  1. Anyone running this pump on the stock wiring?
  2. I'm swapping my DGEV for a DGV 5A Weber and decided to pick up a Redline fuel pump to go with it. The pump puts out 4-6 psi, but not to worry, I have a Holley Dead Head regulator kicking around that should do the trick. Now that I've already bought the pump, Ive started thinking about the stock electrical system. The pump came with paperwork saying in can draw up to 6 amps. Is this too much for the stock wiring and FCU?
  3. Just to give a little closure to anyone doing a search. My EGR valve, which was disconnected, was leaking intermittently. Sometimes it would suck the carb cleaner I sprayed on it and sometimes it didn't. I fixed it by making a block off plate to replace the valve.
  4. http://www.autohausaz.com/index.html has EMPI for a good price and I got mine in a couple of days shipping it ground.
  5. What happens when the 7/16th's studs strip out? Cut the holes larger? This is what I was faced with but at the time I was about to install different heads anyway so I opted to helicoil the new heads with the stock 10mm threads as a preventative measure. Because at the time I had 3 different thread patterns holding the exhaust on, I was able to get all new matching studs from the dealership, including the self locking star head bolts for the exhaust manifolds "spacers". About $20 in all but worth it. I've had the exhaust off ten times since and with the help of some high temp lock tight I haven't had one stud ever budge.
  6. Interesting. I assumed that when the fan kicks on and starts using up power the RPMs should decrease a hair. But it sounds like the car compensates and is able to boost the RPMs instead? I'm pretty sure I don't have a vacuum leak. I've doused every intake connection with carb cleaner and had no results. And my idle is pretty steady with maybe a 25 RPM fluctuation. I've also hooked up a vacuum gauge to the manifold giving me a good solid reading at idle and a consistent reading at 1600 RPMs "the vacuum gauge did fluctuate slightly with the RPMs". I'm going to disconnect the cruise and brake booster next to completely rule out a vacuum leak. I would also like to rule out all electrical problems. Any suggestions are welcome.
  7. I've read on the forum that my problem could be caused by the distributer bushings going out. It seems like mine are OK so I'm at a loss to what my problem is. I have a smooth idle. When I adjust the throttle to hold the RPMs at 1600, they will fluctuate up to 200 RPMs. Then, when the electric fan kicks in, the RPMs fluctuate up to 300 RPMs. When the fan quits, the RPMs go back to the 200 fluctuation. My Dizzy is a Hitachi pointless and has very minimal side to side play but has about a 1/16 of an inch vertical play. The vacuum advance doesn't leak. When I got my 82 Sub 2 years ago the Dizzy had a Philbin sticker on it so I know it had been rebuilt to some degree at some point. It was very dirty when I got it so I took it apart to clean it. As far as I can tell I put it back together correctly, adjusting the air gap to spec. I had an old Sub mechanic take a look at it and he said that he thought the bushings seemed acceptable. I have a new alternator and I have tried 2 different coils that gave me the same results. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
  8. Just as a follow up if antibody's interested, Redline emailed me back giving me the individual gasket part #s. 444 110 03 manifold gasket 99005 068 carb base gasket The guy had to search for these #s because he couldn't find a gasket set # either. Don't know if these are the actual gaskets though. Maybe I'll order them if I need some jets or filter one of these days, just to make it worth the shipping.
  9. Thanks hatchsub. I'm looking for the top and bottom gaskets for the adapter plate.
  10. Greetings Everybody, I'm rebuilding my 32/36 DGAV Carb and I'm having a hard time finding just the adapter gaskets online. I ordered the rebuild kit and adapter gaskets from http://www.webercarbsdirect.com/ and they sent me the wrong ones. I went to http://www.redlineweber.com/ ,looked at the Subaru kits, and it gave me the part# 99004.110 for the adapter. I looked under the gasket kit for this particular adapter and its unlisted. Anybody run into this? Anybody know a good smart distributer that can help and won't be confused with my problem? Anybody recognize the wrong gaskets webercarbsdirect sent me? Anybody recommend just making my own?
