Drives: 1985 Toyota Tercel SR5 wagon 1.5
Location: usa
Hello, I just bought a tercel wagon and it runs great. Only 162,000 miles on a 1985. I love it already, but it is idling erraticly. Almost dies, then revs itself up. Once it is warmed it dies while idling. It is also hard to start, must pump it alot. It also is a bit lurchy in parking lots at low speeds when not touching the gas. I assume this is all related to the idle. I just sold my toyota pickup and never had any of these problems so am a bit iritated by my new toyota. Is this a carb problem? I had to borrow a $1000 to buy this car and am now broke so am hoping for some cheap options. Thank you.
