  1. Anyone know how i can tell which size i have other then measureing it. ben
  2. Heres another question. How do you guys flush the heatercore with those hoses being so short, and not causeing a huge mess.
  3. I thought i just timetraveled, didnt your brat look like that last year. In other news i think you need to give me that roof basket on your new car there. Would look much better up there. That or paint it black my friend.
  4. What about good flow through the radiator. I noticed most of the bottom of mine has tons of fins missing. As far as flow, it has a new 192 or so T-stat in it. The temp gauge gets to half on the idiot gauge. And yea there is a ton of snow inside the car now so i will half to dry that out.
  5. Unfortunately i dont live in a house i live in an apartment. Unless my father in law lets me flush it in his shop (doubtfull) then it wont get done this winter. Anyone know what size belt to use with this ac alternator setup. Pretty sure this is the dealer installed A/C not the factory. And its a california car, if that makes any difference. Ben
  6. Yep FI here, ill check it out this weekend.
  7. I believe we ended up getting 15 inches or so. Which is pretty good considering we dont get snowstorms like that around here. They finally started off clearing up the parking lot good around here. I had to help a lady get her minivan unstuck lastnight. I wish i had a towrope i would of just drug her out. Thinking towroap and snow shovel are the next purchases. Sure ill dig ya out for 10 bucks. Anyways looks like the throttle is still stickin so i think im headed over to my fatherinlaws shop this weekend to try and figure that out.
  8. Connie, your a smart girl so i warn you. I had an izuzu once. They have headgasket problems and they have horrid frame rot problems. Look the frame over really good before you do anything.
  9. No sorry i didnt clarify. I have heat coming out of the floorboards, the windshield, the vents. Its just not burn my butt hott. I had the inside of my windows ice up on me tonight. Nothing i could do could heat up the inside of the car. I really wish i would of flushed the heatercore this summer. That and i could use a new radiator, probally water pump also. But i digress.
  10. Hey mick, in all seriousness whats going on with the old girl. Seems to of been nothin but trouble since castina.
  11. Honestly i can think of a better porsche to buy the a 944. I personally like the 928s myself but i understand those have a bit of problems as well. Honestly i like porsche but i think its mainly a name thing. There are cars you can get more for your money. Again i say i do really like porsche but a cheep used one i dont know if it would be worth it.
  12. Thats awsome mick you should fire that baby up and go for a cruise, see how she does in the snow. Oh..... wait....... ooooooooooooo to soon.
  13. And as far as i know, the ac isnt charged for cold but it has pressure. All it needs is a belt. But now 2 days with no work i cant afford chit.
  14. Stupid question, but would some rainx on the inside help this as well.
  15. I hear them switching, from floor, to window, to vent.
  16. Hey at least my old subaru starts. Dohhh:rolleyes:
  17. Honestly i dont mind the snow, but the artic temps we get here sometimes id ratter not have. You may not of noticed the cancer on my car. But yea the 4wd works great.
  18. Definately need to flush the heater core. I changed the blower motor this summer so i know thats pretty clear. I have ac but the belt isnt hooked onto the compressor. The only way i can get heat through the vents it seems is to hit the A/C switch.
  19. Me and the wifes van in the last few shots. And this isnt the end, its suspost to last till 6 this afternoon.
  20. I dont have a heating problem per-say. But when driveing around my windshield kept freezing over and fogging when i didnt have it on the windshield function. I cant seem to keep the inside windows from fogging, and keep the heat on vent. What is a good setting to cure this. Or is my heating system just not circulating well enough. It just seems strange, every other car ive had seems to have a vent on the outside to heat the windshield. Or maybe ive just thought this. Any ideas. I get heat in the car fine. Its not super, ouch burn my hand hot but its hot.
  21. Tell your mom that youve got a subaru and your good to go.
