Starlet16v

Hi guys. First of all sorry posting it here, i can not post it at the marketplace. It's been almost 8 years since i've sold my loved EP91 but those pillars kept safe and sound in the closet. These were built to hold a Morel CDM54 midrange and Morel MT23 Tweeter from Morel's 3-way Elate series. The pillars are still in great condition although some glue might be required here and there. How do i upload photos here? If someone wants them i'll be giving them for free PM please, the first one wins. Cheers, Itamar

The originals o-rings have been replaced. the lower rubber injector shock absorber will be replace ass soon as my new injectors will arrive. I've found out that the 96-99 4E-FE Starlet's and 96-98 5E-FE Paseo's use the same injectors, so I've orderd 4 OEM specs new ones from the US (40$ each). Original ones cost 140$ each. If that won't solve the problem I'll check the coolant temprature sender, but again, since it got worse after the ultrasonic clean, I'm pretty sure it's faulty injector/s. I'll keep update. Itamar.

Hi guys and thanks for answering. Well, it doeswnt seems like a contact problems of the HT leads or spark plugs since they both new (10K km) and original, and there are no problems at all during driving and at morning start (I woke up today at 6:00 just to check how the engine starts! at 10 it's pretty hot out there). No faults at all at the diagnostic checks. I checked the value of the water temprature sensor on hot engine and it was OK, like all the other sensors (I have 4E-FE engine book). I'm thinking the problem is leaking injector/s. When it's cold the engine starts with no problem - it needs more fuel so leakage is helpful. When it's hot the over-fuel is doing a mass. the engine is harder to start and the air-fuel mixture is not correct, this is why it takes few secounds for the engine to correct itself. The problem occured before the ultrasonic clean procedure and got worse afterwards, sorry for did'nt mention it at first post. I think the best solution for my 11-years-old-hard-life-200,000-km-Toyota are 4 brand new injectors. Cheapy cheap on EBAY. Thanks for the willing to help! Itamar.

Hi guys. Recently I have annoying problem with my 5 door M/T 97' Starlet. It refuse to start immediatly, only after 10 turns of strater. After it starts, the engine is trembling on low rpm for sec or two and afterwards it goes normal. Last week I did ultrasonic injector clean, twice. Nada. We also did a "leak test" at 4 bar (higher pressure then normal) but it seems that they all OK. If the engine is runnig, I turn it off for 5-10 minutes and start again - no problem. If the engine is runnig, I turn it off for 1-4 hours and try to start it again - difficult to start. Does somebody knows for sure if the fuel pump should begin building pressure at minute the switch is on the "ON" position or it strats building pressure just after the engine is runnig? somebody told me that the fuel pump in the EP91 starts building up pressure just after the engine rpm is at least 400, but i found no avidence that support it. Thanks guys! Itamar.

The first good thing with the Optima "yellow top" is that it's very durable + extremely long life. The secound good thing with it is that it has a lot of "start up" power (amper), few times more then standard batteries. It is good for stereo gear cause it can dump almost all it's capacity in a blink of an eye, wich is critical when you have a sudden elctrical drop caused by long bass or drum. You can locate the battery in the trucnk beacuse it does not emmiting any gas, totally closed system. Itamar.

Hi guys. My name is Itamar, 25, from Israel. I guess I'm the only Starlet-lover round here, so I'm looking for friends over the sea ;) I have some mechnical knowledge and moreover I have Autodata, Toyota EPC and the original 4e-fe engine book. If you need some help with numbers or specs - please don't hesitate to ask me! I'll be glad to help! Cheers! Itamar.
