  1. hi i just swapped in an engine into a loyale it was carbed,now its spfi, after about a quarter mile the check engine light comes on, could it be the timing is off?i am wondering because i had to switch the distributor., and my hood label with the timing stuff on it is missing, so i was wondering there is a single white plug and a green plug at the top of the engine bay on the drivers side, and i cant remember if theyre supposed to be plugged in or unplugged, also how many degrees btdc is an spfi 1.8 supposed to be set at thanks.
  2. hey guys i have 2 loyales, one 2wheeldrive carburated, with a beat up body, and i have a nice looking non rusty 4wd wagon that has spfi.i already pulled off both intakes tonight and got both engines ready to pull for tommorow, and the carburated on has smog pumps emmissions crap on the bottom of the engine on the side of the exhaust areas, i was just wanting to make sure that there will be no ill effects if i plug off the emmissions stuff down there? and has anyone else out there done this swap? i did it once but it was like 4 years ago and it was at a shop so i never seen the car again. thanks
  3. anybody have any luck with these? the electric turbo charger, it sounds to me like it does the same thing a regular turbo does, but kinda chincey, but im kinda thinking about buyiing one
  4. is there anythingu can do to an 86 loyale like that?

    subaru lift

    so im thinking about lifting a loyale, and putting some 27s or 28s on it, and i was wondering how well they do off road, and if they are gutless with this much of a tire increase? any info on this would be great thanks
  6. hey, i had a broken exhaust and some pinholes, for 3.99 i bought some muffler bandage, because i dont have my welder right now, but anyways its easy to use and now i have a leakfree exhaust. i am very pleased with this product.
  7. youve posted 11 thousand times, holy crap.well as of now ive got 4, so watch out man:grin:
  8. hey general disorder. im a pretty accomplished beater subaru mechanic, and i dont know if youve everhad a peicer subaru or not. but lucas does quiet up the valvetrain, and raise oil psi noticeably i would recomend it. it does what it says it does
  9. he, does anyone know of a company that makes an aftermarket cam for a 86 1.8 loyale
  10. hey guys i just got given a 1986 subaru sedan, 2wd. ive already gone through and replaed the airfilter, done an oil change with some lucas, cleaned spark plugs, new cap and rotor. but any ways, i was wondering has anybody out therer done a dual exhaust, just hack it right before the cat and run two pipes out where the stock stuff ran, im going to use 1.5 pipe, no mufflers, just some big tips, im just curious if itll gain any power, and how loud itll be thanks
