1991 Toyota MasterAce Surf 2.0 turbo diesel
Summary:
Good budget MPV alternative
Faults:
Bought with an electrical fault as the starter was sticking. Sourced a second hand unit and replaced battery terminals.
Middle sliding door roller worn out, home made replacement done.
Power steering drive belt has recently become loose.
General Comments:
Very reliable 2.0 turbo diesel engine bolted to a usable automatic box with plenty of gears plus overdrive. Not a race winner, but a reliable plodder averaging around 40mpg on runs.
Large comfy cabin with good sized seats, good quality carpets and curtains fitted. Mine has the 6 sunroofs, 2 being removable.
Steering van like, and suspension sloppy and bouncy under load.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have the same problem on over heating of the engine. Could any one advise on where to buy a work shop manual for Master Ace Surf or who to contact for this problem.
Thank you.
