I just bought a 1996 tercel and the check engine light came on and stayed on. My friend is studying to be an ASE mechanic and he hooked his Solus Pro, which is a sophisticated car computer, and he came up with the same code, O2 sensor. After running a complete test he reset the codes to 0. I haven't had the check engine light come on since. My friend said that if it does come on again we will run a deeper scan and a road test. It has been two weeks so far.
the last time i checked it was what connected the pistons together and made it run
It is located on the engine block on the opposite side of the exhaust manifold to the right of the starter unit.
did you replaced spark plug also distributor cap and rotor???
Did you check your starter?
For the 1993 Toyota Tercel, the O2 sensor has three different wire colors. These colors are: black, blue, and white.

Hey Ben==Have the engine tuned up and have the motor and trans supports checked. GoodluckJoe
Well, honey, the coolant temperature sensor on a 1995 Toyota Tercel is usually located near the thermostat housing or on the cylinder head. To replace it, first, make sure the engine is cool, then disconnect the electrical connector, unscrew the sensor using a wrench, apply some thread sealant on the new sensor, and install it in the same location. Don't forget to reconnect the electrical connector and refill the coolant if needed. Good luck, darling!

Get it used from a junk yard, or any other Toyota engine with an identical 8th digit in VIN.
The last year the awsome Toyota Tercel was in production was 1999......(sad face) It was replaced by the ugly Echo....blech!!
