  1. Hello all. Does anyone have a discount code for RockAuto August 2022. Thank you.
  2. Over in the Parts Forum. Not mine. Somebody go pick these up in Illinois.... '83 & '82 Sub Station Wagon project One parts car, eng ran 4wd trans ran , much rust Second Station Wagon, all rust welded up, ran, auto 4wd , works, needs finish Come and get them, for free, or I'll scrap them. for $$$
  3. if you have spark at the plugs and starting fluid, then it must be the firing order. Maybe when you replaced plug wires. Ensure that you have 1-3-2-4 counterclockwise... #1 on disty cap is closest to firewall.
  4. Good for you, owning up to the mistake. Several of us could have lost many nights of sleep for NOT knowing. Glad you got it fixed.
  5. Good idea on the Forester. PM me ... I may be interested in buying the POS EA rattletrap.
  6. Oh my... has all 4 mud flaps. Somebody in CO needs to 'save' these parts.
  7. Dave T, do you need a body? Remember, I have the '85 automatic wagon. I can get pics if you are interested. Maybe take this to PM.
  8. Clunker, GD is in Portland, OR. His shop is Superior Soobie and Import. He does excellent work.
  9. Rockauto has a Fram G4167 that looks correct. Check for the same # at autoparts store.
  10. 3-4 lbs is perfect for carb'd ea81. Find the sight glass on the carb and see what level it is at. Pull the rear fuel filter and take it to parts store and get something similar (same fitting size).
  11. Also, only shift into or out of 4wd on snow or mud roads. Do not do it on dry pavement. Use the clutch. Less than 45mph. 4 Low is for deep snow or trails... just slower than street traffic conditions.
  12. GLoyale has a shop in Corvallis, OR. Not sure how to get ahold of him. GD's shop is in Portland, OR. Superior Subaru & Imports.
  13. Mine turned out to be a speedo cable. My '85 Honda is doing it now.
  14. Wait a minute ... the concave side of washer goes toward the hub. The convex side goes to the axle nut.
  15. If you pull the radiator, it makes the job relatively easy. Timing belt, idlers, tensioners, cam seals and orings, waterpump and hoses. Might be $200 in parts. You can discard the timing belt covers ... just keep engine fluids off them. Makes for easy inspection and future timing belt replacement.
  16. not much to break on a gauge. I like the 5' 6" hose. Thank you for the info.
  17. DaveT - I am also want to install an aftermarket oil gauge... Have you installed one using this port? If so, where would one buy the British pipe thread adapter? Size? Thank you for the heads up.
  18. get a Baja. It's basically a 4-door Brat. Has cargo door so the dog can move freely between back seat area and the truck bed.
  19. Starter ground to bell housing? Maybe forgot to slide bolt thru the ground cable when finished with clutch job?
  20. ATF for automotive interior restoration... ha! That's exactly the motivation I needed to write my new book... "101 Uses for ATF" written by I.B. Oil
  21. can you post pics of your coupe? Can't wait to 'hear' it run...
  22. original made it to 299,665 !!!! You're going to love new shocks. Make sure you get new tophats. I have heard of guys replacing the bearings in them ... but never done it. I bought new hats ... they were reasonable.
