Friends 92 celica

dcrusupra · 01-09-2006, 05:02 AM

My friends 92 celica vibrates like hell when its idling. It gets a little better in neutral and it gets a little better if you turn the a/c off. and it stops vibrating when you start driving. any ideas?

A tune up.

change the plugs

ie. tune up

Considering it's age, I'd give it a tune up a little more thorough than that. Spark plug wires, cap and rotor, spark plugs, fuel filter, an intake "cleansing", such as the use or combination of a can of throttle body cleaner (I use Valvoline), B-12 ChemTool Total Fuel System Kit, or SeaFoam, and a good fuel system cleanser to pour in the tank.

Do this all at once when the car is ready for it's next oil change. I also recommend an engine flush. You can also take it a step further with the flush too. After you do the flush, refill oil with an inexpensive brand, minus one quart, and substitute it with a quart of ATF. Drive 50-100 miles then change the oil again to the usual brand.

DO NOT USE THE ATF TECHNIQUE ON TURBO CHARGED VEHICLES.

I did forget to mention, the car only has 40,000 miles on it.

Regardless of miles, some of those components are simply old.
