About 1991 Toyota Celica Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, you also want to think about a couple of other things when getting new Toyota Celica tires like which tire brands you like most and where you drive. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Many drivers who live in states that experience all four seasons choose to purchase two sets of tires: one set for winter, one set for summer. Other drivers buy one set of all-season tires instead. That way they don't have to return to the tire shop and their vehicle is always ready for sun, rain, and light snow!

Next, consider your driving style. If you're a big off-roading fan who forges paths where others can't, you have very different needs than a long-distance commuter who sticks to the highway. Browse Toyota Celica tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

Questions About 1991 Toyota Celica Tires

  • Is there an easy way to check Toyota tire tread depth? Stay on top of your tire tread depth to help avoid a dangerous drive. You can check tread depth with a penny. Hold the penny so that Abraham Lincoln is facing you, then place your penny into a tread groove upside down. If you can see the top of Abe’s head, your tread is shallow and it might be time for new Toyota Celica tires. Grab a penny.

1991 Toyota Celica Oil Change Questions

  • What does it mean if my Toyota Celica oil light comes on?  If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Toyota Celica oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Can I change my Toyota oil on my own?  First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also helps your car perform down the road.

1991 Toyota Celica Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • What happens if my Toyota Celica spark plugs fail? When it’s time to replace the spark plugs, don’t delay. These small (but vital!) parts provide the electric spark that your car needs in order to start, and old spark plugs can prevent your car from starting at all. Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Toyota Celica mean? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Toyota Celica. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • How often should I clean my Toyota Celica fuel injectors? There is no hard and fast rule on how often fuel injectors should be cleaned, and it can vary based on driving habits and fuel type. Some manufacturers may suggest including a fuel system cleaning in your regular maintenance schedule. Or you may need to clean your fuel injectors as needed if you notice signs of a fuel system problem.

Suspension Service & Repair for 1991 Toyota Celica

When you first bought your 1991 Toyota Celica, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Celica bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1991 Toyota Celica in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work.

1991 Toyota Celica Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Why does my Toyota Celica bounce so much?  Excessive bouncing in your Toyota Celica might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Celica's nose dive down when I hit the brakes?  As you brake, the forward momentum of your Celica combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Toyota's suspension?  Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.

Convenient & Local 1991 Toyota Celica A/C Service

Our technicians will work to solve your 1991 Toyota Celica A/C problems to the best of their ability. During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1991 Toyota Celica A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test.

Let's say we repair your 1991 Toyota Celica A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Toyota's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant.

Questions About 1991 Toyota Celica A/C Systems

  • What’s making my Celica A/C put out warm air?  An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak?  A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Celica's A/C system.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Celica’s A/C to work?  A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Celica is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.

1991 Toyota Celica Transmission Service

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Celica’s performance. Toyota Celica transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you ignore Toyota Celica transmission issues you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Celica at all. Our technicians know how to service your 1991 Celica up to Toyota-recommended standards. If you think there’s something wrong with your Celica’s transmission, schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care to help keep your engine running at peak performance.

Questions About 1991 Toyota Celica’s Transmission

  • How often does my Celica transmission fluid need to be checked?  Maintaining your Toyota Celica transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Toyota. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Toyota Celica leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Toyota Celica can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Celica ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Is it okay to drive a Celica with a transmission fluid leak?  It’s not advisable to drive your Celica if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.

Vehicle Inspection for 1991 Toyota Celica

Every service performed at Firestone Complete Auto Care includes a multi-point Courtesy Check.

After we’ve inspected your Toyota Celica’s battery, we’ll visually inspect your lights, windshield wipers, filters, hoses, alignment, tires, fluid levels, and belts.

  • What's the ideal timing for a full vehicle inspection on my Toyota Celica?  It’s generally a good idea to get a complete vehicle inspection for your Toyota Celica before a road trip and/or when something strange occurs and you are unable to find the cause. Signs something is up include dashboard lights illuminating, odd noises coming from the engine, and your steering feeling loose or tight.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 1991 Toyota Celica is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come.

Questions About Toyota Celica Radiators

  • What does an illuminated coolant temperature light mean for my Toyota?  Your engine might be about to overheat. If your low coolant light is on, pull over in a safe area and wait for your engine temperature to go down. Once it’s safe to do so, bring your car to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care to have the coolant system inspected.
  • My Celica overheated! What can cause that?  Low coolant, a damaged cooling fan, a faulty water pump, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a clogged radiator could all cause your Toyota Celica engine to overheat.
  • What is making my Celica radiator sound like it’s boiling or rumbling? If your radiator sounds like it's boiling or rumbling, you could have air pockets in the cooling system of your Celica. You might also have a damaged radiator cap (super easy to fix!) or a clogged radiator.
