hi.

i just bought a 1990 celica 2.2l twin cam. it doesnt have a manual, can the be downloaded for free anywhere? i will be in need of one.

also, the spark plug leads on culinders 1 and 3 are coming off. i am hopeful that it is just a matter of changing the leads but want to check the engine pressure. how do i do this?

please feel free to email me with some help!

The leads are probably old and have come loose or they could have blown up in size due to oil exposure...

To compression test, you'll need to remove all the spark plugs, leads, connect the compression tester and crank the engine over 7 times and check the pressure reading...

If it's low, squirt a little oil into the cylinder and recheck it... If the pressure rises, rings are worn...
