I have a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the cooling (electric) fan won't run, various opinions have been cooling sensor, thermostat, resistor?? Fuse is good I checked that. Hear is what happened the temp gauge went from 210 degrees(normal) up to 240,then the check engine light came on,A/C started blowing warm air, I was at an idle with A/C on. I turned off A/C and jeep and let it sit for awhile. Temp went back to normal,light stayed on. Drove Jeep for 30 miles, light went off and A/C blowing cold again.The fan does NOT come on when A/C is on and I think it is supposed to, any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated I can't afford a mechanic right now. Thanks in advance, Trudy

Hello Gentlemen, I have returned!!!!! Gen 2 core is about an inch larger all the way around and the inlet and outlet pipes are completely different, it would take some fancy mod's to make it work in a gen 1. Just my long lost two cents

AZ Yeah !!!!!!!!
i think Trudys going AZ style in a tan 78 Brat with a 3rd eye:brow: i`m sure gonna miss it:-\ -
I have never been known to give up easily sooo yes it will get replaced if I can find an inner fender or repaired either way it's getting fixed. Might have to duct tape it for the time being LOL
Oooo, that is nasty! Are you planning on repairing it or scrapping it? I'd hate so lose another brat to rust, but if its too far gone, so be it. -
Mod, please move this thread to Historic section, posted in wrong area, sorry!!! Thanks

Source of my water and air flow problem in the interior of the Brat, yuck!!

No hard feelings here Caboo, glad you were able to get some useful parts, post some pics of your body work as you make progress !!

Hey Jon, maybe you should reconsider the hacksaw, they don't call it "hack" for nothing. Go with a dremel !!!!!

I really like "How to Keep Your Subaru Alive". It is simple to use and follow. Good luck !!

Just measured my Gen 1 Brat, bed length 5 ft. 2 inch with tailgate up, with tailgate down it is 6 ft 9 inches.

,Trudy, it's not the Brat, it's the Vermont cheese they're after!Wagons, that cheddar will do it everytime!!!!!
Jon, mouse turds in the face is just plain nasty, I hope you gave them a taste of their own medicine !!
-
my .02 cents, keep the one you have and replace the motor, add a/c. Of course I am prejugdice to the Gen 1

When I got my 78 Brat about 2 years ago it had been sitting for about 10 years in a field. When I opened the hood there was a big field mouse living under the hood where the spare tire went. I also found a big mouse nest inside the air box. When I took the fan out to see what was going on in there I found my second big mouse nest! Mice like Subies I guess.
And who could blame them !!!!:-p

Welcome to the board
. There is a wealth of knowledge with the members of this board and I am sure someone will be able to help you. It might help if you are a little more specific with your problem. Explain what exactly is happening after you turn the key, that will help. Good luck with your subbie and enjoy the board!!! -
Got the steering wheel off without the puller. The trick is to rock back and forth GENTLY. I was trying to pull like hell which didn't do anything but hurt my shoulders !!
-
I changed one once and Moosens told me to use a 5 way painters tool to remove the seal ($4 at hardware store) and a washer approx. the same size as the seal to put it back on to get even pressure around the seal while installing it(.40 cents).It was really easy and it worked.
-
Hey Paul, (Moosens to the rescue again)well I finaly got it off but for everyone else who has trouble I can tell you that the 4 spoke wheels do not have screws but you have to turn the horn pad counter-clockwise 1/4 inch and then pull like hell and it will come off. Thanks so much Paul I would have never figured that out. Now if I could just get the wheel itself off!!!!! (will borrow a puller LOL)
