Loyale 4WD won't engage
Houston505 replied to Gary Greenspoon's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Just went through the same thing. I unhooked the vacuum lines when I was changing the fuel filter and hoses, forgot to hook 'em back up. -
I see it now, was only showing a few Subaru tires on my phone.

84 Brat Intermittently Grounding Out?
Houston505 replied to jmoss5723's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
How are your terminal connectors? I know I didn't tighten my + side up enough once and the dash would light up but it wouldn't start. I would check all the wires running to your battery and work back to see if there's an abrasion or loose connector somewhere first. -
I guess I should have asked, what wheels from other vehicles will fit? I was hoping to find some at UPull but didn't know where to start. I'm currently riding on the stock P175/70R13's with all four hubcaps.

I'm wanting to go with a more aggressive wheel and tire on my 92 Loyale, any recommendations? It's 4 lug and I didn't want to have to mess with modifying the hubs, are there any styles that will bolt right on?

Just finished the headache of getting all the emissions codes cleared so I can get Lola('92 Loyale) registered. Had to replace the purge and EGR solenoids and the EGR valve. Swapped the existing Bosch Platinum plugs (in the car when I bought it) to NGK Copper+ and threw some new wires on as well. The car seems to like the NGK's a lot better than the Bosch's. Next step is a new cap and rotor, and front axles....

Now on to the fun stuff! -

Had to step away from it for a few days before I drove it off a bridge, lol. I finally got rid of that pesky CEL! Had to try 3 different EGR solenoids before I swapped connectors on one of my purge solenoids and stuck that in there. CEL is gone and I'm not getting any other codes, so hopefully no more issues with that. -

Swapped solenoids, car seems to be running fine but the CEL is still on and it's giving me the same code (34). Do I need to clear the code to get the CEL to go off? Also, my Chiltons says to clear the code you just plug the read and memory connectors together, but it doesn't say if or when to unplug them....I'm very close to having a Loyale bon-fire... -

After I put the new solenoid in will the CEL just go away or do I have to clear the code? -

Status: I pulled a few solenoid valves ( and a vapor canister for S's and G's) put them in and no more code 35. However, now I'm getting code 34, EGR solenoid/valve. I put a brand new EGR valve in it and am going to try a few of the solenoids I pulled yesterday to see if they'll correct the issue (waiting for the car and weather to cool down a bit first). I did notice when I put the new purge components in, my idle seemed to be A LOT smoother than it was before, but after shutting it off and starting it again the idle was rough and that's when I pulled the code 34. I know on newer cars if you have a CEL on it will rob some of the power or make the car run different, is this the same with the ea82? -
Subaru superstation 89 problems

89 problems and a switch ain't one! -

That's my plan of action now. Go to UPull and grab 2-3 solenoids and see if any of 'em will fix the issue. If that doesn't work, where do I get a 35ohm resistor and will that pass emissions? They never do a visual inspection here in NM -

The purge solenoid has vacuum, that's why this is driving me nuts!
