91SubeJusty4x4

what the hell is that?

Well there was quite the big hole I found behind the exhaust manifold and then it started up even with the hole and pretty much no oil it was crazy!

Well coming off 405 to the 520 towards seattle, all of a sudden loud rattling sound and then boom! gigantic cloud of smoke behind me, and lose power. Got it towed home last night, large amount of oil all over the tow truck. Look this morning to see what happened and found the damn block cracked near the header. THIS REALLY PISSED ME OFF! Im stressed out enough with my father dying and school, and now this bull************, looks like I'm out of the subie world.

bump, anyone else got suggestions or am i a lost cause?

bump, someone please help

So my justy has been acting weird since I've gone through two timing belts in two months (LONG STORY DON"T ASK LESS YA REALLY WANNA KNOW). 1st off when I start the vehicle it sometimes takes a few times cuz somewhere between the starter and flywheel something is grinding. I put the starter in myself, a rebuilt from shucks about 3.5 months ago when the timing belt broke the first time. The issue is the flywheel was replaced last June '05 along with clutch, etc. So any ideas why it is grinding? Classic crappy stuff from shucks? ND: My left headlight only after a long trip, 5 hours from Pullman to Seattle, and it was dim. I replaced the bulb and it remained dim. Short or anything specific someone can tell me to check? 3rd: Check engine light is flashing, how do I read/diagnose what it is telling me? 4th: Anyone know how to do the timing for this vehicle? I have the Chilton's but it is not very specific on what to hook my timing light up to or plug off, etc. I know about the green connectors under the dash has to be unplugged but thats about it. Is there more or is that it? I am quite the noob to subies just thought I might get some help from you guys whom know alot more then me. I bought this from an ex member of this board who owned a wagon he totaled, hatch he lifted and sold, and the justy i presently own. Well any help would be quite apreciated.
