  1. I have stripped out a nut once (on the axle, guys)
  2. You need to pull the disty back out and then set the number one piston at TDC, on the compression stroke. You can put your finger in the hole and feel for the air coming out, that tells you its the compression stroke. Once you have it there and if you havent messed with the spark plug wires, you can set the disty rotor where the number one sparkplug wire is on the cap. This should get you close enough to get it running and then time it.
  3. If I dont have access to a air compressor for my air gun, I usually take my 1/2 drive breaker bar and slip a 3ft long pipe over it. And I hurf down on that sucker as tight as I can, just making sure I line up the hole for the cotter pin. Havent had one loosen up for quite some time now.
  4. I have a 86 GL-10 Turbo Wagon with the pushbutton single range 4wd. Its a good hiway/daily driver car, have never had any problems with the tranny.
  5. The cone washer could be wore out and sometimes the outer washer can be placed back on the axle stub the wrong way. Yes, there is a right and wrong way.
  6. Bring it up to my place, I'll take a look at it.
  7. I think the problem is directly related to the number of Soobs in your area. If there isnt that many around, they have nobody coming in to buy parts. Therefore nobody in the store knows sqaut about the cars. I havent had any problems when I go to a store that handles a large variety of autos. I stay away from Smucks and Autozoned, they are only good for buying oil and accessories. Napa by far is one of the better chain stores, altho a little pricier than most.
  8. I saw the car a month ago over at XT6.net. The owner has done a great job on the car considering what kind of shape it was in when he got it.
  9. Might need to clarify if its a 3 door or a 4 door. They each have different spoilers.
  10. That would be Qman. Good score, can I have your old one?
  11. Got to come get em...................
  12. Look at the bid history, will be interesting to see who gets it. Andy, the high bidder is in your area, we know who the other one is
  13. Sportwagon.......is that a Turbo? The wiring diagram in the FSM is 3 or 4 pages, each one for a different model.
  14. With all the chatter on the I-5 corridor, its going to be hard to find a channel that can be used exclusively. Most of the lower channels are long distance bounces and the 10-26 channels are local, mostly. Maybe the upper 20's might work?
  15. As far as I know, its never been done. The only way to do a mod is with a remote pump. Dont think it would do any good.
  16. Ah gee :-p Its been a pleasure, I know how much the car means to you.
  17. I've never heard of a wiring harness (Subaru) doing this. Did you mod it or tap into it for any reason?
  18. Nope. But its obvious he doesnt know about the USMB, yet.
  19. He most likely had problems trying to install the belts
  20. Congrats! Your XT6 will run for another 100K now (without overheating anyways)
  21. Mine isnt made for speed
  22. Have you checked the T-Belts yet? I wouldnt go much further after doing all the filters without checking them.
  23. Hey, wheres the window(s)? Sure looks dark in there :cool: Is that vinyl siding or wood? Looks good Corky.
