"Trip A" is a way of measuring the mileage you take on a short trip. If you push the button you should find that you have three settings (Mileage, "Trip A", and "Trip B") A short push of the button changes the setting. Holding the button down erases the setting. Holding the button does not erase the mileage setting, only the "Trip A" or "Trip B" setting. The first setting is the mileage of the vehicle . The second setting is "Trip A" will allow you to measure the distance of a short or long trip. You probably also have a "Trip B" which also allows you to keep track of the mileage for a second trip at the same time(a trip with in a trip). I reset "Trip B" after each oil change so I know how long it has been since the last oil change . I reset "Trip A" whenever I fill the gas tank so I can figure my fuel economy (Miles Per Gallon.MPG). Just divide the miles traveled by the number of gallons used. 350 miles divided by 10 gallons = 35 miles per gallon.
You will find that "Trip A" and "Trip B" can be very useful tools for taking care of your Toyota.

Usually a sign that the clutch or belt is slipping. Could be caused by failing clutch, failing belt tensioner or worn belt. Rarely caused by relay. See this post http://www.fixya.com/answer/answerpageslideview.aspx?thid=27326785&ctg=231&brd=1071&fml=141

The thermostat is located in the water inlet housing that is connected to the lower radiator hose.
The thermostat is equipped with a by-pass valve. If the engine tends to overheat, removal of the thermostat would cause a decrease in cooling system efficiency.

CAUTION NEVER drain coolant directly onto the ground! NEVER open, service or drain the radiator or cooling system when hot; serious burns can occur from the steam and hot coolant. Also, when draining engine coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted to ethylene glycol antifreeze and could drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantities. Always drain coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or is several years old.


Fig. The oil filter must be removed to access the thermostat on the 5S-FE engine

1. Position a suitable drain pan under the radiator drain **** and drain the cooling system.
2. On the 7A-FE engine disconnect the engine coolant temperature switch harness from the water inlet housing.

Fig. Disconnect the engine coolant temperature switch wiring located on the side of the thermostat housing

1. Remove the oil filter on 5S-FE engines.
2. Loosen the hose clamp and disconnect the lower radiator hose from the water inlet housing.

Fig. Loosen the radiator hose clamp ...



Fig. ... then slide the hose off the thermostat housing

1. Remove the two nuts from the water inlet housing and remove the housing from the water pump studs.

Fig. Only two nuts hold the housing to the cylinder head



Fig. Pull the housing straight out to remove

1. Remove the thermostat and rubber O-ring gasket from the water inlet housing.

Fig. Then pull the thermostat and gasket out



Fig. Sometimes the gasket is stuck and has to be pried out of the head
To install:

1. Make sure all the gasket surfaces are clean. Clean the inside of the inlet housing and the radiator hose connection with a rag.
2. Install the new rubber O-ring gasket onto the thermostat. On 5S-FE engines, align the jiggle valve with the upper side of the stud bolt. Insert the thermostat into the housing.

Fig. Only use the correct temperature range thermostat when for replacement



Fig. Align the jiggle valve within a 10°gap of the stud bolt-7A-FE engine



Fig. Align the jiggle valve within a 5°gap of the stud bolt-5S-FE engine

1. Position the water inlet housing with the thermostat over the studs on the water pump and install the two nuts. Tighten the two nuts to 78-82 inch lbs. (9-10 Nm).

Don't forget to install a new O-ring onto the water inlet pipe. Apply soapy water to the O-ring prior to installation.

1. Connect the lower radiator hose to the inlet housing and install the hose clamp.
2. Attach the water temperature switch connector.
3. Install the oil filter and check the oil level if removed.
4. Fill the cooling system with a good brand of ethylene glycol based coolant.
5. Start the engine and inspect for leaks.

1. Remove the right hand cover under the engine.

It could be a wheel bearing either the left or right side maybe both. When driving around corners note if the noise gets louder when turning either way, for example if the noise gets louder turning right then the left front wheel bearing is the problem, the same for turning left, the right front bearing would be the problem. If the noise stays the same and changing on acceleration or deceleration the problem may be more serious, possible a final drive issue like a bad pinion bearing ring and pinion gears.

it is a twin overhead cam and twin carburetors. different heads, intake manifold and carburetor. Engne tightening torques should be the same as an 18 rengine
