HATCHY

Are you ge4tting fuel to the front or rear fuel filter?

I had the same problem when I changed my pump that bracket its on broke off lucky I was able to get it back on., with screws,

Problem solved. Short out somewhere in the wire. Spliced in and found something that's got when the cars on. Works perfect. Probably Not the best fix. But should be Just first fine. Thanks for the help folks. I appreciate it a tons

Oh OK that makes more sense I've never even heard of that part. I was loooking outside the car. Hahahaa wow. I thought you guys were sayinghood latch outside the car. Not Hood release inside. Good to know.

Cool ill try it out. I Still can't locate this fpcu. Near the Hood latch. My pos doesn't have this unit. My soob doesn't even have a stock tach

No it doesn't do anything just cuts off. While cranking. And turning g over. When I get home ill look again for this sensor by the latch again. But I didnt see anything. No power while cranking. And I back blew with a compressor to see if a clog was in the lines, and it was free flowing

It pumps for a second a turns off. But NP fuel will get to the Front filter. All wires on coil are hooked up and tight. And the ground on the fuel pump is hooked up tight and clean

Can I get a pic. on not seeing anything.

I wish I had a tachometer stock in my car, But I have a standard, I have nothing at all. no defrost none of that stuff, no oil pressure or volts, Ill take a look for that under the latch.. I have a tach installed but it doesnt seem to work anymore chepo from o reillys

I dont know what in the hell is happening, I was getting fuel to the front filter this whole time, that Ive been breaking down on the road. So I did a complete tune up, and with your guys info narrowed it down to fuel issue. So now the last time I broke down on tuesday, Fuel filters are dry no gas. I changed my pump brand new, now it only only turns on for a second, when I plug in my ignition (hotwired push button) i hear it click and hum for a second then turns off, I went under the car and unhooked the line to make sure it pumps, and it pumps fine but then shuts off. I checked fuses and everything its just a mystery.. Ive had my hatch on and off the road like 3 times now broke down. from fuel delivery. Thanks a ton guys Ive done all I know, I dont know what to do next besides hot wire it up to the battery on a switch and put on an inline fuse.

I found what was wrong i think, The fuel pump finally quit, both filters dry now, fuel pump wont stay on, so now i have to hot wire the thing to my alraedy hotwired fan switch, damn electrical in these subarus sometimes gives you gruff.

The only other thing i can think of besides my distributor, is float is out of wack, because when it does run it runs rich and burns tons of fuel.. . and two weeks ago i was geting about 28 a gallon. Or a clog in the gas tank. maybe a splash of atf Thanks anybody in the area have a spare denso distributor, ill give ya 50 bucks for it

Yes. I did both fuel filters. cap, rotor, plugs, wires, . I dont have a tach in my car, because I have a std hatch. barebones, not even a rear defrost , and yes i see fuel squirting in the carb and coil wire has spark just wont fire up.. I have had a disty pop on me before, and it ran rough then died. and never started up again. I let the car cool down last night and tried to fire it up, it staRTED FOR A SECOND THEN DIED, THEN NO MORE. Really weird..,, I just went out to fire it up. boom fires right up but dies wont stay running smells really rich

nice..... We were out last night until 230 . good solid snow last night,

87 hatchback ea81

Any ideas. Its getting bad just full tune up. Ran and drove fine. Then sputter sputter die. Now it wont start at all. I'm getting spark to the coil wire and fuel in the Carb. But wont fire over. Really weird seeing is how an hour ago I was sliding in the snow and It was runnnig perfect

Appreciate the help. I usually use Napa. Thats where my clutch was from. So I just did front fuel filter and I'm about to do the rear. Full tune up cap rotor spark plugs (ngk) wires. And a bottle of heet. For the tank. I hope this it. Working on cara outside in the mud in he winter is rough

So I took the wires off and found one wire to be rusted and corroded. At shucks there Not showing any other fuel filter. Bit the one under the Hood. Could this bad wire. Cause this to happen.

so this morning the car worked and operated perfect. then about 20 mins into the trip same thing happened again. sputtering and dieing, could this be the crapy gas i put in from arco., maybe a bad batch of gas?? I cnt think of anything else it could be. im draining the tank today and changing the other fuel flter on the tank

i just fixed the fuel filter lucky i vroke down a block from oreillys. it seemed to fix the problem but on the way hom,e it sputtered one more time and then didnt do it again, what is going in

I was driving and everything was good. Them the car started gagging. And jumping. Then shutting down. Start up no problem. Umderload loses all power and hiccups dies. Then starts no problem isthia fuel filter

I bought my weber from carbs unlimited, it seemed to be jetted just right good idle not to rich, and no bogging when i accelerate, been on for 3 or 4 years now, never had a problem

OR when you swap you can do a ea82 manifold. better flow and I believe the same adapter will work, or maybe im mistaken

Just got off the horn with Home Depot. Too my suprise they have Reverse drill bits, No one else around had them, This should make things a bit easier. Thanks for the advise fellas

cool. yeah steel threads are choice. I might just take the engine back out and do them all. Still undecided, seeing how its snowing right now,. or just get on my back in the street and go to work. Man i need a shop
