nipper Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 What work has been done on the car in the last 6 months? nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubaruGoddess Posted June 20, 2006 Author Share Posted June 20, 2006 I was going to say it kinda sounds like it is not firing on one cylinder.. or firing out of order. It could also be a radiator fan going south.. I have had radiator fans that shook the living hell out my cars. If you would like me to take a look at it and see if we can narrow it down a little bit, I don't mind. ( elijafir@cox.net ) -Eli- That would be great. Can you PM me with some details?

Might be something Im missing. how about a timing belt. If the timing belt has never been touched you can probably rule out the loose main/crank pully. Start the car and look at all the belts, they should all track staright and no wobbel. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubaruGoddess Posted June 20, 2006 Author Share Posted June 20, 2006 Yes, I knew I was forgetting something.... The belts are fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Yes, I knew I was forgetting something.... The belts are fine cool so we can rule out the pully being loose. I'll wait till you roatate the tires to add my 2 cents nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubaruGoddess Posted June 20, 2006 Author Share Posted June 20, 2006 I'm learning how to do that either this week or next week in school. I want to do it myself, so we'll see:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I'm learning how to do that either this week or next week in school. I want to do it myself, so we'll see:) The possabilities are broken belts, cupped tires, or lost wheel weights. Others are bent rims and dented rims. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubaruGoddess Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 Ah, ok, so I took it to a pro. Got a rotation, balancing, and alignment (partial). I say partial because the camber is pretty screwed up from my little run off the road incident. Something needs to be fixed in there. I don't have the money, so I told them I'd worry about that when I get new tires. But with the B & R and fixing the toe, it's is sooo much better to drive. Not perfect, but tolerable now.
