Don't waste your time or money on a flush. If that is the original radiator, it is time to replace it. OEM style rads are only about $110-$125. The Would have me a bit worried, that would be an indicator of oil in your A/F, and that would indicate a head problem. Also, that may explain the excessive oil consumption. I'd start with a compresion test, then move into the rad. Later, Tim

Dude, it is heartless to post pics like that!!!!!! I want one now:slobber: . I like the detail work you put into the engin bay (painted lines for the carbin can etc) Later, Tim

As long as it was in the ring gear it should have fallen into the bottom pan. Tim

There's nothing for it to catch on, it should be down in the pan under the F/W. I'd just listen over the F/W the first time you start it. A metalic screaching sound would be a good indicator that it was hung up on something. If there is no noise, let it be. Later, Tim

Sweet!!! Was Erez there???? From the land of a million Subbies:) . Later, Tim

Hey Kurt, If you come this far North, you are sure welcome here too!!! Just drop me an Email and I'll get you our number if you don't still have it. Have a safe trip, Tim

Agreed, Mark has done me well on a deal too!!! Tim

Hey Caleb, remember your first week on the board????? Just giving you a bad time $ubaroo 'cause your new . We call it the "Micky Mouse" gasket from it distinctive shape. Later, tim

Sooooooooo what happened???? I got an Email from Jim that the cops showed up, are we going to get the details or are you guys all in the slammer????? I really hope everything is okay out there. Have a good one, tim

I just boutgh two from the dealership, they weren't very much mony like $17 and $22. Of course if you use the "T" word (turbo) they'll add on a 28% upcharge (J/K). Check with them and see or go to www.1stsubaruparts.com Later, Tim

I wish I could, but you guys have fun. Tim

I'm with Nicky. There are just so many to choose from, the SVX did cross my mind first, but that would just be one of many. Now that my Hatch has a sterio, it is definately my most favorite owned Subby.

I used a small piece of nylon screen and JB Weld. I used the sceen to create a nest for the JB Weld, and I applied two coats. It has held on two intakes so far with out any problems. Later, Tim

If you use the universal cable mounting kit, don't cut the end of the cable. Just take a propain tourch to it. It is lead and will leave just enough to keep the cable from fraying. Tim

Don't break the fluid seal anywhere unless you bring someone to help you bleed the brakes. It shouldn't be neccesary, but it can make it easier to turn the caliper in if you remove the bleeder. Tim

Check the drop and rise of the float also.You may recognize this "tool" from granies sewing box, it is a "hem" measurer from walmart apx. $.89!!!

VERY nicely done gentlemen!!! How about the power plant to move that thing???

How tight did you torque the PP bolts???? Should only be something like 11-15 flbs. If you over tighten it, the fingers suck in and you wont get much contact. Tim

Please tell me that's not camo duct tape...LOL. If it is you have way to much time on your hands. On the other hand, it does look cool. Kind of like the new Jar-head uniforms:D . I see your from MN, it could also be serving as "flexable" body panel filler too!!! Later, Tim

WHAT????? No gumbo roads at your meet???? :lol:

Righty tighty, lefty loosy..... . Crawl under the OB and see if it has the same ring nut. Later, tim

Aquired under very unfortunate circumstances, but we love it like one of our own:) "RADIO" Hatch Patrol's the only ones who will have us;) . Later, Tim

Thanks for the kind words, it was really not a big deal. Like I told Emily "we're Subaru people, it's what we do". They did get back to me and they were very greatfull. It's a nice feeling being able to help someone out. Later, Tim

Yup, I just ordered the whole kit again. Now I know the limits of the clutch, you know what they say about expensive lessons:rolleyes: . 5spd. Tim

I just pulled the clutch out of my Hatch, VERY NASTY!!!! Here's a shot of the Clutch and PP............. Six month old LUK, But after what I put this one through, I just ordered another one Later, tim
