  1. Wow thanks mate! I found a guy around my area whose an expert in Corollas (owns like 6 of them) and he came around and had a look. Said it was something to do with my timing and a faulty spark plug hence why it was misfiring and stalling on low revs. Gunna take it around to his place on Saturday and his going to fix her up, said its only small and won't take long. Guess I should pay close attention and learn as much as I can! Thanks again!
  2. I'm not really confident in myself to strip apart the carby and put it back together again. Might be an option to just take to the mechanics and let them sort it out. I was reading a post and apparently it could be an issue with the dizzy and rotor as well? Once again wouldn't have a clue how to fix it myself. If I was to take it to the mechanics what would be a guess on how much it would cost to get the carby fixed as well as the dizzy and rotor? Would a new/upgraded carby be an option?
  3. Hey guys Recently purchased an 82 Corolla. After picking it up drove it two hours to get home and all went well until the last 2k or so. Every time I slow down to a stop it pretty much stalled. Once Id re start I had to have full choke just to start it even tho the engine was warm. Spoke to the previous owner and he said it may have been the fuel filter as it was due for a change and that it had not been driven for 7 or so months. Suggested it may have kicked up a bit of crap from the bottom of the tank when I filled it up before the drive home. Went down and got a new fuel filter today and swapped them over but its still doing the same thing. Its fine sitting in park but as soon as I take it out of Park into Drive or Reverse it pretty much loses power and dies unless I work the shit out of the accelerator Took a video so you guys could hear what it sounded like, you'll hear it more towards the end: https://vid.me/yMBQ Any ideas on what could be causing this? This is my first Corolla so its going to be a learning experience Engine: 4k Transmission: Auto Help :)))
