85 truck carb, no fast idle now

Hi folks,  I have an 85 4x X-tra cab, just recently rebuilt the 22r engine.
Now it seems that it will not do the fast idle thing when starting cold.
Any ideas as to which vacum line I reversed, or is plugged?  Thanks for the
help, C

The Supra

Since the Supra has been discontinued in the United States, and I love the
series so what options do i have for a ultra-powerful racing car with around
300 hp. Should I import, buy a Celica, a Solara or go to another brand.
Plus I if anybody has a clean picture of the MKIV Supra, please send it to
me.

Thumping Avolon

I have a 1987 Avolon with 16000 miles on it.  It has this annoying
condition at 40-45 mph— that if you let off the accelerator during a
slight pull it will make a thumping noise as the trans downshifts out
off overdrive.

Has anyone had this problem?

Help Please

What causes a car to shake or rather vibrate after hitting a certain
speed?  Is it the tires or alignment?

'81 Starlet Interior

A 1981 Starlet was recently given to me for my first car. It’s nothing
fancy but still holds a lot of sentimental value because of the countless
hours that my father and I have spent together working on the car. We got
everything under the hood working well but the interior could use some
help. I was wondering what types of products I could use to replace things
like door panels, seat covers, etc. Does Toyota offer interior kits? If so,
will it be harder for me to get my hands on one considering the Starlet has
been discontinued in the US? Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: Advice on 92 Auto Celica-ST

Anyone out there familiar with this car? I just drove my car home from
the shop yesterday when TODAY I went out to start it again and there
were no lights and the engine would not turn over. What do you think is
wrong? I had a new manafold put in, an exhaust leak repaired and new
brake rotors and pads installed. Please help a gal in need:)
Thank you!

'89 Corolla lock question

I’ve got an ’89 Corolla, and my mom locked the trunk, and we can’t get it
open. It’s been a while since I utilized that function, and I can’t remember
how to get the trunk unlocked. The lock is not in a vertical position, it’s
in a horizontal position.
Any solution would be very helpful.
Please e-mail me if you’ve got the response to this lock question.

Thanks,
Jim
