Toyota Repair: 1986, toyota corolla hatchback


Question
HI,
VEHICLE HAS BEEN IDLE FOR A FEW YEARS, ENGINE STARTS WHEN FUEL FED DOWN CARBY.  NO FUEL COMING OUT FROM INTAKE LINE TO CARBY.
DOES IT HAVE A MECHANICAL FUEL PUMP OR ELECTRICAL? WHERE IS IT PUMP AND FILTERS LOCATED, PLEASE HELP.

Answer
Hello, does the engine have a carburetor or is it fuel injected? Since you are in Australia it could be either, if fuel injected the pump is in the fuel tank and is electrical, if carbureted
it has a mechanical pump on the cylinder head, follow the hoses from the carb and it should lead you to the fuel pump mounted on the side of the cylinder head.
