l75eya Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I've got an intermittent TOD, I really can't nail down what exactly the variables are for when it does tick, and when it doesn't. Sometimes when just starting the car (93 loyale SPFI) it ticks from startup and doesn't stop, sometimes it starts and doesn't tick at all. I've noticed it usually doesn't tick when starting when it is colder out, though my common sense (which may be incorrect) is that this is peculiar because at colder temperatures the oil is thicker, and if it's an oil pressure problem, wouldn't it tick less when it's warmer? Either way, when it isn't ticking, one thing that's sure to make it tick is taking it on the highway (3spd auto) i'm guessing the oil pressure is adequate enough sometimes to prevent it from ticking while driving around town, but when the engine hits higher RPMS, the pressure leak (i'm guessing it's a leak...) keeps it from having high enough PSI to keep those lifters from making any noise. Anyway, long story short, I've called a bunch of dealerships up around here trying to find the seals. They no longer have documentation on the ea82s and don't have part numbers. I was wondering if anybody has the part numbers for all the oil pump seals, please, please please. I've read a BUNCH of threads about TOD and oil pump replacements, but I want to get all OEM seals, and I can't find any part numbers. I've been scouring these forums, I have searched, I'm not looking for a hand out, I don't post too often unless I've got genuine questions. You guys are geniuses and I really need to get these seals changed. And keep my fingers crossed that it fixes the problem. Thanks in advance guys.

bobzilla Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 you can buy the kits from Rock Auto for , like 12 bucks! Kinda a PITA to replace. Did mine a while back and like yours mine still ticks intermitently. Not to worried about it as it seems to be a common issue. Mine does it mostly on start up. I let it warm a bit then bring up the idle and it stops. Just my 2c! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigjimd Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) You, my friend, are the man! Thank you so much! You are welcome. That group doesn't list the oil pump shat seal though. LT does and you might as well replace that while you have it apart. Good luck I hope that cures your tickiness. It shut the daughters car up for about a month. We wound up with all new seals and rebuilt lifters. She's been quiet for a couple of months now. Those cam carrier seals are a hookie deal. Ours were all out of shape and rock hard. KInda cool to have the mechanic that just did the yearly required inspection say he had never seen an old Subie with a clean engine.

idosubaru Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Thanks, just used these #'s to order the seals to help cure my TOD on the 85 DL I picked up 2 weeks ago! if the TOD returns - which it often does - a new oil pump usually cures it.

l75eya Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 That's why I cut to the chase and just swapped in a new one. If you're going to tear it apart anyway, may as well put a new pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyale1993 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I have the exact same issue. I did the seals in mine a couple months ago and still TOD. I am running 5w 30 oil in it right now which is probably part of the problem. If I did it over again I would get a new oil pump. It's frustrating to put in the time to just end up with the same issue. If it lasts another 60 K I will put in a new pump at the next timing belt change along with the cam seals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l75eya Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 What temperature zone are you in. Typically you want to run 10w40 if you're in 20s to 80s f. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyale1993 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Tempatures are in the 20 to 80 f range. Next oil change I'll try 10w40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
