  1. Got the AC checked out, I was told that the compressor needs to be sealed and its $60 plus whatever other leaks happen after that. Also the AC radiator thingy lol the fins are coming off in long strips
  2. Remove the cat, sea foam the engine and change the fuel filters. My gl had that same issue.
  3. Point taken sorry about not searching I read about the forum being wiped or hacked or summin figured thered be nothing to search through.
  4. Any other things I should look out for? I mean any other wierd quirks (small hoses, sensors to replace?) Could you guys suggest how to replace the engine driven fan with an electric one? How do I wire it up? Also, is it worth keeping the AC system in it (it doesnt work) dont know what the problem is, it blows but doesnt get cold and I dont know how expensive it will be to fix. Plus getting rid of it makes working on the car easier. I am currently running a single belt for the fan, power stearing pump, ac comp. and the alternator, should I put the other belt back on?
  5. I would like to keep the engine in it for now Just would like to let it breath better.
  6. Not selling it, not in the shape shes in Looked at a 93 legacy, and some other gls for around $400. I just love the look of the wagon All the other cars I saw were beat to hell Not allot of Subbys here in Puerto Rico
  7. OK so hi to everyone here Bought an Automatic 1987 GL Station Wagon with the 1.8 SPFI FWD for $1000 79,000 miles on it, interior is in great shape and it has 0 rust. So far I have replaced: Broken timing belt (2 new belts) Front Halfshafts New PLugs, wires, dist. cap and rotor Air filter Shocks Oil change tranny oil change Pads and shoes and some water hoses Speakers/stereo 1983 Nissan Maxima Fuel Pump previous owner had a 2" catless exhaust put in First of all the brakes worry me: It seems to brake very low on the first push. When the brake is released and engaged again the pedal pops up. I tried the adjustment at the rear drums. I adjusted one but the other is locked (really I couldnt move it at all) I dont have any visible fluid leaks at the tires. Maybe a slight leak the the reservoir. Could the stuck adjustment knob be a problem? Next Issue: I would like to use a cone filter on the MAF could that cause problems/issues? Would I be better of modifying the stock filter housing to suck air from the fender and not hot muffler air? Radiator Fans: Can I use one or two electric fans instead of the belt driven one and have it function properly? (AC radiator and fan removed) Power Stearing res leaks were it meats the pump how do I seal it? Gasket...? Can I use a cherry bomb glasspack on the 2" exhaust? Local Subaru Guru will do a Manual Swap for me with a new clutch all parts and labor for $500 good price?
