Just bought my 94 celica yesterday watched this and your mishimoto video love the content and how easily and fluid you explain things you don’t waste time or best around the bush definitely earned my sub
Hi Net. Your videos are always well made and, moreover, they are always very useful. I have not done this work yet, but I need to do it soon. Also, I will replace thermostat. From what I have seen, the elements are very similar to those of my 94 ST202 with 3SGE engine. Thank you.
Hi there. Thank you for the compliments! 😊 I'm happy to hear these videos are helpful. Yes, your BEAMS engine should be very similar to my 5S. Perhaps you already know, but here are a few important tips for changing your thermostat: Make sure to get a thermostat with the same temperature rating as factory spec for your engine & also make sure you install the thermostat facing the proper direction. Good luck and thank you for watching the channel. 😀🔧
@@NetsGarage Hi Net.it is not Beams, I would like to, but in my country there are almost none, and few GT4. Mine is regular 3SGE with 129kw. Anyway, a great sports car. I have OEM thermostat checked, and temperature setpoint is 82ºC. I bought new one with new gasket. Thanks for your tips and and continue with your unbeatable Celica Gn6 videos. Best regards
On the 94 5s the block drain plug is towards the drivers side, and it’s one big 14mm BOLT. It’s in such a weird crammed position it took me a min to reach it. Anyways Just took it off and barely anything came out, just a lil leak😅 is that normal? Update: put back the drain plug 1/5 of the way, took it out to make sure I’m not cross-threading, and then boom: a whole bunch of coolant spilling all over me. Good thing I still had my bucket right next to me. Putting the drain plug back, however, was the hardest part. Took me 30-40 mins to get this single bolt in there.
Hi! Thanks for the update, it's wild that coolant came out after a while. I'm wondering if your engine cooled off and moved the coolant about the system, or maybe something was blocking it? Bizarre. Anyway, the good news is you were able to drain the back of the block. :) And yes, that bolt is SOOOOO hard to get to. Such a PITA. Good luck with flushing your system. I hope your car is running smoothly.
I have an old 94 GT standard I'm trying to revive. It went down with a radiator leak, and now has mixed coolant in it because previous owner used wrong coolant, or at least not ideal coolant. Anyway, I have the new radiator, and I want to install it. But I want to double or triple clean out the coolant. I want none of the old coolant left when I install the new radiator and and add new coolant. Do you have any tips that might help me out? TIA...
Hi Celica friend! You can always flush the system several times, with the old radiator, before installing the new one. That way any goop you break up doesn’t end up in your new radiator. You can also watch the color change each time you do a flush to see it get clearer. That way you’ll be able to monitor how clean things are getting. Also, don’t forget to drain the back of the block. It’s a little hard to get to but totally worth it. I did include draining the back of the block in this video. Good luck, and thanks for supporting the channel. 😀🔧
Hi Phia. If it makes ya feel any better, I had trouble finding the plug myself! I don't have any additional footage of it, I hardly got the camera in there to film it in the first place. The best way I can describe getting to it would to be to start from the pass side axel area, car was on stands and I was laying on the ground. Then with a flash light you wanna look way up and to the left of the back of the block (facing towards the front of the car). If you don't see it, you can always skip this step and it won't be the end of the world. Good luck! *Also - and I haven't been able to confirm this yet - but I'm wondering if that coolant drain plug was added to later versions of this engine.
@@NetsGarage Thanks. I looked everywhere but didn't see one. Maybe the GT doesn't have one. You know if the rear windshield nozzle has a separate pump? My rear nozzle stopped working and I couldn't hear anything when I pushed for fluid. oh boy. thanks again.
The TRD cap was a gift, isn't it pretty?! I love it. 🤩 Anyway, I'm pretty sure it was purchased on Ebay, special order, because the seller didn't offer it with the appropriate psi cap pressure rating for the Celica.
the massive amount of care taken to produce this video is apparent in the final product. very well done. 👍
Thank you!! 😊
I gotta agree with Mr. Newby on this one. Excellent!!
Awe! Thanks! ☺️
What a mint 6GC!
Thank you! I've tried to take good care of her over the years.
Thank you for teaching me how to do my first coolant flush 👍🏽
Yay! I love this! You’re so welcome. 😀
Thank you so much, spent so long looking for videos on how to find the engine block drain it was driving me crazy!
So glad I could help! It really is a crazy hard spot to get to. Happy you found it. 😀

Hi! 👋🏻 Welcome to the Celica Family! Thanks for your kind words. 😊 I’m glad you’re enjoying my content, I’m happy you’re here. 🔧
Hey Net thanks for the tutorial here. I just bought a 99 celica, and i need to change the radiator on it, so this has been exactly what i needed!
Hi! This makes me so happy. I’m glad it was helpful. Welcome to the Celica family. 😊
Well done, what a great video.
Beautifully explained filmed and edited.
I appreciate you sayin' that! Thank you so much! 😊
Thankyou for sharing ❤ love my Toyota Celica 1995 manual 👍🏼. From new Zealand 🌏.
Thanks for saying hi! 👋🏻 And thanks for watching. These cars are absolutely the best, especially the manuals! 😉
Perfect video and nice car! I found yout channel looking for coolant replacement for my Celica 5th gen but your video helps me too much ;)
Thank you, thank you! 😊 I’m so glad this video was helpful for you, Celica friend.
yea. loved the video. I have the same car and have no clue. So please make a million of these.
Yay, so glad you enjoyed this video! Thank you for the feedback! There are several more videos in the works. Stay tuned.
This was very helpful. I have a 97 Camry but share the same 5S-FE motor. All the best to you
Yay. Thank you! 😊 I’m so happy this was helpful. 🔧
Great video! If you see LOTS of bubbles (like it is boiling over) you more than likely have a blown head gasket.
Thanks! Yeah, I'm keeping my eye on it. No chocolate milk mixture yet. 🤞🏻🙂
Super helpful, thanks! I didn't know about the second drain plug, good to know.
Happy to help! 😀
Very very cool. I love the hose idea for the drain plug. Try not to lose that 10 mm lol
Thank you! I definitely got creative with that drain hose, glad you enjoyed that. OMG, the 10mm is a sneaky socket, always hiding in plain sight! HA!
Such a nice car 😮💨, this vid helped a lot!
Thank you! I’m so glad it was helpful. 😊

I have the 7afe engine do i do the same process or is it different because its not the same engine ?
You can do the same process.

@@phiayang9449 Did you manage to find the engine drain plug? I'm having the same problem now with the 94' GT
@@georgeamorrortu8295 I don't remembered where but I did.sorry, sold the car.
Where did you get the intake kit?
It's an Injen intake, you can find them at Injen.com or on eBay.
Where'd you get that trd cap?
The TRD cap was a gift, isn't it pretty?! I love it. 🤩

@@NetsGarageYes, it looks amazing! I've been looking for a trd cap, but I might just have to deal with a mishimoto cap in the future
Jacking up the car in slippers was so sketchy. Wouldn't want to hurt those toes.
Yes, I agree, not recommended as best safety practices. I was being a little rebel that day, and I really shouldn’t do that. 😬
