Quick questions
1. What direction is the transfluid from a 3AT running in. (Out from the fitting near the torque converter to the radiator and back in the other one?? I'm confused. 2. If you are going to wrap a steering wheel with a leather sew on cover, what's the quickest and easiest way to fill in "cracks" prior to wrapping?? Thanks guys! Todd

Gen one steering question
Ok....I get this "knocking" kinda sound in the steering shaft when I hit a bump, or at 60-65 MPH. The steering is tight, new outer tie rod ends, (it aligned perfectly), new lower ball joints and balanced new tires. The steering wheel does not shake or vibrate, driving or braking either, but even a bump at low speed and you can hear the "knock". Even if I hold the wheel firmly at 60 mph, I still hear the "rattle/knock"!!! Now I do have some 1/8" spacers on the wheels, bacuae I'm using Loyale steel wheels and they rub with out the spacers. I'm thinking it's the steering shaft universal joint?? I even replaced the steering wheel.....same noise. Help! Ideas? 78 DL 2WD wagon. Todd

SUBARU3 replied to SUBARU3's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI have 2 sensors on the left tower. I checked all the lines today and reset the ECU. Light off for now. My shifting is a bit funky 2nd-3rd. Which one did you replace, the one toward the engine or toward the side of the car? Thanks Todd

OBD code identification????
I got this code from AutoZone on a late 1995 Impreza (OBD2) 2.2 AWD. "PO106" "MAP/BARO" "CKT" "Range/PERF" That translates to: Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Range/Performance Problem It was in the computer twice. Any ideas? Car runs fine. Passed emissions with flying colors with CEL on. Regards, Todd

Need an idea on pricing for a 78 Brat
Wait a second......"no one wants a gen1 Brat". "They are giving them away in good shape on the bay"???????????? I beg to differ. I've seen some nice prices on eBay recently!! You guys really upset me with these type of comments! I could say some things about Gen 2s....but I'll "bite my tongue". Let's just say, I choose to not own any. I have 5...yes 5 wanting my 1980. 3 wanting my 79 wagon. I also get plenty of emails loooking for these vehicles. " very little rust", 78k original miles" sounds nice to me!!!!!! I can get you a buyer for MUCH more than $200!!! Let supply and demand work! Tell the guy to place a message on here with his contact info. Try eBay!!! Better keep $200 a secret or you will have competition! I have a coworker doctor friend who wants a Gen 1...he said he pay what was needed for a nice one! Folks, let's not offend each others vehicles with comments like that. Esp, when the statement is not true. I'm growing weary of defending the Gen1s. Getting a good price is fine, free is better. But lets refrain from the comments that "my cars" are not nice or desirable in the marketplace! Thank you, Todd

Storage of a Wagon
When I have stored for long periods, I siphon the full tank out and replace with fresh gas. DO NOT run 2 year old gas through the car. The problem then is what to do with the old gas!! I have heard of people draining the tank, leaving the cap off and also opening the service panals. That allows cross ventilation to dry out tank. A dry tank won't rust either. A full tank keeps moiture out of the tank as well. Todd

2,500 mile uHaul with 96 Legacy (108k)
SUBARU3 replied to Lesbaru's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXRemember that the car might be fine towing, but the brakes are NOT designed for the extra 2500 pounds. Does the trailer have electric brakes? Be cautious with stops and hills. Avoid stops and hills if possible. Todd

2.2 tick, tick, tick question?
SUBARU3 replied to sisu's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe (3) 2.2s I've owned have all had some "occasional", lite ticking at the crank sensor when cold. It's not valve noise on mine at all. My ticking is a high tone, electrical "snap". I guess it will depend on the quality and location of the ticking to determine the cause. Todd

SUBARU3 replied to mikeanderso's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI got your email. I have both a 2.2 95 Impreza and a 1.8 95 Impreza. I will look at the connectors tommorrow. I'm currently at work. Todd

2.2 tick, tick, tick question?
SUBARU3 replied to sisu's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXMine does that too occasionally. I think it's the cam or crank sensor and it's magnetic discharge. I think there is less resistance in the warm engine and thus no "popping or ticking". It does not effect operation. Todd

1980 Subaru automatic tranny, only 26,000 miles
Well, the auto trans separates from the differential, So the question is , will the EA 71 automatic diff align and work with this later 3AT trans from this 1980. Todd
