<br />
I wanted to start a discussion around email management—something we all deal with daily but often overlook when it comes to efficiency and organization. Whether you&#039;re handling personal communication or professional tasks, keeping your inbox structured can save a lot of time and reduce stress.<br />
<br />
One useful strategy is creating folders, filters, and labels to automatically sort incoming messages. This helps prioritize important emails and keeps clutter out of your main inbox....<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
I’m looking for a detailed workshop repair manual for my vehicle. Ideally, it should cover step-by-step instructions, wiring diagrams, troubleshooting tips, and maintenance schedules. I’ve tried a few generic manuals, but they often lack depth or clarity. <br />
<br />
I’m particularly interested in something easy to follow for both routine maintenance and more complex repairs. <br />
<br />
Do any of you have recommendations for manuals that are accurate, up-to-date, and practical for hands-on work?...<br />

I can start it by pouring some gas into the carb, and it will idle nicely, but when I go to drive, and return to idle, it shuts off.  Am able to restart sometimes but than same problem. Again, easy to start and idle by adding fuel into the carb.<br />

Has a new fuel filter. I tried spraying it down once with carb cleaner on both inside and out.<br />

 Hello Everyone<br />
I hope all is well considering the current position we are all in.  I have recently purchased a 1987 2wd Toyota Pickup, 5 speed, 2.5 with a 126,000 miles.  I am looking to have some fun with the rebuild.  I am not a mechanic and would rate my mechanic skills as zero on a 1-10 scale.  However, I do enjoy the process of building something from nothing and the close knit comradery of the auto restoration community and even more the Mini Truck and...<br />

It&#039;s been a while since I&#039;ve been on the site. Update.. I moved from California to Texas for a few years then to Chicago over the past several years. I haven&#039;t used my 84 and 86 for a while, but starting up again.. I was wondering if anyone has any article or information regarding the decoding of our pick up trucks?
