  1. will try seafoam, once started, and once started will use all the time. No sittin'around for Toy or me.
  2. yes, did that. I have just recieved a beautifully rebuilt carb from Nat'l Carburetors in Florida. My neighbors son charged me $200.00 just to take off and put on. Said he was gonna charge me $300! Well, carb on now, and no go. Started briefly twice, gave out. Had tune up, but plugs fouled. Now he says may be hoses. Forget him, what to do?
  3. bob, my toy is white and kinda tan, like the background color of this website, and has side door.
  4. bob,

    Thank you for reply.

    So relieved to know I am not alone.

    I originally took toy to AAMCO.

    Big Mistake.

    They charged me $200 for extensive 2 hour diagnostic, and $440 to replace fuel pump and fuel lines.Towed it there and had to tow it home. ouch. They said they could not change alternator, tune up, etc. That's a diagnosis?

    lesson learned.

  5. Hello all, Randy here, from West Sacramento California. I am proud owner of 1978 Toyota dolphin. I bought this rig for $2500 four years ago.. Went from Sacramento to San Diego and back, when I first bought it. Ran beautiful, no problem. Why ask why, but I let it sit for about three years. Yes problems. The toy will start,but not stay started. Replaced fuel pump and fuel lines. Replaced alternator. Recharged battery. Tune up, plugs, distributor, air filters. Replaced oil and filters. Cleaned fuel lines. Still won't stay started. floods easily. Please, what now? vacuums, diaphram, carburetor? be gentle, newbie and have to pay others for repair. do not want to lose but a grand spent already. Thank You.
  6. Hello all, Newbie here. I own a 1978 toyota Dolphin 22RE 4 cylinder with single rear axle. Problem is my entrance step has been punched out, from a late night visit by a #400 'friend ' one evening. How to rebuild or replace. Was told to put braces and wooden box in. Any ideas, step by step please, newbie, newbie. Thank you all and am glad and relieved to have a forum availiable. Randy West sacramento Ca.
