FUEL WARNING MESSAGE
Geoff, Are you able to let me know how far / high you had to get your car into the air to successfully drop the tank? I guess my next step will depend on that distance. Hope everything goes well for you when you are tackling it. Thanks -

toyota 700
Your starting problem could be engine timing .I had a no start problem and found that the engine had been apart and timed wrongly as there are2 marks on the internal gears so be carefull. Oil filters that will fit U10 are R2206P old ones but still available. Brake parts from local suppliers no problem and note that early UP10 had factory problems with the fuel pump not giving up enough fuel when engine under load. -

'Please check the SD card' - Does anyone have the SD card files?
Hi team, I have ran into the same issue. Can I confirm where I should be placing these files within the SD folders? I can see a few .DAT format files however the name of the files doesn't exactly match what is currently on there. (e.g. this google drive folder contains EB, RG, SS & MM where as the folder on my SD has DAT files named ascbin, dtv_area, EMAP, MAPINFO... any ideas? Please note this is a 2010 Toyota Prius Synergy, industry model code DAA-ZVW30. Any help you can offer would be amazing! EDIT: I'm based in New Zealand if this affects filenames etc, which I assume it likely will. -

Adding cruise control to a 2008 Ascent Hatch
Hi Tony, You will need to make your own harness, with wire and corrugated tubing, you can buy at any auto shop. If there isn't a published wiring diagram, with colours, then I suggest you work out a colour scheme, so when you have the end of your harness you know which wire is which. As to the clutch switch, I've fitted a standard micro switch, on a home made bracket. The switch is wired in the normally open connection, as it is operated when the clutch is up. Note, the attached article is for my MGB brake switch replacement, but it will give you an idea about how to go about it. As to connecting to the ECU, if you do need to do it you only need to connect to the speed wire. If you have a tacho, then you could tap into the sense wire to it, using a quick splice connector, as shown, below. They are closed with a pair of pliers. Note that they come in different sizes, depending on the wire size. Herb Saga19 Brake switch.pdf -

Adding cruise control to a 2008 Ascent Hatch
I know there is a heap of discussion out there on this topic but has anyone successfully added cruise when the wiring harness doesn't support it? I was a hoping to just buy the clock spring and cruise stalk and fit it, but mines a manual and there is no wiring to connect the clutch switch to. I've read about people running wiring to the ECU, but there weren't any clear guides for this that i could find. How do you actually tap into the ECU connector because the pictures I've seen look like it wouldn't be easy to add anything to it? I gave up after seeing there was no clutch switch cabling to wire up to so I don't even know if the necessary cabling is between the clock spring and the ECU. Has anyone done this mod on a car that isn't pre-wired for it? -

Handbrake gap in coonsole
Just purchased a 2008 Corolla hatch. As shown in the photo, the rubber shroud attached to the handbrake sags down and leaves a big gap for things to potentially fall down in there. I can't figure out why its like that. Nothing seems to be broken - is there something missing from there? -
