there is a diagram by subaru junkie in te usrm-miscellaneous the #1 is on the passenger side front, and #2 is driver side front #1 on the cap is the farthest back on the dissty, jusr to the right of the screw/clip, rotate counter clockwise, 1-3-2-4

the blowby may very well be from the pcv. before you consider a rebuild you may want to soalk the cylinders in a solvent to see if it will free up any sticky rings somewhere on the board there is a tread about soaking the rings.....

i think of the loyale as a DL with a tachometer. unlike the dl, the loyale willhave the plugs on the harness for features that didnt come standard, such as power windows, rear speakers, and the map lite

hey if you are handy with a schematic get the haynes "subaru 1600 & 1800" manual. you may have to order it but it has a comprehensive schematic and troubleshooting

this is what the part looks like but dont be surprised that it costs 100 dollars. get one from the yard, the purge comntrol solenoid and egr solenoid are the same thing, any parts car should have 2 make sure the little dookers dont break off!

hey man i just posted a bunch of stuff but i got discnnected!!!! :banghead: anyway i said you will have to graft on an ea82 lower control arm mount so you can use ea82 suspension structure, so that you can fit the xt6/impreza stuff on keep in mind you wont have a parking brake with impreza anyway there is more involved in tire rods and strut caps but it will work. hollar back if you need more detail:banana:

sometimes these same clonnectors will be black depending on model and year

as far as turbos go, if you used the existing motor you can swap on an ea82 turbo and up-pipe. i believe the ea82 is an rhb5? i think its a little bigger than the ea81. anyway it bolts up the same, oil and water lines too look on the top of the page and clicj the USRM repair and modification link, and look inthe miscellaneous section for the ecu code reading procedure

hey man dont let anyone give you a hard time. maybe you get it because your car used to be someone elses. but its YOUR car now! dont sweat it we all have our place around here!

dont know the length or dia without looking it up, but i DO know the thread is 1.00 instead of the 1.25 found everywhere else. the stock bolts have a 14mm head but the aftermarket bolts generally have a 17mm head. as far as the length goes they will be the same length as the ea82 flywheel bolt. maybe m8 for diameter but dont quote me on that, but 14mm bolts on ea82 are m10

if your car is turbo with a 5spd or full time 4AT the legacy/impreza/xt6 axles will fit on the tranny. if its a non turbo, or a turbo with a 3spd AT the axles wont fit on the tranny. BUT you can swap the 23 spline doj from a 3at turbo axle onto the leg/imp/xt6 axles to match a non turbo 5spd this part is key but no one ever mentions it

if yopu swap in an ea82(timing belts) from an 85-86 turbo xt, rx, turbo traction wagon ea82 models it is speculated theat the ecu in the brat and the engine controls on the motor is all plug in and play compatible as far as the tranny it will make a dog of the motor, swap in a 5spd from an ea82 4wd and you will have better gearing for the turbo motor. all the MT parts are bolt-in. ther will be some costom work for the driveshaft, and you will have to drill holes for the rear diff mounting. but MT swaps are standard procedure, all of the swapping will use stock parts for the most part. just knowing what combination of stock parts is the key to putting it all together. really, think of the car as a lego set you can put together any way you like

1. yeah make a write up tat wouldbe good. i myself have thought of using an old ford style hi beam switch 2. if you can make it work that would be very useful for automatic full times as it would make the 4wd more versatile to the needs of the driver

we used a whole carbbed block. the motor went out west and back and never had any problems, pump gas and stock timing

use some silioe spray or wd 40 to help the boots slip on. good ol spit will do if you dont have the beforementioned

i suggested finding a pic on the net and drawing over it with ms paint like i did with this:http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=2074 but anyway once i download a driver for my mustek 1200 UB scanner i can doodle up something....

well depending on how your tranny is geares, the subaru motor has a short stroke and is best in the 2500-4500 rpm range. rpms translate to power the way it was designed in the subaru

well this is what my rx looks like now, minus the lift of course. dammit i need a camera

i dont know, i thonk an rx will look right lifted as long as the proportions are right. say 3 inch and xt6 wheels, or other 14's. hell my rx would make a good candidate, its already part time carb. dammit if i didnt have a picture. but the way i have it it would look right lifted to an extent. maybe lose the front dam if u lift it....

suppose the clutch cable was too tight?

do you mean the heater fan or the radiator fan? turn it on, is it connected to a switch? as far as the radiator fan the circuit for it is live all the time in acc and run pos. and the curcuit grounds thru the thermo switch, turning it on. also the ac pressure switches will kick it on when the ac is running. if the fan seems to run all the time, or draining the alt, there must be a short to ground somewhere along the line, explaining how pulling the fuse stopped the matter

dont forget the rx axles are longer than the brat. the doj is too big to swap onto the ea81 axle if you are relly serious you should consider the ea82 suspension, that is if yu can fab and have access to tools. another option would be the custom axle route, but that may involve $$$$ a simpler solution would be to see if 23 spline stubs will swap onto the full time tranny, so you can just drop it in with the existing axles if you want my real opinion i would consider the ea82 mod(relocate control arm mount, ea82 inner tie rod(ps only) and modified strut cap) as this will let you use the rx struts, and also acommodate a 5 lug xt6 suspension i may be getting my modified crossmember this weekend and i will see if i can get a pic of the mount relocation

so if i understand this right this is an ea81 in an ea82 car? very nice! i take it you swapped the pitch bar mounts? did you use ea81 or ea82 anciliaries?

the soob has a common ground so if you use a radio with 8 wires for the speaks, you will use the grounds for the left and right fronts, leave the rear grounds hang fom the radio. the haynes book has a good diagram for the electricals

post them here on usmb in the market place forum. this site is the biggest old scoll site with the most exposure. you answered yourself by posting here!
