  1. IMHO it's a bad fuel filter or fuel, or air filter could also be timing :wtf:
  2. reminds me of 2 different vehicles and the same problem! the rx would have intermittent power, but only after I opened and closed the door, turns out it was a bad connection with a fuse link, iirc, the green one opposite end of the black one the brat, dead unless I run a wire from the alternator B+ terminal to the battery, which also has the car white wire? if it will start, but not charge, the 2 terminal connector on the alt may be disconected if it will show 18+, you are running from the alt
  3. "do u know where i can buy exaust for an ea 82 wagon? i need the complete exaust system" Here! it's in good condition, 2" from Y back to tail with a glasspack in stock location. you supply the manifold gaskets also fits brat
  4. so where does it go on to the ea82 turbo?, it looks like the exhaust crossover blocks the port
  5. Bump! since I have to create the maf sensor to turbo inlet line, it's time to get rid of the crap, canister must go, but how?
  6. are the sensors working? crankshaft position, tps, distributor communication? the green connectors are part of a cycle test, should have more going on than the fuel pump
  7. it broke at the flange where it connects to the turbo inlet, and so what do I do now? at where the clamp tightenes the brittle rubber 1. repair it with silicone 2. find a stock replacement unit 3. build something from the hardware store?
  8. completely remove all the hood latch crap, then install hood pins!
  9. I use a IIRC 17mm 6pt socket and wratchet or 6pt wrench and a hammer to tap the tool to loosen, it works, BTDT
  10. I need more clearance for the rear tires 195/60 R15 to fit without interference when loaded and I hit bumps, accelerate, or corner I only have about 1.5" from top of tire to bottom of wheel arch The question is should I lift it or swap on the rear adjustables form the '85 wagon :cool: lift costs money, but the adjustables I have. The real reason for the car is going through the snow
  11. what's the trick to removing the rotor when it's stuck on the shaft? I did remove the screw! '89 RX
  12. changed the oil, and the TOD went away, it wasn't even on the stick, so I changed to 15w40 changed the sparkplugs to NGK bpr6ey-11, v power, the old ones were worn out and made the car run like crap. I'll be heading west within the hour, it's currrrrently 7:48, just woke up. my # is 515-577-5120 your PM box is full
  13. a number and an address would be great, as I will be in the area, and ..........
  14. with one of my crazy ideas I got to thinking would a ricer/ k/n clamped on to tubing be good, or would a paper cone clamped on to the same tubing be better? gaols: easily serviced -- must withstand dirt roads and fieldwork without getting too dirty allow sufficient airflow -- no choke boxes
  15. http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:7o9JTakricsJ:www.scuderiaciriani.com/rx7/oil_filter_study/+oil+filter+study&hl=en&client=opera the site seems to be down, but google cache worked I use only purolator filters, any of their versions are good, it all depends on where you go!
  16. it would be extremely easy to do! remove the 4wd switch and substitute a momentary contact switch, the old one is continuous -- whch would cause problems reroute the wires for the start function from the ignition switch to the new 4wd switch
  17. what actually works to increase the torque output from a ea82T?? I'm sure enough of you have done trial and error, that we can learn from your mistakes and successes.
  18. since it can be a long drive, I would like to break it up by meeting a few! sure would beat sleeping in the car! first leg of the trip: DC area to Reading PA http://layover.truckmiles.com/prodrivf.exe?&d1=179948&d2=140175&AvoidToll=&BorderOpen=&PerMileRate=0.0000&Resultsin=Miles&RouteMethod=Truck_practical&Source=ProMiles&mpg=5.50&load_worth=0&my_cut=100.000&opcost=0.250&Latitude=39.64987&Longitude=-76.68475&DisplayWidth=283184&Print=Printable%20Version from there I want to head west to visit MilesFox. it would be nice to find some place to crash for the night somewhere in the middle I will probably be going along this route: http://layover.truckmiles.com/prodrivf.exe?&d1=140175&d2=186449&AvoidToll=&BorderOpen=&PerMileRate=0.0000&Resultsin=Miles&RouteMethod=Truck_practical&Source=ProMiles&mpg=5.50&load_worth=0&my_cut=0.000&opcost=0.000&Latitude=41.44455&Longitude=-81.89139&DisplayWidth=1161698&Print=Printable%20Version from there it's time to make my way back home in central IA along this route:http://layover.truckmiles.com/prodrivf.exe?&d1=186449&d2=41260&AvoidToll=&BorderOpen=&PerMileRate=0.0000&Resultsin=Miles&RouteMethod=Truck_practical&Source=ProMiles&mpg=5.50&load_worth=0&my_cut=100.000&opcost=0.250&Latitude=42.37543&Longitude=-90.89227&DisplayWidth=537406&Print=Printable%20Version here's the catch: I will be driving from DC area NOV 16 in this '89 RX http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=44427 must be home by bedtime sunday nov. 20
  19. BUMP! as some may be looking for the ea81 to ea82 swap
  20. idle adjustment is easy! in the middle lower part front side of carb, just about where the alt belt runs, there is a long slotted screw left cw faster
  21. depending on how big your toolbox is, you may get lucky!
  22. air flow meter voltage between terminals B and D 1984 thru 1986 1.6 +/- 0.5v 1987 on 2 to 4v E battery source B -- output voltage A -- variable resistor D -- Ground F -- Self-cleaning C Ground -- connects to ECU found on the VG30 engine B Battery source C -- Ground D -- Output voltage A -- Variable resistor found on the CA18ET
  23. DON't!. embrace the opportunity! it is nice to have one key for the ignition and one key for all other locks for many reasons! 1. lock the car with the engine running -- mostly for diesels 2. valet the rest let your imagination run
