  1. Pull your fuse box cover and the kick panel under the steering column.. There should be a blue female and a blue male and green male wire (or vice versa male/female and colors) Anyways, disconnect what ever one is plugged in. and replace with the other color. if green is plugged in, plug the blue one in.. etc.... That will reset the light. They come on between 50 and 60,000 100 and 120,000 and 170 to 180,000 miles to check your egr, push on inside of the diaphram of the egr valve.. if it makes your car sputter like its going to die, and then it springs back out and the ran runs fine, the egr is fine..
  2. yeah for offroading why would you want a front diff that slips? wouldnt you want it locked ?
  3. I ran 85/110 watt in my 86 GL for about a month, didnt like the color of the bulbs so I changed them.. Didnt do anything to the wires.. didnt melt em or anything
  4. BAsically the rubber seals goto **** and we gotta get them replaced then Correct? Yippee.. I get to leave my soob at the dealer to have those bitches fix it..... BTW, Duct tape works good for long drives for all of you with door leaks.. I did that last winter during a 6 hr drive and it kept down on snow blowing in the door cracks and their was no whistling
  5. You shouldnt need a steering wheel puller.. The wheel "should" come off if you use a lil muscle.... http://www.cybrrpartspro.com/Chilton%20Manuals/8797m/8797CH06_58.HTML check that out.. might help
  6. Mine does the same thing.. it gets REALLY REALLY Annoying and cold.. I went to napa to see if they had door seals but they looked at my lik eI was crazy... :banghead: Anyone got any ideas how I can fix the whistling problem
  7. you have a on the column dimmer switch right? You gotta pull the steering wheel and replace that switch. sounds like yours is doing the same thing mine does
  8. You only want the spring.. You have to use the old strut and you take the spring out of the hold one and put the Honda Spring on the soob strut... I believe thats what someone said in a post not to long ago... Double check with one of the other memebers just to be sure and I'd only pay 10 or 20 bucks for thes spring
  9. my soob, when its cold, the dimmer switch sticks and both lights are on.. I love it too.. I've ran my car like that for aobut 2 hours with both filaments on and they bulbs were fine.. Might work for you, might not.. Lemme know what happens
  10. Well chalk up another massive tow job with the sooby. Brings the total to: 1 1998 F350 Quad Cab (drivers side completely burried over the top of the tires and he was runnin 33" tires) 150 ft 1 1/4 inch tow line.. line got tight at 25 mph, came out first pull 1 2004 3500 Dodge Pickup - burried over the axles in snow (easy pull for my soob) 1 1995 2500 Chevy Extended Cab, Passenger side front tire completly burried.... back passenger snow over the castle nut on the rear axle.. (Took 6 jerks in 4 LO but I got it out) So I want to see a list of the other cars/trucks you guys have pulled out with soob power
  11. I just crawled under the car for as long as I could stand.. -10 F up here this morning Its leaking from the seal on the stub shaft of the tranny.... How hard is it to replace that seal? can it be done from the outside of the car or do I have to drop the tranny and replace the seal throuhg the inside? I guess I shouldnt be dumping the clutch at 5 grand on the snow, every time I shift gears... lol
  12. My GL 5speed man DR tranny is leakin oil somewhere out of the drivers side, above the cv axle.... Anyone had problems with these tranny's leakin?
  13. I agree with Dave Make a 2 year calender.....
  14. I've gotten 29 mpg on a road trip one time last year.. Fairbanks to Valdez in the middle of winter lst year Hasnt happened since.. I'm gettin about 20 - 22 right now That was with everything stock on the car... except for the custom exhaust leak.. lol
  15. Heres my pic I'd like to "try" to get in the calender I have the full size pic... 1280x1024...
  16. just got some of my rallyin pictures scanned... check em out
  17. hey I have a pic of my car that I'd like to try to get into the calander.. I'll have it tonite sometime. just waiting for a friend to email it Is it too late to get in?
  18. Just thought I'd say happy thanksgiving.. This year I'm giving thanks to my Blue Soob and the sticky greeniness.. How bout you guys?
  19. you could have cooked your gaskets, cracked a head, burned your pistons.. EA82s are pretty tough engines.. I overheated mine several times, still runs fine
  20. your most likely blowing oil out of the cam covers.. Mine leaks like a S.O.B. Also pull your skid plate off from under the oil pan, get in there with a 10 mm socket and make sure all of those bolts are tight.. They get lose and it will blow oil out that way too Oil pump is in front of the engine, right behind the elec. Fan on the radiator. Rocker covers = Cam covers.. I can reach all but 2 of the bolts on the covers... the other two, you have to bend those splash guards away from the motor a lil bit, and then you can get to them from under the car
