    No, because when I do, he somehow makes his way to a mud hole the next day. So you can do it and waste your wax and time! Lol

    I don't think it's a converter issue. It drives PERFECT until the CEL comes on. Transmission shifts fine and the torque converter locks up and releases like it is suppose to. I am having POWER issues. I know it's going to slow down going up hills because of it being the 3.0 and an automatice (why I like 5 spd transmissions.) It drops 2 gears on a hill that I know it isn't suppose to. All in all i know it's not a torque converter issue because of it doing what it is suppose to. after the wedding, I am going to change all the fluids besides the coolant. That got changed when I first purchased it. It needs an oil change anyways and who knows when the trans and diff fluids were changed, if at all!
    I think it's a sensor that has gone bad because when the CEL comes on it retards the timing.

    First one is sketchy. I never trust posts that have custom made pictures for the post.

    The second on is a possibility, but I would be taking a loss if I traded for that. And I'd prefer an extended cab.

    That would be the BEST place to start wouldn't it????? :smack:
    The only place around here that has an OBD 1 scanner is Franklin Automotive and they charge like $75 to do that.

    While that is true, you really cant just go around guessing at it. I don't know about up there, but there are several parts places that carry OBDI scanners. Have you called any and asked them?

    You can also do a manual pull:

    When the check engine light shows up in your 1990-95 Toyota vehicle, the quickest way to get the code is to access the diagnostic connector in the engine compartment ( usually sitting in the fender) or by the kick panel under the dash board in the passenger side. Connect a jumper wire between terminals TE1 and E1 terminals and by turning the key on, it will start flashing the codes in your dash. On Tercel and MR2, use the jumper wire between terminals T and E1 instead.

    If there are no codes, the check engine light will flash 2 times per second CONSTANTLY with no patterns or pauses. If there are any codes, it will be shown in 2 digits codes. Example: code 24 is shown as 2 flashes, a pause followed by 4 flashes. If there are mode codes, the next one will transmitted after 2.5 seconds. (One some models, codes are displayed in one digit code only and the difference is the codes are displayed with 4.5 seconds delay between codes). When finished reading the codes, turn the key off and remove the jumper wire.

    Here are the common codes for Toyota vehicles 1988-95:

    Code 11 Momentary interruption in power supply to ECU (electronic control unit or computer) up to 1991
    Code 12 Engine revolution signal missing
    Code 13 Rpm signal to ecu missing above 1000 rpm
    Code 14 Igniter signal to ecu missing
    Code 16 A/T control signal missing from ecu
    Code 21 Main oxygen sensor signal fault
    Code 22 Water temperature sensor circuit fault
    Code 23 and 24 Intake air temperature signal fault
    Code 25 Air/fuel ratio LEAN
    Code 26 Air/fuel ratio RICH
    Code 27 Sub-oxygen sensor signal or heater circuit fault
    Code 28 No.2 oxygen sensor/heater signal fault
    Code 31 and 32 Air flow meter circuit or Vacuum sensor signal fault
    Code 34 and 36 Turbo-charging pressure signal fault
    Code 35 Altitude compensation sensor signal fault
    Code 41 Throttle position circuit fault
    Code 42 Vehicle speed sensor circuit
    Code 43 No starter signal to the ecu
    Code 51 AC signal on; DL contact off (in trany shifter with diagnostic connector jumped)
    Code 52, 53 and 55 Knock sensor fault
    Code 71 EGR system malfunction
    Code 72 Fuel cut solenoid signal fault
    Code 78 Fuel pump control signal fault
    Code 81, 83, 84 and 85 TCM communication fault

    OK here is what I got.......
    Code 51 AC signal on; DL contact off (in trany shifter with diagnostic connector jumped)
    Code 52, 53 and 55 Knock sensor fault
    Bill pm me with more info on the code 51. I might be coming back to your shop to get the knock sensor redone......
