I was going to say this last night, but I didn't know if the Gel Cells put off hydrogen. Hydrogen isn't the best thing to have filling up your cab...The Hindenberg was filled with that. We all know how things turned out for that, unfortunately.

Yeah steel prices are outrageous! From March to April, the prices increased %60!!!! With a %5 increase every month after that.

Awesome, I was going to goto that but I got a new job and they want me to work that weekend.

I know this isn't the marketplace, but I have one, $20 shipped. The thing on the very right, right?

I've had great luck with the Ebay kits...just not on turbo engines. If the car isn't a main means of transport and can wait for the good parts, do it. If you need the car to run tomorrow, the cheap kit will work for a while. If I'm on a budget, I use Fel-Pro Head Gaskets and cheap seals. You usually can find the fel-pros for under $20 each EDIT: just looked, they've gone up a little bit, around $22 each.

A 10mm twelve point deep socket works.

How did you do the timing? DId you follow MilesFox's procedure? If you Followed the Haynes manual, I can almost guarentee that it was done wrong, I did. Here's the Link to the procedure.

Hey, I have a couple turbo manifolds, they are the standard MPFI, from 1987.5 +, not spider, you can have one or both, free, just pay shipping. PM me if you're interested.

No, I was thinking military hummer style. Sit in it. I know not the safest/smartest thing, but could be the coolest.

No, but I'm thinking of installing a gun turret...no joke.

I don't see the problem with just replacing the one head, but if you had two, replace them both. But then, look into the things like: How much is this car worth to you? How much is the work going to cost you? Can you do the work yourself, you probably could. How much is a less mileage car on Craigslist? If you replace one head, make sure to replace both head gaskets though.

Answers in red.

Can you get a buddy and play tug o war? One has the head the other has the intake and twist and pull?

I believe any other EA82 GL.

That's odd that the cable has been breaking this often. How are your grounds? I've known these cars to ground through the clutch or throttle cable. That could cause weak spots then failure.

Fuel injected? Might be a throttle position sensor going bad.

Just don't go sticking ATF down your intake:drunk:.

HAH HAH I was laughing my rump roast off to that whole thread. Good work!!

what about water injection? You're going to boost an engine, might as well toy with it.

I plan on dyno'ing once I'm done, hopefully before I blow the engine. But dyno'ing is expensive. But worth it, if your serious.

A couple months back the info under your name used to say "+10,000 to my post count" now it's "+13,000..." fishy....

Look at the timing hole on the bell housing. There should be a spot where you could put a wrench on a tab and hold the flexplate/torque convertor in place. Then a breaker bar with a 7/8" or 22mm socket.

Check for loose or removed vacuum. I'd stay away from putting a carb on it. I had this problem with a turbo ea82...It did it with a different intake and turbo on it. My friends and I think it was a ring or head problem. How's your spray pattern look on the injector? Run some cleaner through your system then replace the fuel filter. I agree with above, do a tune up, check timing. Replace the replacable to reduce the variables.

Yeah, but then it's just another fast car. The rumble is what makes a Subaru, a Subaru. Thumbs up for the rumble, thumbs down for just another loud fast car.
