Thanks for the reply, I do appreciate it. Uhh whats a D/R? I know a stupid question, but I can't guess it.

I think these guys ship, and on a lot of things they've darn reasonable prices, but not on everything. http://halseyimportparts.com/ Example: $119. for hitachi coil at the dealer, $24. at halsey import.

Hello, just wondering what was the last year Subaru quit making part time four wheel drive vehicles? I want to keep it in mind while keeping my eye out for another Subie. Also is there any particular model that is the more desirable of the last part time 4 wheelin subies? Thanks all! EZ

Thanks, it is an Hitachi. EZ

Here( http://halseyimportparts.com/ ) you can get them for $24.00 . Between the two of them a person otta be able to save a little green. Yep, I went with the OEM. Figured it's less likely to spawn complications.

How do you tell the difference between the hitachi and the ND distributor. Thanks! EZ

Thanks GeneralDisorder I appreciate it.

This is in relation to my previous post in that I need to know if the coil from an 86 gl wagon 1.8L carbed has a built in resistor or if it is on the car somewhere? I don't want to put a resistor on the rig if I don't have to and all the coils i'm finding at the parts shops all require an external resistor. I just want to get it right as soon as possible. Thank you! EZ

I couldn't wait for the email so I called support. The answer is I can use it if I put a 2.3 ohm ballast resistor to it, so as not to burnup the ignitor. Thank you GeneralDisorder! EZ

Here's something I didn't notice yesterday. http://www.msdignition.com/cgi-bin/app_guide_3.pl Yes I punched in the year, make, & model and the coil PN8202 comes up compatible. I wish I'd seen it yesterday. They don't recommend installing it in the horizontal position(probably shortens life span), but upon checking which one I installed on my ford a few years ago(30k+ mls) it is the same 8202 and in the horizontal position. No problems so far, it's installed with the msd ignition box also though, if that makes a diff. Thanks for the input, I appreciate it. EZ

Put the question to customer service at msd and will post their answer when it comes. Thank you! EZ

That's another I wasn't thinkin about. Thanks! EZ

Seems like I'm among the last to know about these places. A big THANK YOU, for this info. EZ

Hello, My stock ignition coil is leaking and I want to upgrade. My question: Is the MSD blaster 2 mdl 8202 coil compatible with 86 GL wagons, and is it just a straight out swap or do I need something else to insure no damage to the electrical system? Thank you, and all help appreciated! EZ

Thanks for the info. I'll check it out for future use as I took the wagon to my favorite exhaust shop and he was able to just replace the flex joint for a c note + sam's share, and I thought it was toast. hoeyvae! Wished I'd seen your post b4 I spent the money, that's if you live anywhere close.
