Welcome Catalina! About the ThermoSwitch, there is a Writeup about installing Dual Electric Fans and a Slightly cooler temp ThermoSwitch, with Pictures and Guiding information that you might find useful, following this Link: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/125754-easy-guide-on-five-steps-to-twin-electric-fans-swap/ Beside the ThermoSwitch going Bad, also the Thermostat might got stuck and / or the Radiator might be Clogged; if you don't know how those things are, you might want to let someone to check the Thermostat and also to do a Flush on the Radiator plus pour Fresh antifreeze. Kind Regards.

Kia Sephia Sporty
Loyale 2.7 Turbo replied to Loyale 2.7 Turbo's topic in Non Soob Cars and Bikes Discussion
The Driver's Seat on the "KiaStein" was the worst worn part from it when we received it, seems like the previous owner always drove alone; so I decided to Take Out the Seat to fix it... I Found broken metal wires from the Back Support and weak Sponge; so I welded new, thicker metal wires for the Back Support, and added a thick layer of Blue Sponge, over the old one... this is the Finished Product: Now my wife will never use a Cushion to drive comfortably Kind Regards. -
Kia Sephia Sporty

Three months ago, I changed the original Kia Sephia Alternator, with a Junk Yard unit from a Kia Rio: But recently, the Rio Alternator also gave up... So I opened Both with the idea of use the best parts from the two, to build one: But that was impossible, because I found that the Sephia Alternator, was built using Hitachi Designed Components; while the Rio Alternator was built using Mando Designed Components... Long story Short: Despite that the two alternators mount equal and work equal; they are Very Different on their inner design, use Different inner parts, Different Carbon Contacts, Different Bearings... etc, which does not interchange each other. So, I ended fixing them Both, changed all their ball bearings, inner regulators, Carbon Contacts, and they are in good shape again; this test was done using the Kia Rio 80 Amps alternator after I fixed it; with Headlamps and A/C working: I stored the Sephia one inside a plastic bag, on a shelf, just in case... Kind Regards. -

The other day, after washing our cars, I was cleansing the Mirrors on the "KiaStein" and the Passenger's side mirror fell off right on my hand! (here you can see my age old HP R837 Camera, with the battery cover held with a Zip tie) I put a drop of Marvel Lubricant on each plastic tab behind the Mirror, Slided it in Place 'til the Tabs locked on the plastic Base, and Problem: Solved! -
Kia Sephia Sporty

Several Miles and Months has passed already since I installed the Rear Disc Brakes, the increased bore Master Cylinder, and the Double Vacuum Booster on the "KiaStein" and the Brakes and Overal Braking Behavior has been working Flawlessly since then. Previously, the Brakes were Unbalanced from Factory, the front ones had to bear with the braking effort almost alone; now the "KiaStein" stops quickly, without locking easily the Wheels, nor emitting any noise. Kind Regards. -
Kia Sephia Sporty
Loyale 2.7 Turbo replied to Loyale 2.7 Turbo's topic in Non Soob Cars and Bikes Discussion
The Brakes has been working Absolutely Flawlessly, without any issue, but Recently I decided to inspect everything on the "KiaStein" and I found that the Kia Rio Flexible Lines, was rubbing against the Shock Absorber's Body, somehow... and the Rubber cover on them, was wear enough to expose the the braided nylon underneath! So, I obtained the two Flexible Lines, original part for the Kia Sephia with Rear Disc Brakes, 0K2A-24-3810C from RockAuto.com: And I installed them today: Voilá! ... Problem Solved -

A little update on the "KiaStein" Rear Disc Brakes: I never found in Honduras, the Original Flexible Lines for the Rear Calipers, and the junk yard's ones came like this: But then, I found two candidates that might work, one from the Kia K2700 truck, and the Other from the Kia Rio: I chose to use the Kia Rio's Front Flexible lines then, But now, Seems like to Use them, was a Bad idea after all... -

Welcome! / ¡Bienvenido! We use a Spacer for the Engine Crossmember, so it drops the Drivetrain, in order to keep the front Axles as straight as we could, otherwise the axles will wear 10X faster. Post photos of your Colombian Subie, we love photos here. Kind Regards.

ACDelco TCK299 Timing Belt Component Kit
Loyale 2.7 Turbo replied to Dee2's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Let me ask you a Question: Does the Belts say "Gates" in them? Kind Regards. -
Well, 10W~30 seems too "Thin" but should be ok, the EA81 owner's manual said something about avoiding the prolongated use of 30, unless its heavy winter time; I know yours is EA82 like mine, but that recipe was widely known here in Latin America for the EA82 also; so they might be run with 10W~40 or 20W~50. You can read more info about oils and a Scan of said manual, here: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/126284-how-to-determine-which-is-the-best-motor-oil-for-your-car/ Kind Regards.
