backing plates- those behind the rotors??? when i went for inspection the guy told me to replace those on rear end, i couldnt get those and a dealership gave me a price of 200$:-\. the thing that was "rusted out" was a kind of sheild, to "protect" the rotor. the back plate looked good,so i just took a big screwdriver and got rid of the rusted part.so check out if it's the plate rusted or just the litlle thing around the rotor. take care

my check engine light is on(92 legacy), i got a HAYNES repair manual for the legacys (1990-98). according to the trouble codes its: Code 11 (1 long flash, 1 short flash)- crank angle sensor/circuit- "(problem)no reference pulse" Code 24 (2 long flash, 4 short flash)- Air control valve- "(problem) open or shorted air controle valve circuit" of course therse a note like "see section 5" or" se chapter 4" but thers not a word about those two problems. I dont wanna go to dealership, that costs money,... i'm couting on youre help take care

on my '92 legacy EJ22,when i take sharp left or right turns, not even going fast(20 mph),theres a huge cloud of smoke behind me :-\ ,once i go straight its ok, and when i rev it up the blue(oil) cloud is up in the air and the car is burning lots of oil like 500 ml(pint?) per 200 miles, so thats not good, i've put in some " smoke reducer + stop leak" but it dosent work,.. i'll be taking the engine out, because i need to do the clutch, any ideas what i can change in the engine while its out?? take care

hey Paul, sounds great:) from where i'll be staying its like a up to 3 hours drive, and i think my legacy will make it, it made it from NH to PA, 500 miles in 2 days , so if You'll come out with a precise date i'll see what i could do with my plane ticket. thanks guys, take care

meeting, ha?? thats ok with me, as long i'm in US, begining of september would be nice ,and if my legacy don't fall a part,........ take care

yeah, those are the metal ones:( i was thinking of putting a rubber hose on the metal one but theres not much space to do that... what im thinking about is to take an angle grinder and just cut out some metal underneath the seets, and take it from there, or fliping the car on a side and then pull out the gas tank,... what to you think about that?? thanks and take care

i got a '92 legacy wagon, awd 5spd man, 157 000 miles. i got it for 400$, some rust. i got it running today after 8 months. the problem is that the fuel line comming out from the fuel pump is roted out, and its leaking gas like hell :-\ , i've called a shop and they want 400-500$ just for the job, i'm thinking of getting another legacy, because this one has like 2500$ in parts (last year). so i need advice,...... thanks and take care

Loyals are the best! i have '89, 5 spd D/R, w/ LSD, EA 82 MPFI, i've been driving it for almost 3 years, havent put many miles(6000), but 2.5 year 100% off-road(and my top speed was 60 mph ), i had to change 2 things: the alt and the radiator(after hitting some trees/bushes). and other than that it's one of best cars(only russian military trucks are better, but not in everything ). so i'm after loyals!!! take care

hey! it's good to hear from you Paul!! well, i'm not in US of the A, but my godfathers BMW died/smashed, so he's looking for a car for him/me. so i said SUBARU he's up in NH, and have some hills, so 4WD is the way to go.i'll be in states around end of may,but he'll buy the car before i get there.so if you have something interesting let me know, i'll check out e-bay etc. but i prefere to make deal with you take care

hello, i'm looking for a car, New England area,i'm thinking about an hatch, but a station wagon will be ok, and what are the youngest XT's? '91,'92? what would You suggest? thx

As fas as I know, 5 spd D/R- 3 marks and 25 spline, because i got some Cv's and they are 23 spline, and i'm out of CV's,....

In Poland its almost on every gasstation, if the car isnt diesel,95% is on LPG,i'll see about posting some pics,but from VW polo, cuz my soobe is on the road, take care

i haven't done that at my place, because thats illegal!i got my 89' loyal converted to LPG but in a shop(it costed me like 500$),its a MPFI so its sweaching to LPG automaticly,its burning more LPG than gas, but its 2 times cheaper so i'm happy,the spark-plugs a a bi** to unscrew, but you can do it,i have no more info as far as instaling the thing, but as far as driving on LPG im in the topic, take care

I've 185/70 13R on my 89 loyal and they are working fine, one more thing you should check is the rim, make sure they're 5 J(wide, those are the numbers on the rim), because the older ones were 4,5 J,so it's not good to put wider tires, the middle of the tire will get bald before the rest of it, tire would look like this ( , and you want it to be like this [ , take care

thats bad news,.... but i can help you out . if you are going to set up a date for an army to come at your place, i won't play soldier of fortune;) . let me know when and i'll try to be at your place, take care

My Mom's car died, and i've got a job, need to find her a car, first car for her: justy,second: justy, third: justy. I've heard something about justy's drive chain(the 4WD) that in some year models it was going to crap, my questino is what year should i look for, and what is gettin used up/breakin on justy's.for any help/advice i'm greatfull. thanks and take care

yes, it's converted to RWD, i took apart front CV's so i have only the very end of it so that i can put the disc brake etc. and i was driving in 4WD, but only the rear wheels were pushing/turning,GREAT FUN:D take care

try checkin the tranny moutings, i've had this problem on my other car when i've smashed into tree.good luck with that, take care

check out my post at subaru marketplace

is it MPFI or carb? i have mpfi and it's starting ALWAYS on the first turn,... just wait 10 sek. for the fuel pump to get the gas in right place and it goes( in -20 C too ) so check the spark plugs and wires , etc. good luck

thanks, i'll do that.
