Wheel alignment for Corolla AE92(2?)?

Hi all

I'm new at this excellent forum, and I have a question about a car I recently bought. I bought a 91 mod AE92(2?) SR5, and are experiencing difficulties adjusting the wheel alignment correctly. The car was imported from Canada in 1997 to Norway, and has never been sold in Norway. So the dealer/workshop has trouble finding the correct settings for the wheel alignment,does anyone know what the correct settings are or where I can find the data/settings for my car ? I will be very greatfull if someone can answer this

I believe you have a 4AF (carbureted) motor. If you want the complete copy of the page, I can scan it and send it to you via email if you want.

ADJUSTMENT STANDARDS
FRONT:
Toe-In : 1mm + 1mm (0.04in + 0.04in)
Camber : -10' + 45'
Left - Right Error - 30' or less
Caster: 1°30' + 45'


REAR:
Toe-In: 4mm + 1mm (0.16in + 0.04in)
Camber: -41' + 45'
Left- Right Error - 30' or less

Fantastic, you are my new best friend right now It's a 4A-FE, standard 1.6 litre, 105hp, 16 valve engine. Is the Adjustment standards for my 2 door model different from a 4 door saloon model or a 5 door stationwagon model ? It would be absolutely exellent if you can scan the complete page and email it to me I can't thank you enough, thank you so much !! Now I can fix it before I put my snowtires on the car

Can I ask you one more thing since you clearly know your stuff, do you know if there are some website I can download a good instruction book for my car.

Again, thank you so much. You have made my weekend perfect, I'm just so relieved now

My email adress is : kisete@gmail.com

Wish you a very nice weekend

91 isnt that considered like a kouki model? so it should be EFi isnt it? a 4afe... but yeah from my understanding the sr5 is very similar to the 4door and wagon not the alltrac though.. they all use the same drive train in a way and same motor as well... i mean you can use all sort of stuff in it...

I'll try to email it to you by tonight. If not, next day.

I'm not sure of any websites that would provide online manuals. Primarily because of copyrights (which is why I can email the copy of the page and not post them here).

All the AE92's pretty much share the same everything. Except the body style..... drivetrain, the motor, suspension should be pretty much the same or close.

Sorry, what is a kouki model? On the engine it's printed 4A-FE, and that's a standard 1.6L Toyota engine as far as I know but maybe that's the same as EFi I'm not quite sure

I don't think it's an injection engine, but I'm not sure. I don't have a proper manual, and the registration sheet doesn't contain anything but the most important information about the car. But it's not very important either
