  1. i was checking coolant flow with the cap at a gas station the other night and at one point i saw a bunch of little bubbles in the coolant does this mean my head gaskets are shot the car consumes almost no coolant but it did have over heating issues when i bought it a raditor that wasn't welded shut fixed that

  4. i dunno i am planning to tear down my spare enging this weekend the get it machined and rebuild it so i really only need to pull a few more months out of it also now i have a giant coolant leak yay occasionally it idles fast but that is it
  5. xt-6 i am planning to trubo charge it but i have to replace the engine first either way i cannon tell when it is blowing smoke i have seen it smoke once it had been sitting for a week waiting for a new alternator it has a small oil drip but that is like a drop a day nothing comes out while the engine is running
  6. you can add 50 hp with flame decals they make your car way faster too
  7. i burn 1-2 quarts a month and power wise it just doesn't have the guts it should i mean their is no pull what soever once you leave second and it takes over 2 miles straight level road to break 100 and it won't go over 105
  8. i did that with my xt-6 takes about ten minutes of your time to uninstall the drive shaft
  9. evrey one thank you i will try the oil trick the next warm day i am pretty sure it is valves because the last time my car sat for more than a week there was allot of blue smoke the first 10 seconds or so i ran it edit: nevermind i won't be trying the oil trick when i read the article it says it won't work on subaru engines
