Go Bucky Go!!!!
I love Bucky. What a great car that bucky is. Side note: My 83 only gets at best 25 or so MPG. Doesn't that sound low for a 2wd 5 speed EA-81? You think it might be too rich or something?

Oil filler neck gasket?
subeman90 replied to jmmctighe's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXit is an o-ring and not a gasket. I have one in my garage waiting to be put into the car (I'm lazy and like the look of dirty oil)

48hrs of Tristate 5th Annual Charity Drive
Maybe if you wanted people from here to take interest in this event you could have said something about this a little more in advance than just a week or so. Not everyone on here hangs out on Nasioc. I actually would be interested in doing this if I HAD MORE THAN A WEEKS NOTICE!!!!!!1!!!!!!1!!!!!! :-\

Tranny Fluid Question
I just put a synthetic castrol 80w90 in my impreza gearbox this past friday night. I am really happy with it so far. I got it at autozone and it is in a blue bottle. BTW, the impreza has 141k on it.

cross country in the Sub...advice
subeman90 replied to blatant's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI took a trip a few years back in a 02 OB. It was pretty new at the time so i really didn't travel with much... Akron PA to Souix Falls SD (6:30am to 1:30am the next day) and SF to butte MT (5:30a to 5:00P) All times were staying on the eastern schedule for figuring distances.. Next day I went to Las Vegas, then the day after the grand Canyon, then the next day over to arkansas, the next day bowling green KY and to WVa for the night, The next day Akron PA. Basically what I am saying here is I covered a crap load of miles in a very short amount of time but I still saw all kinds of stuff on the way. Don't be afraid to stop to smell the roses a little and make all of your stops count. (every stop i made was: pee, food, gas in that order) You don't have to drive like a maniac to get places. Sure I didn't do 65/70 but I didn't set any land speed records either. Travel with the traffic so you blend in and the coppers don't look at ya. Keep in mind some places travel a little faster than others. (you would think in SD that going 90 is a bit much till an expedition passes you...and he is doing 100 ) Take some fluids, radar detector, cell ph. with charger, some drinks, a little food, a blanket, some tools, a full size spare if you have the room, duct tape, gloves, and if you have a sharp knife bring it too. (you just never know....) If your car isn't used to having alcohol blended gas....stay away from that too... (that is another story for another time) Good luck and have some fun out there... it is a big country we live in.

Your thoughts...
250k and 2k+ miles away.... no way in heck. If you look hard enough and be patient.... you'll find one. I personally know of a loyale sedan in PA that has next to no rust on the body (didn't see the frame b/c of snow) and it is 5 speed with push button 4wd. It has 195k on it and it is sitting on a "bargain row" I would almost guarantee it is going to be $800 or maybe even less. Honestly i'd offer $600 for it. I personally looked at it last weekend...so it might even still be there. LMK

How many have you meet and greeted.

No check engine light 90 Legacy
subeman90 replied to GregS's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXfor the light to flicker and the fans to cycle on and off there is a test connector that is still hooked up that is normally unhooked. Look under the drives side dash for a green conncetor and a black one (I believe they are single wire connectors) and if you find them together unhook them.

Does Suby make a good AT?
subeman90 replied to alec_syncro's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXHocrest has a 98 or 97 legacy that has over 200k on the tranny and he doesn't even bother to service it, drives it hard, and all that crap and it is great he says. My folks just bought a 99 legacy and it shifts great...it only has 61k on it but for someone who hates atuomatics (me) to say that is quite an accomplishment. The auto tranny I do hate is the automatic in the 90-94 legacy. They suck in my opinion. :-p If you take care of it and don't drive like a moron it will last....oh and the correct tires on the car with a good rotation history is a big plus too.

05 Runaway electronic throttle

Wanted: gen 1 brat under $1000
what ever happened with jessie's brat up in RI?

Even these old FWD GLs sure handle well!
ripping around town and hardly braking while doing it really makes the ricer crowd look at you kinda funny. Mine loves to run 75 but it can and will easily go to 85+...even though it needs a carb adj really badly.
