The Scooby

the problem is that they are on my car, another set, and i need that car to get to the parts store, and the ones that broke, are on the road somewhere. oh well, i guyss we will have to just try them in the parking lot. Thanks, Shean

What is the belt sizes for the front of the engine on a carbed EA82 engine. it has A/C, the belt that broke goes around the power steering, A/C, water pump and crank, then i also need the size for the other belt so i can replace it now also. it goes over te crank, power steering, A/C, Alt, and the tentioner. i need these sizes soon please, Thanks, Shean

or you could just build a EXO-skeleton around the hatch so then you can roll it down a hill, fip her back over then climb back up the hill in 4wd. sounds like a hell of a time to me. but if thats not for you, then i will trade you my 87 GL wagon, 4wd auto, nearly mint in every aspect expect for a small case of cancer on the passenger side rear fender which i can fix for ya. Later, Shean

plus with the bigger turbo its much less turbo lag compared to the twin, also again much less fabrication. but it still would be awsome to see a TT subaru

yep, heat it up then put soem candle wax on it, the wax will penitrate it and act as a lube to make it come out, ive done this many times with the oxy-acidaline on engine bolts on chevy engines and many other things. good luck, Shean

yep its now official, this is my third amp ive friend in 3 days, so looks as if tomarrow im going to have to make something work so i can put in a larger alt in my car at my auto shop. and make that front light bar.

dam thats weak, ok, can someone tell me the rating on a stock GM alt, or the average or variants for the GM alts. also if someone can send me some plans on how to put in a GM alt on a EA82 Carbed 4x4 wagon, 5sp and A/C, thats the main thing, i must keep tha A/C since i am moving to Arizona. so if i can get them as soon as posiable because i was planning on building a rack for my rally lights on the front of my car as well as a new mount for the lisence plate. instead of using the stock bumper, kind of the pusher bar that was for the Gen I cars, but out of 1inch square steel tubing and some flat bar and have it mount in the same place as the bumper. Thanks, Shean

ya i swapped the alts for another EA82 stocker i had from another engine and it fixed the problem, now i just have to fab up the GM alt bracket on my spare engine at school and then wire her up. by the way, what is he amp rating on our stock 86 EA82 carbed 4wd alt?? because ive now been driving around with the stereo cranked and its not killin crap, its running great and pushing the watts just fine. Thanks, Shean

well crap, i guess i am gonna have to deal with it until i get the cash to get going and do the GM 105amp alt conversion, and get a capastor. but with the GM alt conversion all i have to do is make a mounting bracket, wire it up correctally, and get a longer belt and it should solve my problems, mainly i just dont have the cash for a capisitor, thats the main problem. oh well i gotta crash have to get up in 5 hours to go to work. Thanks guys, Shean

well crap then, i guess i will have to get that extra 125amp GM Alt i got sittin in my truck and put her on. that should cure my problems. because when i got her home she was down almost at 8 on the volt meter. that was only after about 30 minutes of driving. i wonder how subaru_styles has his settup to be able to handle those 5 amps, plus DVD player and such. must be runnign a dual battery settup, i might just go that route.

with the sway bar removed the body roll is MUCH worse, its not really easier to steer, and the pro's are that you have more travel and less chance of binding up and breaking joints if you are a hard core off-roader. Shean

ok so the alt would explain why the dash lights are on, or that the battery is dead, i know the battery is dead because of my stereo.

ok well today im drivin around and the darn thermostat bypass hose bursts, it ends up when i get it off to be the size of a quarter in thickness, put on the new one, while burning my self many many times. so then i get ym new stereo hooked up, 800wpeak 400w RMS Kole 12" and a Boss 760w amp, man does it hit hard, ended up killing my battery while driving down the highway lol, now i have to also convert to the chevy alt so it can carry the power load. but here are my problems now, comming home my darn dash light come on, and what i mean by this is all the ideot lights (EGR, Brake Fluid, Stop Lamp, and the other one) also the parking brake warning light came on. all these came on while driving down the road. also the car seems to idle really ruff, and i mean the whole car mouncing back and forth. it seems to put along alot and seems as if the cat is clogged because it also doesnt have much power. any sugestions??? Thanks, Shean

good ol vice grips, but i would do as ru4x4ever says. Good luck, Shean

well how about this, who ever is going call me on my cell phone (206)-799-5926 and tell me, because i will be gone from home all day with my girlfriend so just give me a call if your going. Shean

then what does everyone think, i think today, wednesday, after 6pm would be good, we would just have to find a place and snap some pictures before it got too dark.

if your wories about strength that much just take an acedline torch and heat the whole hib red hot around the studs after you weld them, then toss it into some room temp water, this is an easy way of forging it and it makes it ALOT stronger. Good Luck, Shean

ALWAYS AND I MEAN ALWAYS FIGHT YOUR TICKETS whats the most you can loose, but pay the orignal amount for the fine, or get it reduced, and/or thrown out and you pay nothing. if your too lazy to have a good anzwer, make up a good excuse. thats what ive done toget out of one of mine, and a few for my friends.

let see, all my tickets: 49 in a 35 = got reduced 79 in a 60 (was actually doing over 100) = got reduced failure to stop = thrown out having a friend in the car = paid and i know im forgetting one, oh well then hitting a steel light pole doing about 30 killing my 1986 Mazda B2000 truck, then bought a 1994 Mazda B3000 and brakes went out and grased a cherokee.

well looks as if i wont be able to make it, because i am working, unless i work some odd ball time. this sucks... but oh well, more money to put into the car now. Shean

yep, i work friday, saturday, and sunday, so the 9th, 10th, and 11th. so if it stays this weekend i wont be able to come unless i work morning that saturday. Shean oh, what do you guys think of this wednesday?? the 7th?

Turbone: im working at Jiffy Lube in redmond, my uncle works there and scored em a job since he just fired two dumb rump roast people. mike: i had 3 tickets and 2 wrecks. only one wreck went on insurance, and i had 2 other tickets i got out of. Shean

depends on if i work or not now, i have to go out to redmond tomarrow morning to fill out paperwork, and take a UA. then tuesday morning i have to go to everett to go to orintation, then i start saturday, and find out when i work from there, so i really have no clue. i hope i can make it, but if not its gonna suck, but atleast i got a job now.

well the 3rd has come and gone, so as far as i know its still on for the 10th, unless anyone else has a better day, but right now its looking that i might not be able to make it because of a new job offering i got that i cant pass up. ill see what i can do though. Later, Shean
