 - You can use the smoke test to pinpoint vacuum leaks. It's easy and effective. Search YouTube.com, Keywords --> Scotty Kilmer, Smoke.

Might want to print out the Kelly Blue Book values listed for that Corolla, show them to that dealer and question their outrageous asking price.

A total rip off. You can find much lower priced vehicles from private sellers on Craigs List.

$8,000?!!! Holy rip off Batman! :eek: Does this car have 1,000 pounds of solid gold bars in the trunk?!

I remember when I was driving down the highway one day doing 20 mph over the speed limit and a news report came on the radio about speeding, reporting that anything 20 mph + over the posted speed limit is a felony, punishable with jail time and immediate revocation of your drivers license. I...

But are the tires capable of the sustained high speed driving? What if a deer, or whatever, suddenly jumps out into the road in front of you? What about the police?

Wow, talk about speed demons. Might be wise to invest in a radar detector. If it saves you from just one speeding ticket, it would pay for itself. The additional peace of mind is nice too.

"Well officer, you see my car wants to cruise at 80 mph".:D

Changing transmission fluid before it reaches the point of falling flat on its face, causing the transmission to fail and hitting the wallet with a huge repair bill, doesn't cause problems. That would be like saying changing the engine oi, or tires, or brake pads, etc., will cause problems. Of...

Welcome to the Corolla Forum! :thumbsup::clap::):thumbup::thumbup1::balloon: :rockon: At 215,000 miles the vehicle is at a mileage where almost anything could fail. That is very, very high mileage to the tune of over 30,000 miles per year, which means it could very well likely have been a...

SeaFoam is not like AMSOIL Power Foam, which is a far superior and versatile product in my humble opinion. :) To check for oil consumption/burning, start the engine, leave the transmission in Park and really rev up the engine up and down, very quickly several times. Have someone else do this...
