yeah with a glove and a little help from the blower motor with the blower motor resistor taken out I turned the speed on high and for the stuff I could not reach it blew it out right on my face after I was not expecting that. It's much better now and my eyes don't itch while driving. Oh yeah and this is what came out!

Long story short I was only going to replace a light which finally had me removing the blower fan then to removing the resistors for the blower and that's when I noticed I have about 2 inches thick of leaves and pin straw.. I find it hard to believe that some kind of rodent was in the car? Anyways the car is a 95 Legacy L wagon I have no cabin filter... my issue is how can I remove the whole box that the evaporator is in since I have no shop vac.. this thing is completely blocking the whole evap.. maybe that's why I have no cold air?

Well the battery is still going strong!

paid $400 for a 95 Legacy L wagon I spotted on Crag's list right after i posted a wanted ad for a 97-99 Outback wagon.. Deal was just too good to pass up and the best thing was it was the 5 Spd which is hard to find here in the North East. Only repairs needed was the exhaust and waterpump which I did I brought the car when it had 198,067 and it now has 199,689... owned it a little over a month and 4 weeks now.

I miss the old systems where you had no option to turn off the A/C when the defrost on. I know a someone who does this in his toyota every time dew is on the window.. takes forever for it to go away...

So like I said in the PM before I charged the system up with the car running I noticed when the compressor clutch kicked in the pressure would drop happen.. So anyways I filled the system to around 36psi and the air is much cooler now.. however one person told me from Legacy central that the A/C compressor cycles on and off more often when the fan speed is set to high? I will get the temperature of the vents tomorrow

Did you get my PM?

ha funny you should say that.. I had a 95 Impreza that I brought that came with the diehard battery.. I had the car for 3 years and it never failed me :-/ also my aunt she has one of those AAA club batteries so far it's holding up as well. It's not a year old just yet... the funny thing about this is her starter went out on her car and I was going to drive my car over and that's when i found out my battery was dead. I want to charge up the old interstate I took out from the car and use it in a battery box.

Did not do it with the car running and it cycles every 25 sec or so

How much cooler should the A/C cool over ambient air temperature? I'm not sure mine is cooling all the way.. so I brought one of those 134a recharge kits and connected it on the Low side and to my surprise it was already in the range that the interdynamics said to use..

I know I had a 95 impreza that had starter contacts that failed I had to hit the stater for it to work.. the walmart battery was just no good...

So home now and I put in the new interstate battery it's 550 CCA just like the old one, which by the way the owner brought it in july of 2006. Anyways the car started up faster then the walmart one so I'm a happy camper right now.. Sucks the DMV was closed today or otherwise I would be driving around.

Got the battery got rid of the everstart

Ahh I see... well going to grab the battery tomorrow I have a few places within 10 miles that sells them so I think I should be ok.

haha classic!

! is that a rubber ducky in the forester?

Well that's true.. I would be down if you guys plan for another outing. going tomorrow to get my plates for my car my car needs to learn how to swim

Looks like fun but I doubt my non lifted 95 Legacy wagon would make it.

wow.. I was about to say I know CT does not have that much open land...

I'm in Fairfield county here in Greenwich.

a "blem" is a misprinted label?

I have no clue myself my interstate I have sitting in the closet is the megatron 550CCA version I'm going to get the plus version which is the highest rating one since I have a few extra lights going and I will be using a someone mild sound system in the car.. nothing over the top. only thing sucks is they don't sell retail so I have to find one of these places that sell them I don't want them installing the battery for me.

word has it that it could be a cell low or out of water.. however if I refill it the damage has already been done right? I don't know if I will keep it or not.. I saved my old intersate battery I took out of the legacy before I replace it with this walmart one.. the intersate is still in my closet with a 9.6V charge it got drained when my ABS relay stuck on.. I might try to charge it to use it for my ham radio gear for field day. When I had my impreza I brought the car I think it was 2003 it had a diehard that looked pretty rough when I first got it.. but it lasted until I junked the car back in 2006... started every winter with no issues.

Ok here is the issue.. I went out to my car on Sunday and the car would not crank at all.. nothing but just a relay sound... the funny part is the battery voltage was reading 12.3V and when under load it went down to 3.6V and when the load was taken off it would take about 6-7 seconds to come back up to 12.3V and the dash lights in the car would reflect that (they get brighter if left in the on position without trying to crank) Ok So I just jummped the car and it started up but being curious I turned on my hi-beams and that's when the car's idle dipped down to the 500 mark and since I had my door open at the time the light for the door also reflected the load being used... after that I shut the lights off and let the car idle for about 5-7 min and then drove around the block since the car had been sitting.. I check the voltage output from the alternator and at 2000 rpms the voltage was reading 14.80V The battery is a walmart everstart MAXX I'm thinking the battery has little to no cranking amps but can supply a 12V output but can't take any high amp load at all? The bad thing is the battery is hardly 2 months old... I think I will be replacing it with a interstate megaton plus

ok it turns out it wont fit it's too big.
