How do you know if the transmission went out in 1990 Toyota Celica?

Standard or automatic? Standards are fairly bullet proof. Just doesn't move or go in gear? Probably the clutch disc is either worn out or the face of the disc blew off. Automatic. Check to see if the transmission fluid smells and appears burnt. Is it full if not burnt? Look to see if the shifter is connected and working at the transmission. Should be able to see the shift arm on top of the transmission.

THIS means there is a fault and in 9 out of 10 cases it is a faulty crank shaft sensor as i have just replaced one the cost is about £9 and a easy fix it is located next to the oil sump

Where is the neutral safety switch on 1988 reliant automatic transmission?

This switch is located on the very front of the transmission. To see it you'll need to get underneath the car, look right behind the rad support panel. On my car there is a metal cover or plate, limiting access to it. This cover appears easy to remove ie; some bolts.


What does it mean if smoke appears when accelerating stops for a while and then suddenly blows a great amount then transmission starts to slip but it is not overheating and the oil appears OK?

probably sucking transmission fluid through a broken diaphragm on transmission modulator. look for a vaccuum hose going from carburetor or throttle body area down to an external pod like device mounted on the transmission.
