  1. Funny you should say that as you replied to me about finding the wrong size threads in my adaptor , saying I had the wrong kit,lol. I ended up drilling and tapping 8mm threads.
  2. if all that fails the actual guage can be faulty. I've seen it happen recently
  3. In Australia in my little town we had a heap of subarus doing this, mine included. Bad fuel plus crappy gasket kits can clog little lines in the carby. Only solution was soak carby in cleaner and install paper gaskets. Mine stopped that and just started running crap so eventually I put a weber 32/36 dgv and I'm definately not going back. They are really simple to work on and the engines sounds much healthier.
  4. running 13's with weber I get 28-34 highway. Running 14's seemed to eat more gas. But is everyone calculating for bigger tyres?
  5. Rocks, mud, water, grass. But where oh where is the sand,salt more sand? Anyone beach it without timing belts?
  6. sometimes it pays to check the float height as the hitachi are quite sensitive to it. I've had bad mileage off and on with hitachi and just recently swapped to weber. I'm definately not going back. greg
  7. Ah. thought so, my throwout bearing is stuffed anyway but I have noticed more slop in the system without the spring. 2wd subarus aren't very common around here, any idea where it should be hooked up. thanks for your help, greg
  8. I couldn't undo the cable on my hill holder so I cut it off at the clutch end. The manuel says the hill holder was part of the return spring setup. Can I run without it or do I rig up a small return spring? thanks greg
  9. You guys rock! I hate those ##$$%%## covers. Hadn't heard of anyone doing this but was considering at least splitting the bit behind the pulley
  10. I'm in Aus and redline weber doesn't exist. Had to go the new thread option better anyway as have nice big 8 mill bolts now. next job is get it above the aircon. ahhggrr. thanks guys
  11. thanks, I think your right this is the second time i've gone back
  12. Hi guys, i have searched everywhere but can't find any info. I have redline adaptor plate and the studs in my ea 82 manifold are smaller than the ones in the adaptor kit. Should I tap bigger threads or use smaller studs? pros cons? thanks
  13. you guys rock. thanks heaps. Bottom line I can run with one line till summer or I get a round to it
  14. hey guys, Im in the process of putting in 32/36 dgv carb into ea 82. I only have one fuel line in that elbow. Is that normal? What happens to the return line already there for the hi carappy
  15. my 86 leaked out cam cover gasket on both sides and had a stuck pcv valve. It seemed to use oil about the same but when I fixed those I don't use any
