perty shure all subarus are posesed by the devel in you right foot !

on all freshly installed engines i run them no longer than 500kms and change oil on rebiuld ones 45 min of run time and change the oil this removes any debrie that may have found its way into engine

I was changeing shims in a 99 outback yesterday in position is a pain but not imposible took 2 hours to adjust #2#4 ex and intake same deal buddy had mixed up lifters and was ticking and misfire codes on #2#4 so i meshure the clearance do the math and determine the shim to use { have a bin of shims for this] but big diference in how it ran after. I used a small prybar to hold bucket down while i poped shim out and used a magnet to remove it. Making shure the ps in cam arrow was in the right position for addjusting the accoding clys valves

The dealer replaced the gaskets as cheaply as possible and in a hurry scares me !

on the glass if you look were the glass joins the frame under the plastic trim you will see 8mm nuts holding it down under those nuts are horseshoe shaped shims to addjust height of glass

So the thought is take two front cvs and press a sleeve over them and then weld the sleeve to axle do not know how mutch power thiss will hold but i gess the buggy is a good candate to test them out on. The front cv is way larger and shaft size is larger i think this is the way to go

on the loyale i was working on yesterday the red wire from diss was broken internaly in the car side of harness wiglle the wire and car died check diss wires for breakage and contanuity also check were they plug into the bottom of diss they do a 90 there and are prone to breakage

Why because the oil pump has been pumping airated oil into them fixed this yesterday on a 90 loyale changed the browm oil pump shaft seal pump housing o ring and pump to block o ring and the ticking stoped after 10 min of runing that car has been ticking for 8 years not any more

latly have been clamping the belt to pullys to make shure no slipage gentaly with small vice grips. As prev noted if you turn it marks will not line up agian but will still be in time is nesacary to turn it tho to addjust valves make shure you check valve clearances before you run it

? the quality of the work on headgaskets is easy job to mess up or hurt engine who why ect is always a gessing game but make me wonder why you whould sell right after head being done makes me think trying to hide somthing. Here fix the heads quwik so we can flip it and make it somone else problem. comp test oil preshure test cheap inshurance ask for specs

Frameless doors #1 safty feature of subarus since day one ! take that away and you have a toyota why go backwards oh wait i drive a justy with framed doors. That one thing will turn many oldschool subaru owners away and make old subarus worth a mint

10 / 1.25 inserts

so was checking out the axle situation last night have been saving the 3 rib inside cv joints for 10 years have about 40 of them so we take two 3 rib axles cut them in the center sleave and pin them weld them up and hope they hold the tecnic for welding two cvs togther is a chalenge but have seen it done before. The front cv is at least 60 % bigger and fitts the rear diff outputs so half way there. So took all my rears i have left gl and loyale made as many rear axles as i could came up with 7 hybreid axles when they are broken i have no more hope they last the season. A'm concerend now that i have the power to shear them with the 27s what about when i put on the paddle 31s

210 with 2.2 turbo swap ?

put in the 85-88 headlight supports to suite

there are shims under the glass were it mounts to addjust height

i have a whole one out but is a big peice

+ 1 bar on ds frame rail hit starter or pry bar into flex plate from top side

well what a good test weekend think the engines broken in now 3 days of redline on the beach 3 tanks of gas and 2 jugs of methonol was a bitt tight at first but loosend up by end of weekend. Broke 3 rear axles two at one time doing a hudge air off a berm everything else held up well. Tink its time to biuld some stronger axles for the rear it was shearing them of clean about 2 inchs from cv. anyway the new engine makes crazy power at least 25 % more than last years engine. And the biger turbo makes more boost starts at 15 psi so I had to jump up the meth by two jet sizes. I even got to look at speedo one time was doing about 100 at 4500 rpms in 2nd never did find the rev limit in 2nd gear mind you the buggy was hardly touching the ground half the time. Think its ready for the race season. So brain storm some rear axle ideas for me boys a'm thinking about useing two fronts cut in middle and welded togther to make larger rear axles

put a manual oil preshure gauge on it and see what it makes for preshure min 10 psi hot at idle a new engine makes about 25-30 psi hot at idle

Have only seen it 3 times in 15 years one on rally car with 2.2 turbo stuck in 3rd one on 81 gl wagon stuck in 1rst and one deul range 5 speed stuck in first all had to come apart to be fixed it happens from trying to go into to low of a gear at to high of speed

have had two loyales towed in with the main realy had come slightly unpluged the wire harness hangs on realy tends to work loose make shure is pluged in all the way

if you look up on ds side you will see the mode motor is axsess from under by cullom do no have to pull apart dash the heat mode lever is on ps side same place to pull heater box whole dash comes out as a assembly

swaped the engine posibble spline damage did the toqure converter get removed ? or forced in may have broken the pump drive or pump shaft

Forward clutch pack or fillter damage pluging or spunout a planetary most still drive it may have just ran low somhow any leaks ? cooler line fall off or pinched drain the oil and look inside the pan and see whats in it
