1993 Toyota Previa Sports van RARE 5 Speed Manual LOW 91K

"You are looking at a Toyota Previa that has been well kept and maintained; it's an all around great looking vehicle.
This is a-never-smoked-in beauty that looks and smells great. The car was garage kept. Judging from the miles and the condition of the car - most of its miles were driven on the highway.
The cars exterior is white that has a deep sparkling shine to it. The cars exterior is in great condition.
The engine sounds, runs and feels smooth and provides abundant power. It's a very reliable and economical engine! The transmission shifts well with no skips on shifts and smooth.
AC is ice cold. The van is equipped with an option dual AC!
The interior is spotless and shows very little wear (the pictures clearly show the interior is in great condition). All seats lean all the way back to the rear, so you can actually sleep rather comfortably in the car!"

Air Flow Meter or map sensor system?

The 2tz-fe with an AFM (Air Flow Meter) has got an air box similar to this one, this picture is from an early 2tz-fe.
Those with a map sensor don't have a mass air flow sensor connector to the air filter box.

On this car there is a IAT ( Intake Air Temperature Sensor ) instead of a Mass Air Flow meter. The IAT monitors the temperature of the air entering the engine. The engine computer (ECU) needs this information to estimate air density so it can balance air air/fuel mixture.

Early Toyota Previa with Air Flow Meter on top of intake box.

IAT sensor on top of plastic intake.

The IAT is basicly a thermoresistor. Resistance changes according to temperature. Measured in Ohm. When heated up it probably will reduce its resistance.

Close up on IAT ( Intake Air Temperature Sensor )? Colder air is more densed than warmer air and the fuel mixture is adjusted accordingly.

This connection goes to the ABS. Will find another one on the other side.

Grinding down rust and applying linseed oil

I've made a new video of grinding down rust and applying linseed oil.

Content:
Right side rocker panel, grinded down rust, showing rust protection , before adding it, ( cable channel )
Also removed rubber gasket for rocker panel, looking down and identifying rust
Linseed oil applied, removed door contact
Spraying boiled linseed oil, its usally not boiled as it sounds, instead metallic solvents are added to the raw oil that cause it to dry faster.  It has no UV light protection.

Previa was also a favourite car of the late Michael Jackson. He always rented this baby during his world tour. Source Internet commentator jacksonatic, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHP9KSKjQis
