Last Fall I put a longer blade on the driver side of my EA82. I used a 17" on the right and put a 19" on the driver. There is room to do it. The thing was that it seemed to drag the motor down a bit and chatter more easily. This Fall I put an 18" on the driver but dropped to a 16" on the passenger. It works fine, no chatter, no drag. I was thinking that I could probably have used the 19" again, with the other side reduced. It is nice to have the larger swept area on the driver side.

good thinking, nice score

wow - really clean, always glad to see another person from East WA

I've always liked an aircraft look... depending on the size of the switches and their purpose, how about an overhead console like a pilot's?

Holy hell that's cool.

Hey I dig it. Could you center the letters 'RS' under Loyale?

nope just disengaging, listened to it for many years, still worked fine when I pulled it for a d/r 5

OoOoOoOoOo

I dunno, my S/R 5 clunked for years when disengaging... I'm sure it could have been looked at and some money spent, but it always worked and seemed otherwise okay.

something as boring as crapped up injectors? no codes, no cel?

Geez GD, I have two, a SPFI and a Grenade with the pin pulled 'T', they are both doing fine. I just drive them. Don't wheel or race and they have been faithful. Yes they both weep some oil... yes they are not perfect... but they are hardly the piggys you are loathing here.

Yep. I had a big fight with mine over dust (search dust leaks). Take the rear cargo wall off and tighten all the brake light housing nuts uniformly. You can also loosen the screws and lower the hatch latch by shimming the latch with large enough washers to accomodate the dimple around the countersink. This moves the latch down 1/8" inch, or the thickness of one washer and tightens the hatch seal. (Yes I read you are not leaking there )

Next year I'll camp with who knows what vehicle...

More pics, from Yakima a few non brats that came for fun too

I had a few pics too, your's are better

The RX made it to Yakima with no drama, I'll meet you guys at Miner's tomorrow and tag along back through the canyon to Ellensburg. Looking forward to meeting everybody.

Crap. Sorry man.

Crap. Sorry man.

Some folks have declared their disdain for the EA82, but I have had 4 with few major issues... that does not mean they did not have niggly little annoying problems, and leaks but I think they are fine, it depends what you do with them... and what you expect them to do

why don't you just use the social club function on this board?

that was a nicely poetic intro, welcome aboard

LMAO you know there's more than one way to read your post there big guy welcome HBH, good group for keeping the older metal alive

well wait a minute, don't crap can it yet, one weak hole isnt worth throwing it away it really sounds like you might have a wire switched if the timing belts are on, double check the cylinder number against the plug wires and direction of rotation I think you're frustrated, let the board help and maybe it can be salvaged, what is the car, more details
