Hi I kind of need help finding out how the SJR 2# lift fits in the tower . The pictures I have seen show the SJR on the lift faces outwards to the fender . The ones I got that won't happen . Did I get the wrong ones ? Anyone have pics of the lift in the tower? Thanks ,I really need help on this one .

I might just get lucky and only need a new pump. I'll try that first . Thanks for everything ! -

Thanks for all the help guys . We did the cam tower o ring thing when we did the belts . Also the mickey mouse gasket for the oil pump .First time the gasket got messed up so I had to get another one. It was done right the second time "Hahaha".I think the oil pump is just weak.I think that will be my first step .I hope that's what's wrong then I won't have to touch anything else .Thanks again ! -

I'm thinking it's time for a new pump but lifters might be part of the problem also . I'll look for that fuel additive next fill. I'll check for the oil passages and give that a try too.Is there a cheaper place to get a pump and lifters ?Thanks for all the help. -

It's been happening for a while ,about 3000 miles . It was hard to hear in the winter with the heater on and the windows up . Now the weather is better and the windows down it sounds bad .Oil is fine and golden ,no metal . No overheating or anything. I could try and make a video of what it sounds like . -

The engine light works and doesn't come on .The plugs and wires are less then half a year old.When we put the mickey mouse gasket in do you think it didn't seal right ? The engine isn't ticking when idling .I'm going to try the belts ,next will be a new pump and gasket . We did the cam tower seals but that will be my next check .It has 230 000 km and was front wheel drive so it was never off road .It passed air care with flying colors after we did the work . Thanks for all the help saving my 4x4 sw. -

Thanks for all the help ,I'll give it a shot .I hope I didn't damage the engine. I've been driving it for months like that. It seems to have less power than it should also . It's my first Subaru build so do you think I should pull the engine again to do the timing belts ?I'll try cleaning the pressure relief pipe also . Thanks again! -
Under load my 1989 subaru gl makes rocker noise . Sounds like valves need adjusting but I don't think they are adjustable or are they ? It has a new oil pump seal .It's not ticking or anything . I did the belts + and cam seals . It sounds worse with lower grade gas . Is my timing just off by a bit or just bad rockers .Almost sounds like it's dieseling.It only has 230 000 km.It runs and drives fine with no back fires.I really need help on this one,thanks!
