I have a 2TC powered 76 corolla with the 3 spd toyoglide trans. I have a idle problem.....runs great but when it's at idle it's very rough...almost feels like its got a cam in it like an old school V8.
I just revived this car after sitting damn near 2 yrs. So everything is new.....spark plugs, cap/rotor, oil and oil filter, timing/idle tuning, starter, battery, trans fluid, coolant, Front brake pads/4 wheel bleeding & flush, air and fuel filters, exhaust manifold gasket, exhaust flange gasket, and wiper fluid. Putting pn a PCV Valve today (was on order). Did all the work myself. $300 later for all the parts :-)
The only problem I forsee is the fuel pump....was making noise before but now it's normal. The car was sitting for 2 yrs until about 3 wks ago. I do have a set of new points I could put on...but I'm not having ignition/timing problems and the set that was in there looked really good.
Just want to know if it's possible that thats my idle problem. Other than that I'd have no clue what it is. As far as I can see I have no vacuum leaks. PLEASE HELP
