the biggest issue wit Gen1 Brats and Wagons, is the independent rear torsion bars.

running unregulated power will cause all sort of erratic symptoms... a lot of electronics will not work at all if they sense above or below "normal" voltages. Especially with EFI, the computer, and injectors all work off of differing voltages, and if you are starting out too high... First order ofbusiness should be putting in a good alt. I'll bring a good alt into town tomorrow... and I can get the rings from you... (unless you need to come get it tonight...)

you may need to grab another known good MAF connector... and splice it in. I don't believe the MAF is used for the idle circuit.... when "stretching the wires" you vould have broken the wire internally, or pulled something loose inside....

yeah, been thinking about painting this one too... it doesn't look like it, but it is a little pushed in from laying it on it's side twice.... I do want to put the half door on, and I have some ideas on making it water "resistant" so I can leave it on all the time

Documented: The 1970 FF-1 Project car...
mcbrat replied to Kostamojen's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
can you take the 1400 bell housing and have the mounting surfaced planed down to the same level as the shallower rib that looks like it matches the 1100 housing pattern? or just take a belt sander to it carefully, and use some good RTV when installing it -

New Wheeler for the summer CJ5
mcbrat replied to Scott in Bellingham's topic in Non-Soob Off Roading
nice! -
wagon antenaa into the sedan... after swapping the brackets, and adding a short wire section, I had to modify the upper collar to fit in the sedan, but the outer collar and seal didn't seal tight... so I used a nice body plug from an ea81 wagon. cut the underside of the plug off, and then cut a hole in it so if fit on underneath the antenna part, and now it is nicely sealed....
