I had a shorted wire in the door switch wire. You have to remove the door panel, look at the bottom aft end.

ERG control valve or Purge Canster control valve. Follow the hose in both directions and it will go to one or the other and the other end will be the vacuum source (manifold). Easy to find at the yards, just take your meter along and check the coil.

Yep, the water pump is leaking (there is a weap hole that you can not see with the pump installed. It results in the leak you described. Do the hoses and belts, T-belt, water pump, cam & crank seal, tighten the oil pump cover screws, and carefully check the pulley bearings and tensionner for wear and indications of failure. Make sure you fully bleed the coolant system when you go back together to get all of the air out. www.1stsubaruparts.com is a good source of parts.

A quick question about oil pressure
lmdew replied to fluffy's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Cold oil will give you high pressure. Not a problem. You may have a sensor that is a little out. What's the reading when things warm up? -
I looked at a 88 GL wagon today in Colorado Springs. Engine full of oil film, but said to be running 5sp with Hi/Lo 4WD 240K miles Clear coat missing from all topside surfaces Brakes needed Tires driveable Interior OK, door panel shot Rear fenders have LARGE rust bubbles They are asking 500 OBO. You can find the listing in the Thrifty Nickle online. I was thinking $100 at best. I'm sure its headded for the bone yard.

Try your local auto yard. If you do find one, check the MC stepping on the brakes. When you disconnect the MC resist the temptation to apply a full stroke to the MC. The brakes when working properly only use a small portion of the stroke and you don't want to mess the seals by pushing them into areas they don't normally go. Same goes for bleeding the system when you install a used MC. Check 1stsubaruparts.com for seals. If you are stuck, I can pull one for 40+shipping from 80916. Later

Any other signs of a HG failure, oil in the overflow tank. If that was showing, I'd say a Subaru Dealer should have caught it, but other may not. Some HG failures are only seen when pushing the car, heavy loads-engine operating for some time. They may not have seen it. If you paid with a credit card stop the payment and work out a deal. BBW still applies. Did you get a dealer title, or was the previous owner on the title, if so try to contact them and see if they knew the HG was gone! Good Luck
