Soobadooba Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2439509185&category=6783 Drove it home without incident (about 250 miles). Interior is in really good shape (in my opinion) and the exterior seems pretty good. Exhaust is loose where the cat meets the Ypipe. Started making a fonky noise from the drivetrain (axle?) just before I got home. Oil pressure is low... motor prolly gonna hafta have a rebuild or replace (I think I hear knocking but the exhaust is sooo loud):boohoo: It'll do 80 as-is tho:D Cheers:drunk: -Louis- '91 Loyale 4wd 5spd Wagon still under evaluation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 NE car with little/no rust? Unheard of! Great score man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soobadooba Posted November 30, 2003 Author Share Posted November 30, 2003 Yup, passenger side was 180 out and they screwed up the ignition timing as well as the firing order. I'm probably going to need some advice from you guys (and gals)in the near future on some details since I'm new to Subarus. Stay tuned:-) -Louis- '91 Loyale 4wd 5spd Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerFahrer Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Buahaha! I like this: "brought it to half rump roast mechanic and spent $350" I am amazed that it drove home with a timing belt 180-deg off and with a disty off too!!! If that isn't a testament to the unstoppable nature of an old Subie, I don't know what is!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soobadooba Posted November 30, 2003 Author Share Posted November 30, 2003 Nah, It wouldn't start when I got there. I straightened out the timing issues etc. right there on his property before I drove it home. He just left looking kinda disgusted:D I don't know if he was watching when I started it and drove it away. -Louis- '91 Loyale 4wd 5spd Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
