That makes no sense. Read it again and correct it with a proper question

It pops up occasionally, then disappears.

Can’t believe I didn’t think of that! Was lying bed last night thinking about getting a bigger fan. Oh well, better welds or better lungs? Perhaps I’ll just be sensible and allow the fumes to clear before looking at the weld!

Thanks for that. I had a fun afternoon. The key thing I found was keeping the mig wire short out of the gun to the contact point. And starting the next spot off the edge last one. And as you say going slow and giving it a chance to puddle. I have a fan to blow away the fumes though as it means i am getting pretty close to the weld, and when I lift the mask to have a closer look i was getting a good breath of fumes. Love watching your work!

It's behind the rear seat tank. This is the part number. 83320-19205 If you google it various options come up pretty cheap.

I'm getting stuck into my KE15 at the moment, dealing with the rusted area inside the scuttle panel at the heater air intake. Very much a beginner welder and learning as I go on an area that won't be visible. I've quickly learned with butt welding not to have the two pieces of metal flush, as the penetrance isn't there. Soon as you grind it off, the joint is week and you are pretty much back where you started. Back out to have another go.

Sounds very reasonable

Is it just me, or has this section disappeared from the forum?

There are a lot of parts to hunt down for the AE86 aircon and they are old, worn out and expensive. If you can find them. But the upsurge in AE86 prices has people looking to restore to factory. If there are modern alternatives in a complete kit you can retrofit I would be doing that. What has your research thrown up so far.

12 years later I’m tipping he no longer has the car! What’s your indication for thinking you might need them?

The airpump is part of the emissions so you don't need that, or the cat con. Cut your losses and put a non pollution engine in it. These guys have a KE55 listed on facebook right now. Gamage Motors Corolla ke 55 parts available 0773180126 Galle

Surely you can source a replacement original fitment Carb and distributor locally. I think you are going to be chasing your tail forever and need to revert to stock fittings. I expect you know that the U designation relates to emissions. So while the various vacuum lines are superfluous, it may not be happy if you get them wrong.

is it still running on LPG?

Can't help with WA, but you can always post yours to Performance Ignition. They have been around for very many years. https://performanceignition.com.au/p/troubleshooting -

Also try the AE82 Corolla Owners Group page on facebook. Failing that I would get yours rebuilt. You wont find a new one easily/reasonably.
