  1. these yours? Subaru wagons make two cars out of the four - $650 (Junction city) pic
  2. jonas

    Finally lifted!!!

    i'm diggin' the yellow rollers!
  3. very nice. i love that chocolate brown color. are those aluminum wheels? whats the mileage? interior pics? never mind. i clicked the link. oh wait, is the one on ebay your old one? if so i restate my questions!!
  4. no multimeter. i should get one, handy tool to have.
  5. don't you mean slow and not quite as slow?? don't know about later years but the EA81's wipers pratically have no diff. between speeds.
  6. bad posi cable. always the simple stuff huh?
  7. i've seen a green w/red hood brat in the same area on 16 between I-5 and the narrows bridge. one of you guys working out there?
  8. since i have my ignition on the collum apart i thought i would install a kill switch for some added security. anyone know which wires i tap? how have you guys done it?
  9. hey no prob. i've got big shoulders i can take it. i do have limited power. i put 2+2 together and came up with this. all my loss is in the ignition. i got everything that you can run w/o having the ign. on. actually i used an '84 ignition switch on my '81 brat that did the same thing but i rememberd too late. so this weekend i'll pop that in and am pretty sure i'kk be good to go. i should have thought more before i posted ty anyway!
  10. welp i'm just gonna have to take my time and finger this out. checked for loose wires, none to be found. cleaned my grounds for good measure. it's something in the ignition system. hope it's not my ignition switch, i hate those! had the ignition switch go out on my brat with similar symptoms. anyway i can usually figure these things out if i just remain calm and think things thru. time for a beer and some dinner.
  11. did a valve adjustment on my '84 wagon. got it all back together, fired her up and was pleased with the results. *side note, recommend valve adjustment to everyone. one of the best,easiest, tune-up jobbies for an EA81 that you can do yourself* anyway, now i get NOTHING! no door buzzer, no lights, no clicking of starter, NOTHING. jumpstarting doesn't even work. i suspect my coil but thought i would ask here.
  12. check your radiator cap. sounds just like what my wagon was doing. no coolant puddles, no steam from tail pipe, no water in oil, but was drinking water like crazy.
  13. i measured the axle on my '81 brat and it is 7.5 inches from boot to boot. not including the actual boots in the measurement, just the exposed metal part of the axle between the boots. hope that helps. *edit* didn't feel like pulling axle to measure the entire thing!
  14. good ideas. just don't let stevie wonder install it for ya next time!
  15. funny. i actually have a nail in my tool box i specifically use for removing pins!
