We'll go back to Carlisle when they have a redneck section. If you're a VW guy its still a great show. Kit cars your thing? There you go .... But for us to hang out with Volvos and Saabs that really aren't vintage or interesting at all ....phooey! To those who've never gone to Carlisle - it's pretty cool the first time , maybe even once ever other year or so. But once you've seen the old guy and his old Volvo with (???) million miles on it and the few old Italian cars ,etc. it's over. There's nowhere near the number of truely cool Euro-cars there that there used to be. And the field has filled in with too many late model cars that really suck. Cheers! -

intermittant tapping/knocking?
moosens replied to ghost's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Gotta guess you're right - probably one lifter - usually the last one in the line getting too little oil pressure. Oil pressure should be fine but you never know unless you check it. I know I go nuts taking my time and making sure the "mickey mouse" seal and all go in properly. But that doesn't mean something didn't go wrong or just plain wear from a weak seal. If I had the parking I'd buy it back from you and EJ it. Its just one more reason why that car was sold before I'd give up my 2.2 Legacy or my vintage wondercar. Those EA82T's just ain't my first choice , that's for sure. But when I went and purchsed close to $1000 worth of engine and tranny - going JDM - I thought I'd beaten those issues for at least a good length of time. Keep me posted. -

gadd dang , what's up with this car? :-\ Every time I turn around you've got one more issue popping up. Sorry its become a nuisance. You've got me voting for EJ. -
Single range 4wd gear ratios?
moosens replied to 71 Ranger's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Somebody will find that info. Its in the factory service manuals for sure. 1976 is a weird year but otherwise they're all about the same. I'll post back if nobody else gets the info. -
Got a tach. in there? Fancy clock? This is what a '76 GF hardtop has.

Anyone heard of The Vermonster ??

Air's to ya !! We do have the Carlisle Import Kit/Replicar Show third weekend in May every year. We peaked at about 30 vehicles one year but we've tapered off since. I'm there about every other year give or take. Good chance I'll be there this year. It's a huge event for Imported classics and imports in general. You can enter a judged field if you want to or just hang in the non judged general mass - which we all do. For off roading there's a few little spots here and there. Hoping one of you guys up there turns us on to a spot where you don't get shot at or police show up ,etc ... We do hit the Pine Barrens of south Jersey. No real lift required , mosrlt sandy trails and some water crossings , you can go in a standard issue 4wd or even FWD if you stay out of the really soft stuff. Far eastern CT and western RI there's a spot where nobody seems to get bothered. I haven't gotten there yet but one of us here has. Looks like lift required - more true dirt and rocks. South Jersey is flat , this area isn't. Gonna be a horror story of Mud Season up there this year , or at least down here it will be. There's also a huge Mud Meet in Maine - can't recall the name but its fairly generic like MudFest ... something like that. Have fun! Hope to run into you some day. We're trying to plan a day/weekend trip to our friend's place in Grafton VT. Stocked trout pond on their property with a monster that was released a couple of times now. Hoping to hook that sucker , or my son or daughter hook it better yet. Could see us in May , who knows..... Cheers! -
My First Post... 1985 BRAT--Time Capsule!!
moosens replied to mwc951's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Well I understand your points , but that's a good chunk of hobby money. You can thank Grampa for that too. My point is that's one heck of an offer for something with rust. Good luck. -
Hello at all USMB users from Italy
moosens replied to -J.M.G.-'s topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
My email is moosens at yahoo - Hope to talk to you sometime. Who do you pick for this year in MotoGP and Superbikes? I don't think Rossi can do it this year. Looks like the Hondas have something going on. Biaggi - repeat ? Now Checa looks strong. Ciao ! -

With the rust , I'd sell it today and hunt out a rustfree job from the west. But I understand the attatchment. $5G is a really good price considering the rust spots and the current economy. -

Thanks guys. -
Fuel delivery would have to be an issue. Would need some pressure for the MPFI. Stay stock for now untill you get something definite to work off of.

That's right , thanks!!! "T" is just below. My friend wrote it down as I recited it but I know what you mean. Thanks again !!! Logan , I'll ship it possibly today , maybe Saturday. -
You don't need my permission. The seller replied to me saying there's still a few left. Main deal is the seller will only ship for a really high price. Spark !!!

Please check etching of tiny numbers on the driver's side door glass for me. I pulled a glass panel from storage with " D5G3 DOT23 BS5282T" You'll also see the Subaru "boomerang" and more letters/numbers below that I think don't matter. Please post whatever you see . And Logan if you can check your passenger side that might help me too. Thanks! Shawn and all Admins - Fix the "Database Error" crap !!!!!!

eBayer whoever got that rebuilt carb for $25 !!!! Now they're asking $65 .... for the remaining 2 , apparently , that they have. Still not bad. Congrats ! Good job , but you stink !

Rustproofing ! Keep it in your living room. -
Hey Spark, been thinking about you ... seriously! That seller still has those 4WD long exhaust pieces in Columbia. I would love to buy one or two at least and have you grab them and ship them up to me. Still willing? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230149250564&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT moosens at yahoo or PM .... THANKS !!! Paul
