Toyota was willing to work with me. I sold my 98 for parts back before the buyback.

Once the buyback was announced I was so upset I didn't revisit the issue for 2 years. But eventually I got in...

Maybe retard the timing? I have found best MPG's with timing a bit advanced from factory which causes intermittent high idle and a bit of popping. But its getting 22 hwy so Its worth it.

Not sure what they think. They were kind of assholes though - typically they're nice.

Fluid is good.

I know that its the switch under the dash, I just have to close it! I guess I could stop being lazy and just look harder but if anyone knows where it's located I'd appreciate that.
