my high beams are causing me nightmares
john in KY replied to Mariposa's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If this was an XT or XT6 the headlight relay is located behind the fuse panel. I suspect it is in the same location for your Loyale. Look for something that looks like a small cube. The XT has 4 or 5 relays in that location and your Loyale probably has the same amount. Can't recall which is the headlight relay. -

May not be brake related at all. Could be a wheel bearing.

Had a 64 when I was a teenager. Truly a terrible car. Be warned that because of the rear suspension design, this car can kill you if you take a curve too fast. I still have a vivid memory the first time in a curve the rear wheels left the road. -
Looks to me like you left out one wire in the new harness.

I don't understand your ratios but I ran for years a turbo wagon with 14 pounds of boost using a Mopar RRFPR. Seem to call the Mopar regulator started at 45 pounds and do recall the ratio was 1:1.5. So at full boost the fuel pressure was at 66 pounds. Still have the Mopar boost guage and a new EGT guage I never got around to installing. Also have 6 of the larger 240Z injectors around here somewhere. A 10:1 ratio means to me 10 pounds of boost will increase the fuel pressure by one pound.

92 loyale starting issues?
john in KY replied to 92justy's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Probably is the timing belt. Remove distributor cap and see if the rotor turns when the engine is cranked. -
Can't think of any connection between a bouncing tach and a bad AFM but your description of "can idle all day but dies when the pedal is depressed" has bad AFM written all over it. Or bad electrical connections somewhere.

This is exactly what a bad airflow meter will do.

The Colt was plugged in (block and oil pan heater) whereas the Subaru wasn't. I recall Fairbanks was shrouded in ice fog that morning. When I looked down main street to check the time/temp sign at the bank there was a moose walking down the street. At work I threw a cup of hot coffee out the back door of my office and it froze before reaching the ground.

HIGH beams wont stay on????
john in KY replied to ishada's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If you pull the steering wheel you will see there is a plastic spring-loaded switch that is the problem. The only time I had this problem I sprayed this switch with WD40, clicked in about 20 times and reassembled everything. That was about 8 years ago and the switch is still working just fine. -
What is the “newest” old Subaru would you buy?

5 lug and using std L front calipers ?
john in KY replied to discopotato03's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Are you saying you need XT6 rear rotors? Or are you doing a 4-lug to 5-lug conversion and need all the other stuff? If just rotors, I can help you in that area. May want to join this forum: http://www.subaruxt.com
