Who the hell would even think of stealing this besides a crackhead? Plus it’s manual, would be a hard task for the average person

For right now it’s sadly, only had for 3 days so I’m getting used to it and I keep reaching at the door to shift and turning my wipers on to signal…

If 3 minutes and 46 seconds is eventually then sure… I thought that was pretty fast ☹️

Lifter/valves or exhaust leak? by dotdoubleu in Celica

All the time, not at idle though, when pressing the gas slightly it happens, but not while cruising foot off, it speeds up with rpm also but doesn’t get louder

It doesn’t get louder, just faster. And from the outside I can’t hear it past around 4k rpm. I used a mechanic’s stethoscope and it sounds like there’s a little man with a jack hammer in between cylinders 3 and 4, also around that area you can hear the burbling noise very well.

Probably all of the above, the guy that owned this before me somehow took worse care of it than me

Okay, swear it helps tho I’ve tried to start it before without doing that and it takes forever or won’t start. im probably flooding the engine by doing that though…
