  1. have you checked compression i had this happen bad compression will make it not want to start (has to spin faster to keep presure up in the cylinders).
  2. 1980 subaru gl-5 wagon got it for free runns so sweet had to convert it to electonic igniton,and fix steering rack but ive gotten 30 mpg ever scince i got it.
  3. i have that cd makes youre car have 50 more HP when played loud enough.
  4. i would just do the 2.2 swap IMO it seems way more common and the ej will be able to double if not tripple the power you could ever get out of an ea82t. Rob.
  5. cold man cold. ok look on the front of the carb and next to the throttle plate there is a screw it when turned in idles the engine up then do the oposite to lower it. also look in the usrm. rob.

  11. here she is almost done just needs some tranny fluid and a new axle and shes ready to rock. (oh and the sterio :-P) i was up all night and still am up but it was worth it the bugga sprung a leak o ring from the water pump pipe so i had to fix that then put her new shoes on how dose she look. im thinking of putinga bow on her and suprizing my Gf (((she dosent know its done)))
  12. ok really weird (for me) someone els is probly gonna go "oh well duh". ok so got the 1989 dl coupe running after head gaskit job and fired it up runns then dies dose this over and over well if you get it at about 2 or 3 grand it would run ok but you can hear it goin up and down in idle speed ever so slightly. well i searched and read about 4 or five threads and people point to the MAF or in my case AFM (same thing just diferent design) anywho so i go out pull the 2 little screws and unplug it looks good (see pics) well then i unhook the top part of the air box and look in it its got some oil on it but nothing biblical (large) and i figure what the hell and i try to start it. viola IT RUNS amazingly it runs beautifully i tap the gas and it dosent miss a beat and it idles just great. but now i cant figur out why it runns so good with no AFM its unpluged and the breather tube,hose,pleanum W/E its called is just open. i know the previous owner and i know the car ran fine when he had it untel the terminal intake gaskit failure. i have no idea what a headfailure wuld do to the AFM but for now i am gonna just runn it with the AFM unplugged as it runns so well. PS i also eliminated the ports on the side of the exhaust ports under the engine (put plates over them) and eliminated the EGR. but other than that just a regular rebuild.
  13. got the 2 and 4 plug wires crossed but swaped the m and fired right up. sounds sweet ill get video later. thanks Rob.
