Thank you. I’ll get the tank to almost empty and pull the hose and see how I’m looking. Does anyone know the inner diameter of the hose? THANK YOU for the part number. Is there anywhere that stocks it anymore? Otherwise I’m looking at getting a general fuel rated hose and making it fit. How would YOU fix/replace it?

Hello everyone! After a long drive I smelled fuel and found the tube close to the exhaust pipe wet with fuel. Freaked me out as fuel is scary, the hose looks very… specific.. but also could be some type of coolant style. It looks like a radiator hose and looks to go from the bottom of the metal filler neck and travel to the tank. Anyone know if I can get a fuel rated coolant hose that will work for this or is there a better solution? See my glorious photo. And thank you

It’s a dream to pile into my ‘81 B.R.A.T. and trek slowly at 55mph all the way to this. That would be SO cool. Or I get rich and get a flatbed trailer and tow it there with my wilderness.

Did you get it apart? Pics!

My ‘81 dropping by to get parts for my ‘23

DUDE! This is awesome!! What model roof rack was it and did you have to get any special fittings to get it to attach to the roof? Looks SWEET!!!

I forgot to update this post, but about 3 weeks ago I removed the bolts holding the glass and rocked it out of place and was able to thread the nut onto the rod and got the door back together. THANK YOU EVERYONE for your help! What a thing!

Hello USMB! Over the years you guys have given me so much. I thought I would offer to give a little something back! I have stacks of early 80s manuals and diagrams from the Subaru factory service manuals. As well as entire dealership part guides for 1980 1981 in 1982. Possibly some 1979. If you need a diagram, if you need a part number, if I can find it in my books I’ll get it for you! Just want to help like everyone else has helped me

Thank you! This job is stressing me out. I pull engines, I don’t do window regulators.... and headliners/weatherstripping. *shudder*

Can I lower the regulator without the glass attached? Will it undo anything or unalign anything?

Thank you my friend! This is my plan! I appreciate your response. Thank you

Any tips on not destroying my glass?

Per the description below, I need to remove the front door glass. How the heck do I do that???

Went to open my door, and the door handle just moved freely like it wasn’t connected to anything. Found out the little rod had broken it’s nut off of the bottom and the mechanism kind of fell apart. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the rod back into the little hole. I see how it works. I have the doorhandle in my hand and the rod in my hand but I can not physically position my hand into the spot I need to to drop the plastic piece into the hole it needs to go into. Something else needs to come apart or something else needs to go together in a specific way for this to work. And I don’t know what that is. Does the window need to come out? Does the latch need to be disconnected? Has anyone replace their doorhandles and can tell me how to disassemble/reassemble this part? I am at my wits end. My shredded hand thanks you.

So today my little rod broke off (the nut snapped) and now my outer door handle has nothing attached, leaving me to reach inside to open from the ...inside. I have since seen what I need to do, but having a hard time getting the rod back onto the door handle. Any disassembly instructions? I hope I don’t need to remove the glass. Thank you!

So, with research (thank you USMB!) I found that I need this little rod. #4. Anyone have a spare? Thank you!

You should be able to choose the file size when you go to upload. Choose a medium file and it'll drop the size by about 1/10. PM me for help, I wanna see those photos!

Do you know where the main body grounds are? Or other most important ones that let go first?

Hello! My ‘81 Brat GL 1800 has a vapor separator behind the passenger seat behind the bed panel. Mine is crumbling and is now fused together with epoxy. Hurray! I’m looking for a “new” one or I’m curious if there is part interchangeability with another car. It is listed as subaru part number “6420571001” or “642057100” Shown as Detail “O” in diagram. Thank you! My Brat thanks you. The environment thanks you!

Curious! I randomly had my tach and gauges fail out in the morning. I took my fuse cover off, things looked good and put it back on. Gauges worked again, haven’t failed since. Was that maybe the same thing?

I love you. Thank you!

Hello! So I think I’ve got a bit of a grounding issue. When my extra manual-switch-driven fan turns on and I turn my headlights on, the gauge reads above half, if i shut them both off, the gauge drops immediately. (Well, a few seconds) I cleaned the single terminal of the temp sensor. Didn’t really help? But now I’m looking for body grounds. Anyone have a photo with grounding locations? I’d love to clean them up. Or is it something else? On my DeLorean, it was because of resistance due to bad grounds that my temp gauge would read high. Cleaned up a lot of body grounds and it fixed it. I also know my rad is running nice and cool. ideas? Thanks!

I have found at least two modules I’m not sure what they do. He mystery continues. Thank you for the photos!

Cooling system seems awesome, had a bubble in the lines and then going up a steep hill seemed to clear it. Swapped the radiator cap with a fun one with a gauge and now I’ve got a bubble again. Other than that, temp has been great. Now to find the evap issue that keeps me failing smog! They say something between the Filler neck and the engine. Or the tank and the engine. They said everything in the engine is fine. 57? 23?
