Hello from Maine, USA.

I am the owner of a fixer upper 1995 Toyota Celica GT convertible smile.gif

Unfortunately I'm not a mechanic. I'm a computer guy.

I am trying to get everything together for my mechanic to fix it up.

The top can open, but not close, I heard this can be caused by low fluid in the hydraulic pump.

I saw a video about it here (for a Mustang) https://youtu.be/Ym6Ec23nu6M

My questions are :

1. What fluid should I get ?

2. Are there any instructions I can show to my mechanic other than that video ? Or does the video basically approximate my same setup ?

Thanks smile.gif
Craig

the convertible top?

does not use any hydraulic fluid.

this is what you need to read.....

probably its working with one motor, and closing the top requires both, since is heavier.
