MR_Loyale Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Lifter tick? Try some seafoam on the oil. About 1/4 bottle drive 50 miles and change oil. 8 bucks it may be worth a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Since this thread is a Continuation of ~► This, I kindly suggest you to follow our advice first, and drain that ATF+Oil mixture, change the filter and pour fresh 20W~50 oil on your subie's EA82 engine, prior to spend money on another engine, because maybe that's all that it needs... Kind Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee2 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) I can only recommend trying to find the source of the knock. You mentioned a loose timing belt in your other post. Here's a similar video with a similar noise caused by a bad timing belt tensioner. The comments on Youtube for this video may be helpful to your problem. To find more information search this forum and google for "ea82 engine knock". Edited February 26, 2016 by Dee2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) diagnose the noise. another 25+ year old motor isn't likely to be show room quiet either. www.car-part.com i've bought EA82's on ebay Edited February 25, 2016 by grossgary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firehawk618 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Drive her till she blows is my vote. Just make sure you have AAA for a tow.Comb craigs list, there seems to be tons of EA82 Subaurs for cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubaruWagon87 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Change the oil, bang on it with a hammer, I dunno it's an ea82 it'll probably be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jread Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 If it ends up blowing I've got one... It occasionally gets lifter tick when its really cold. In Vancouver BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyhorse001 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Mechanic's stethescope is your friend. If you get knock at the head, lifter tick. It will be annoying, but not harmful. searching tick of death (tod) you should find some cures If its in the block, rod knock. Still annoying, but driveable till it lets go. Could be a day, week, or a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaytee5211 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Found a spun bearing in my ea82 and just got a newly rebuilt ea82 for cheap. Swapped it in over the weekend and problem solved.
