Thanks fellas, I had that thought in my mind. I will get a new pump in the near future (as soon as I have a reliable income again). Hopefully, it won't be too long.

Yup, that's my ride. It's just like all of my other vehicles these days; Good for everything, but not great at anything. Well, it's IS pretty great in the snow.

After checking the relay, filter, and power to the pump, I came to the conclusion that the pump wasn't working. Three hits with a framing hammer later, my wagon is back in business. Thanks for the help!

It's normal.

If I remember right I wedged a board between the flywheel and the bell housing through the timing window. Try using a breaker bar or a stronger impact. Reverse threads?

You would do better to post this question in the "newer generation" forum. A lot of guys here deal with cars that are 20-35 years old and they may know little to nothing about an Imp.

I went to start my loyale last night after it sat for about 2-3 weeks- it wouldn't start. So today I went out to figure out what's wrong with it and, before I started taking things apart, I tried to see if it would start. It started right up. I then drove it around back (maybe 1/8 mile) and proceeded to clean the interior. When I tried to start it to move it back to the front, it started and ran for about 3 seconds and died. After some tinkering and some research, I've come to the conclusion that my fuel pump isn't turning on. I've read some posts about the fuel pump relay and would like to check connections and such. Can anyone tell me where the relay is located? Can anyone give me some pointers on what else I should check? For the record: It will run on ether. The filter is pretty new (under 10,000 miles). Timing belts are new and working. I don't hear the fuel pump turn on when the ignition is in the run position. I don't hear the fuel pump turn on when I connect the green plugs.

Thanks guys. Good advice from both of you.

There is knocking in the rear pass side of my wagon. It happens going around corners and it seems to knock every rotation of the wheel. There is also a squeakin sound coming from the same area and at the same intervals as the knock but it will do it while driving straight, although it isn't constant and goes away before 20mph of so. Originally I thought that it was a wheel bearing, but then it occurred to me that it could be my cv joint. Is there a way to test it?

About the top 1/3 of the engine case is just a cover with the starter and air filter/box inside. The engine itself is actually very compact like a subaru.

No I was riding a black BMW motorcycle. '71. It was on the corner of Public and South Boulder.

Dude, I just saw your ride in Lafayette today. I was riding the sweet black old BMW. It looks pretty cool but I noticed your camber is WAY off. You should get that fixed before you wreck your tires. Those wheels look sweet!

Did anyone else get a spam email from Abrio? It said Subaru so I figured it might be the hackers from this site. Just wondering if ony one knows anything about it.

I also have a se for sale: 4 with Yokohama Ice Grippers (snow tires) 185/70/13. 2 very good 2 not so good. rims are nice. I'll send you pics if you want them. $75 + shipping unless you live near Boulder, CO.

Get the ball lug adapters. I got mine from vee dub parts .com or something like that. about 25 cents a piece if I remember correctly.
