Honda No Start? Possible Main Relay


The first of the “Quick Tips”. I think I’m going to throw one of these in from time to time to keep things lively. So if you have a Honda or Acura that is not starting DUE TO LOSS OF FUEL PRESSURE this is a good place to start. You may be able to repair the main relay normally found under the dash on the drivers side. If this helps great remember me fondly and pass my name along because I just saved you at the very least about $80, at the most $200. I will be upgrading my website very soon, in fact I will post a video when it is up. Cool new things on the horizon for ETCG and YOU the viewer. So if you want take a look at the old site because it’s days are numbered. www.ericthecarguy.com Till next time Be Safe and Stay Dirty. Oh yea, and have fun too. ETCG

Toyota Gets Its Start In 1957 with Toyopet


By Casey Williams

Toyota has been taking a beating in the press during the last couple of months. Some of it, painfully, is deserved. However, much of it is just piling on by people who don’t really understand what they’re talking about. Anybody who knows Toyota is sure the company will fix its issues quickly.

This is a company that began selling cars in the U.S. during 1957 with the Toyopet. By the end of 1958, Toyota had only sold 287 vehicles ? far less than the 2.5 million cars and trucks it would be selling annually by the end of the 2000s. The car was built on a heavy-duty truck frame that was perfect for Japan, but anchored the underpowered car, standard with a 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine, with too much weight for American freeways. Toyota withdrew the Toyopet in 1960, leaving dealers with only the Tiara sedan and Land Cruiser SUV to sell.

In Japan, the company re-doubled its efforts to design and engineer a car for American tastes. In 1965, the Corona was introduced. It was followed by the Corolla, the best-selling nameplate of all time, in 1968. By 1975, Toyota was the best-selling import brand, displacing the lovable Volkswagen. The automaker surpassed 1 million vehicles per year in the U.S. during 1986. Three years later, Lexus was established and forever changed the domestic luxury market. In 1997, the Toyota Camry became the best-selling car in America, an honor it has maintained almost every year since.

Scion was launched in 2003 to introduce Gen-Y to a new generation of affordable Toyota compacts. At the other end of the range, Lexus introduced the 600h L, a long-wheelbase hybrid luxury sedan that was the brand’s first model to top $100,000. Toyota had clearly come a very long way in the previous half-century.

Toyota is not the first automaker to have momentary setbacks, and it won’t be the last. Audi had its own run-in with “unintended acceleration” that was eventually proven to be false. We don’t know what the whole story is yet, but we can be sure that Toyota will fix whatever it is and go on to many more decades of success in the U.S. We barely remember the Toyopet now. That says a lot about Toyota’s ability to overcome adversity and amaze us all.
