I haven't put my car in lo in awhile but I believe when in hi 4wd there's a green light that says 4wd. When you engage lo there's a yellow light that says lo as well as the green 4wd light. Assuming those are working. I can check later.

Subaru Brake Tool 9255 90000
Hitoshi replied to Hitoshi's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I forget where I got my Bentley now. It was online somewhere but not Books4Cars. They didn't have it. Maybe Amazon or eBay. Anyways, I know this post is over a year old but I just got my license back and finally was able to get the work done on the front breaks. I ended up getting a break tool from O'Reilly's and it was fine. Breaks are feeling a lot better now. Thanks! -
Hmm, I sanded down the surface of the manifold. I think it's a little better but there's still a leak at the base between the manifold and adapter piece. Maybe it's the gasket material I got from the autoshop isn't right but still leaking... I'll try it again with shellac now.. hopefully that'll do the trick.

What the Heck Does ECS Stand For?
Hitoshi replied to Sapper 157's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I have an '84 GL with an auto trans. It has some sort of sensor in the exhaust, I didn't really examine it. But the ECS light would go flicker off and on. It did that until I finished the AVS delete. Actually needed 3 quarters because there was another pipe to block off closer to the cat. My ECS light still goes on after some driving but I have other problems I'm working through right now, lol. I'm curious to know what your issue is. Let us know what you do. Thank! -
Hey, I'm having trouble getting my weber installed without a vacuum leak between the manifold and the adapter as well as the adapter and the weber. Do you guys have any tips or methods for getting those installed without leaks? I've tried dry gaskets, "greased" gaskets as per the instructions. I think the best success I've ever had was using a cereal box gasket with some gasket sealant between intake/adapter I bought from the local auto store then a dry gasket for the adapter/Weber but even then I had some issues with it eventually. I've already broke a adapter torquing down the weber. And I'm not sure how much more I could get those alan bolts down without breaking it. This also applies to the carb studs/Weber nuts. Any tips or help would be appreciated! Thanks- Toshi

Too Much? 86 EA81 hatch questions.
Hitoshi replied to Mikldom's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
It's really rare to find really clean hatches. If I would have found this when I was looking I would have jumped on it. Although, I'm not too big on the maroon/tan interior. -
Do the Escort's seats work in the rear too?

Update: I wanted to thank everyone here who helped me get this done. I finally got my car back together today and took it out for a test run. Shifts well now. Picked up some Extra-S this weekend as well as some studded snow tires. I should be ready for the mountains soon! Thanks again! :-p -Toshi

Thanks. I did a search for crank pulley but must have skipped this one cause of the title. Next time I'll google too.

Oh sorry. EA81.

Anyone know off the top of their head the size of the crank pulley bolt? Thanks- Toshi
