No sweat,but I only click on about 5% of the posts out there these days. Pat,I think I've held your tools hostage long enough.Sorry about that.I'll get them going either later this week or early next week. Cheers

Oh boy,now I want to go digging and fine what I have from my youth as a Subathusiast. That sure looks like PA in the background.When are you coming back?

Yup,sorry about that......HEATER CORE. The A/C would have been another malady. I got all excited because I also fixed the A/C yesterday.Dang near peed the passenger side floor .........again.

Sorry Pat,I had no idea and my crystal ball is on the blink.

OK,you've just gotten a set off absolutely known to be working switches and relay.You go to install them,still no power windows on your EA82 car. Well,if you're like me and have a car that once pee peed it's coolant all over the passenger side front floor from a rupture in the ***heater core*** then you might want to lift the carpet and check for shorted/coroded wires. I knew I'd find the problem in the wires but it took getting Wagon78 involved to make me lift that carpet today and finally get my power windows going.Today,like much of the last two weeks here,was something like 99 degrees and probably near 95% humidity.The A/C was NOT working either,but I fixed that with a good tensioner pulley from Subafreak. Hats off to both those guys.Freak is a good quick mechanic with a great work ethic.Turn around and he's gotten three more things done.'78 is the guy for diagnostics on the electrical side.I knew once I presented my problem to him I'd have that problem solved in no time. GOING HOME IN AN AIR CONDITIONED CAR FOR WAS SOOOOOOOOOO FREAKIN' AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I used the power windows to hold my head out and scream at the yuppies heading back from the Cape,so my repairs were all timely,indeed.

Wurst carries them,that's who I got mine from. Expensive,yes,but excellent.You'll not want a heli-coil again for exhaust studs,etc. where you may have to remove the stud/bolt in the future for repairs,etc.. Cost was borderline "no friggin way",I think I paid like $63 for a set plus shipping.Comes with a drill bit,tap,chamfer bit,insert tool and I think 5 inserts when you order the size for exhaust studs. Pay more,but you get the best results.My experienced opinion.

Oh gosh,another guy named Skip...welcome! Enjoy the swim. Paul

I am planning on whipping up a nice one for my '73 coupe.Other than dreaming I'm as curious as you are to see some gen I tower bracing.

Looking at the last weekend this month,just before school goes back to session.

Late 80's SPFI is good enough for basic driving and simple,simple,simple!!!!! My '89 touring wagon is our family truck.It just won't die,much like the Subarus of the 70's when things were simple,simple,simple......

Hal's is a great place.I can't say I've sent them much money at all but their reputation is up and down the east coast,and then some.Long time Subaru people.

Wow,you guys are going to be RIGHT near my friend's house just of Mt.Zion rd. Balenger Park is on Rt.351,right? Tim,I'll give you a call next weekend sometime,probably later in the day so mabe you'll be off work.

Brad,you bailed out on the hybrid? Got trailer pics?

My son wants to hit the Barrens to see if we can snag one of those lizards we saw last year.I'll be going for an overnight camping stay in the Batso camping area. I'll have to check the calender but for sure we'll be doing an entire Saturday of trail driving and if there's company along we'll do some water action too. Who'd be up for a run either this weekend(doubtful,but still being considered),or the weekends of Aug. 27/28th? Google search Pine Barrens and check it out if you're interested.I'll post links and add some info later.Just getting the twigs in the pit.I'll torch the big logs later.Ciao.

Nah,wish I could but just too much to do to get my place on the market and start moving our home items into storage. I'll be there next Thursday night but late,very late.Friday and Saturday will be the days to get together. Still got my cell phone number?Send me a number to reach you at if you don't mind.

Things are now not as solid for me.My son really wants to hit the Pine Barrens. Might be able to swing both.

mmmmmm I could go for one of those right now! Cool,but I'll be down next weekend.Sorry I won't be able to make it this weekend.I had the wrong date before.Have a blast guys!!! Tim,I'll be working on my buddy's house but can probably make time to swing by and meet up.That Brat is now in New Hampshire.No hard feelings on my end. Cheers!

I think the EA82 filters work. The original SOA part number was 880874110 but I'm sure that was updated.

Hey man,you gonna let me in if I'n in town?? I'll be down there on Basford Rd. helping my buddy on his house,etc. this weekend I think.

Thanks! From my searching Goodyear's site I couldn't find anything with the woven wrapping.I'll keep checking.

A nice little meet you had there.Nice representation from the pre-Impreza era.Right on!!

Gosh I wish I could shrink down to the size of a mouse and get into the box with the '79 shifter I have. Free bump.... Of course,if you came up here on a weekend we could tear through the place.

Thread moved to Older Gen. Forum-for pre-vintage Loyale,etc...

Coffee's on,wake up.... I actually need to do some hose replacement REALLY soon,if you have any knowledge of PRE BENT,PRE SHAPED,PRE FORMED,or whatever you want to call them,hoses for our 70's Subarus please let me know ASAP. All I would really need is the proper bend/shape,regardless of vintage appearance. I'm trying to avoid getting basic hose stock and having hot spots from a kink.

Nope,wasn't me,sorry.
