1984 GL ea81 distributor replacement trouble
lostbrat replied to lrgvanman's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Ordered this from Napa online. It had the free shipping . every time I order from RockAuto. Their shipping costs are ridiculous. I have several hitachis and a few nipandenso's. Probably eight distributors in total. I'm just going to go with the new ignition module, I swapped distributors with another one that I had marked as being good taking out of a running car and still had no spark so I decided to just go with a new module. Now I'm trying to find the right coil that goes with the Hitachi distributor. They have several coils listed but they don't list it specifically for which distributor -
1984 GL ea81 distributor replacement trouble
lostbrat replied to lrgvanman's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I would hate to revive an old post of 4 years. But I do need to ask which distributor did you install and where did you get it? And do you have a part number? I see a cardone rebuild available online. I'm curious if that's what you used and if it's been working fine. I have lost spark. I've tried coils. I believe my distributor pickup has gone bad and would need a new pickup for the distributor I have. Anyways, if anyone else could respond with a good replacement for a 1984 Subaru brat with an ea81 engine -

4 speed with 4wd only??????
lostbrat replied to lostbrat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
yup, it was the inner cv joint blown up... cup turned but axle shaft did not.. all fixed now... not sure how it broke but all the balls were in the boot. replaced it with another shaft I had and will use this one as a core some day -
What's up with these ball joints? (pics)
lostbrat replied to l75eya's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I buy my ball joints at autozone... that was years ago. now i just bring them a worn out BJ and get a new free one:headbang: lets see 3 brats and only paid for 2 new Ball joints:clap: and now I need 2 more for next build -
4 speed with 4wd only??????
lostbrat replied to lostbrat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i did not think of that. I gave my brat to my nephew and 6 days later he called telling me this is what hapenned. working on it tomorrow and sure hope its an axle??? thats easy fix... I have 2 spare transmissions so I am prepared to change that tomorrow.. I was thinking maybe something internal to 4wd shifter, because no strange noises, or so an 18 year old says??? -
driving in 2wd , heard a bang and now only drives in hi or lo 4wd ranges? 4wd shifter seems to operate properly. can this be fixed or do I need a New transmission.???? no noises from trans while driving now...
