I am a little confused. Maybe it's because I am using a Chilton's manual. My 1993 Impreza has labels under the hood saying the motor is a 1.8 liter engine (EJ18). I am working on the timing belt section. It has just one long 211 tooth timing belt. Chiltons manual shows the 1.8 engine with two belts and the 2.2 looks just like my motor with one belt. Is the manual wrong, or is it possible somebody put another engine in?

I finally went to a garage and they could not get it off either using there most powerfull impact wrench. They suggested I cut it off. I went home and first drilled holes on opposite ends of the nut then finished one side with a carbide dremel tip. Smaked it with a chisel and it came off. At least I felt good that I was trying to take it off origanally as if it was a right hand thread, which it was. Now I am going to finish the job. Thanks All!!!

I have the car tires on the ground and I am turning lefty loosy (counter clock wise). Also a note I did un-peen the castle nut part that was bent in to prevent it loosening out. I also just broke my Craftsman tee bar using the six foot pipe. I think I will go to a garage and give them twenty bucks to loosen it for me.

I do not have an impact wrench. I am trying to take off the right front axel nut. I just had a six foot black pipe on my tee bar and it still will not budge. I also heated the nut with a mapp gas torch. Am I wrong in presuming this is a regular right hand thread on the axel nut. If so I would like to kill the guy that over tightened the nut. I am scared the tee bar will snap.

I am attempting to replace the front right axel on my 93 Impreza. The manual recommends using a puller and an installer for the removing and pressing on the hub. I was looking for the tools on line. What is the tread at the end? I found a kit for $95 that has an installer for a 20mmX1.5 thread and a 22mmX1.5 thread. There was another site that has a kit #AST7837 for $45 and has two installers but does not tell what size they are. Any help would be apreciated
