Look on the bright side, you have a hydraulic lifter motor that don't require valve adjustments. 85 was the last year they did the seats. This is on the top of the page and is an invaluable resource: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/brats/Brats.pdf

All trouble lights came on

Don't put off replacing the alternator or you will end up paying for a tow truck and then doing the replacement. -

Let's see some pics of that UK Brat. -

I had mice eat through my crank sensor not once, but twice! Then I left a bag of Werther's Candy in my Brat and there is still pieces of shredded golden wrappers in there. -
If I recall correctly, it addresses this issue in your owner's manual to be normal.

What is that about a 95 Legacy? Yes, I laughed very hard. -

I can't wait to hear what one of these sounds like with an opened up exhaust. -
Jordan, looks good. Also looks like your regular OEM headlights are in really good shape. You got in day time pics?

I wondered that for awhile myself, when I took a more in depth look at my Weber setup; I found it to be disconnected and removed it and made for a good tarp weight for the parts Brat.

Wonder how is it when driving on the highway and the wind hits you from the side.

Bheinen74, I think we should trade Brats. Wish you guys would send the snow my way, we just hammered with tornadoes.

I'll add my bit of misfortune. Took the Brat out Saturday and parked and went into a store. Came back out and there was coolant everywhere, looked to be coming from my Brat. Babied it back home and parked it, am hoping I didn't have a headgasket go bad. That next day, the Legacy starts making a wheel bearing noise. Then I fail my calculus test. I can't win for losing. -
Here I go. This is the most snow we have gotten here this year.

Lug nuts are tight. When I started driving the Legacy again, I originally thought this side's wheel bearing was on its way out. That later turned out to be nothing more than a loose axle nut and that fixed all vertical movement. I will have my dad look at it with me on Sunday. This wheel bearing crap drives me nuts, I had just bought one the other day and since I didn't need it I took it back; looks like I will be buying that $80 thing back. Anyone have a hub and rotor with the bearing already in it laying around?

I at first thought it was a wheel bearing myself but I did the vertical wheel play test and there was no movement. I also thought it might have been a gravel stuck in the tire but there was nothing there as well. Ive never had a bearing be good one second then the next second it make noise, my understanding was they are a gradual thing. I also had the hub off of it about two months ago and bearing looked good, even had adequate grease. CV boots are not busted, could they be going bad on the inside?

Auto, FWD. I can jerk the steering wheel and it will quit for a second and then start right back again. I believe the axle was replaced a long time ago back when my grandmother drove it more; the car is at 217K. The sound just started all of a sudden while I was driving, and my experience with wheel bearings is that it is a gradual process before they make noise. It truly sounds like something hitting, but I know how hard it is to diagnose this crap online. It truly sounds like a brake pad dragging, but not. Thanks guys.
