    I do have spark. How would i correct the distributor timing?

    I have an 85 Brat with a Weber Carb that won't start. I have replaced: Distributor cap Distributor rotor Fuel Pump Both Fuel Filters Spark plugs Spark plug wires The closest it ever got to starting was when I put carb cleaner in it. So maybe even though it has all new fuel parts it still isn't going to the carb? Any advice would be helpful.

    Ok thanks. I did cap the return line. How do you wire up the electric choke?

    I have an 85 Brat that I just put a new weber carb on. Problem is when I got the carb mounted up and started it the car immediately went to 5K RPMs and sat there. I checked the throttle wheel and it was ok. I even started the car with the throttle wheel assembly completely unattached from the carb, but it still idles at 5K RPMs. I know I must be missing something. My guess is a vacuum hose. So far all I have hooked up to the new carb is the fuel line and the vacuum hose to the distributor. My questions are what else do I need hooked up to the carb? And if I do need something else where is it and where do I plug it up. I'm new at this so any pictures, diagrams or whatever would be much appreciated. I can add some pictures tomorrow of the car tomorrow afternoon if anybody thinks it'll help. Thanks!

    I have a 1985 Subaru Brat that has the 2 dash speakers and speakers in both doors. My problem is that both speakers on the driver side don't work. The passenger side is perfectly fine, and it looks like one of the previous owners was messing with all the wiring. That is why I think that they might not be plugged up right. Do any of you all know where the wires for the driver speakers are? I don't want to take the entire dash and door out if I don't have to. I can post pictures of the wiring to if needed. Any help is appreciated ????

    Soooo, I bought an 85 Brat earlier this month that had been sitting for a couple years and has a bunch of wasps nests. I'm close to getting it running, but I don't want to have those wasps in there. They are in hard to reach places that. I have been using PB Blaster to kill them. Anybody have any suggestions for getting rid of these SOBs?

    I just recently bought an 85 Subaru Brat for 500$, that supposedly only needs a new carburetor. Like most people on here I'm doing a Weber 32/36 swap for it. I don't need to pass an emissions test so I want to get rid of as much unnecessary stuff as I can (EGR, vacuum hoses etc). My question is what hoses can I either cap off or just pull completely? I have pictures of my engine bay, with the Hitachi gone. I would appreciate it if someone could label them.

    Well depends on if you want a brand new one or not. The WRX would be the fastest, and they do have automatic ones (CVT). If you want to mod the car but keep it reliable, you should probably only do bolt-ons. (Exhaust, intake, etc) The main question is: Do you want a brand new car?
