Hi Jay, I'm doing just what Commuter just mentioned. I got a "great deal" on a 97 OBW with a bad headgasket (didn't know it was bad at the time:rolleyes: ) But I'm putting in a CCR long block and I'll take alot of comfort in knowing exactly what I have under the bonnet. If your looking at economy, don't get too excited, you'll get between 22-28mpg depending on how you drive it. As for reliability, go for it, these things eat snow . Later, Tim

Subystyle is the guy your looking for, and yes we gave him a lot of heck at first but his car turned out nice. Welcome aboard, Tim -
Get a socket that is the same diameter as the bearing. Hold the socket on the bearing and tap the socket!! Those bearings can be bought by them selfs and aren't to expensive IIRC. Better luck on the next one. Tim

I guess for all you superior imagination and visulization skills you can't see this -> and know that your just getting a little razing. How about putting your pride away and ask dad how to use your equipment??? If you want to sit around the camp fire and tell stories that's fine, but the world has a lot more to offer now and that includes digital photos from anywhere to anywhere in the world at the click of a button!!!

Austin just left from ourt place. We had a real nice visit, the girls even took to him:lol: . At this point he's only about 3 hours away. I'm glad we got to meet you Austin. Later, Tim -
Okay, I got the new lifters in my car and that seemed to have a small benefit on my milage. Before I fixed them I ordered a couple of air correction jets, 175, 180. I changed the fuel jets to P:160 S:140 and changed the air jets to P:175, and S:170. It was just about right on the money with the baseline setting!! Gave the fuel/air jet 2.25 turns out and the idle got about .75 turn. It seems to be running good, just a little hint of a stumble on early acceleration, I attribute that to possibly being just a touch lean. I'll let you know what the milage does soon. Later, Tim UPDATE: I can't believe how much better it is, 20MPG!!!! and it seems like it may be a little better on the second tank with this configuration. I seem to have alot more secondary responce now too. I do need to work on the peddle, I have about 4mm of unused throtle:brow: .

When we went through Bozeman we started playing the "Subaru game" with in a block of entering town there were so many that we couldn't keep up!!!! There was one small car lot that must have had a dozen EA82 Subbies on it. They get my vote for capital in the US. Israel gets my vote for international Subby capitol. Tim
