Toyota sold the 1981 Corona as a Base and an LE, in sedan, wagon and hatchback bodies, with either an automatic or a standard transmission behind the 2.4L four (22R). This service and repair manual is tied to that exact year and build list, so the specifications are the ones Toyota published for this car rather than figures carried over from an adjacent model year.
