Holy smokes $280!! nice steal! WELCOME to the only site you ever need to keep your roo on the road! -Nomad

Welcome! You have hit the jackpot for info on anything (plus more) subaru. -Nomad

I figured it out! It was a tooth off on the dizzy , and I also got a question about the test connectors, if I plug it in, I can't give gas at all or it just dies, if unplugged I can gas but the check engine light will be on?? I haven't timed it with light yet for I'm out if town. Miles, those videos are more then helpful and easy to follow! The only reason I decided to do the job myself was because of your step by step videos! Thanks man!!! SERIOUSLY! -Nomad

I got my car running!!! But I have the green plastic and white connectors up by furl filter, if they are unplugged I can gas and the check engine light is on, but if I plug them in I can't push on gas without it dying. Do I need to save the timing some how? -Nomad

The timing covers are off, I left them off cuz I heard its much easier with this plastics gone. They are 180° of each other....must be off on the dizzy? Maybe s tooth or two? -Nomad

So I have spfi 1990 loyale and did timing belts,tensioners, and pulleys as well as head gaskets and main seals, I got everything dropped in and I can't get it to start...I'm pretty sure its the timing at the dizzy (I hope) but was wondering if I did the cams correct? I followed Milesfox video on youtibe "the art of subaru maintance" and did drivers side cam up then rotated it till pointing down and installed passenger side with cam hole was up and driver down. Anyways I can't get car to start correctly, it will start and sound like garbage with full pedal but it barely breathes and dies with pedal release....I also am hearing a "clicking" from fuel pump and somewhere in ecu or behind it? (Fuel pump relay I think) Going to fiddle with dizzy again, any help is MUCH appreciated! -Nomad

I pulled my ea-82 out of my loyale and ordered a rebuilt kit!!! Wish it was eject swap but just rebuild! HUGEEEE THANKS TO Mile Fox and his youtube videos "the art of Subaru maintenance" LOVEEE THOSE VIDEOS!!!! -Nomad

I got a package in the mail!!! NEW struts all around! KYB GR-2s, Got a wrx hood scoop and tmic for the EA82T and recently discovered a head leak:mad::mad:, It looks like a external head gasket leak, just coolent barely coming out on driver side head.....I pulled the skid plate and scubbed and cleand and sandedand PAINTED it candy red (pictures to come) and I also tore down disc brakes from turbo and painted and installed the new rubbers and grommets....now doing research to do ea82 to ea82T swap...pm's with turbo comments WELCOME AND NEEDED!!!! -Nomad

you have a 1999 loyale? must be teh only one of that year!!! HELLA RARE!:lol: -Nomad

Yeahhhhh!! lets meet up in Boise Idaho yeah?! haha -Nomad

Actually I saw those and wanted them :-p so I guess so, haha, I keep jamming my fingers as I go to close the door, haha yours look uber clean!!!....wish I had power windows!! -Nomad

Installed the dead pedal/carpet holder(), the arm rest swap/upgrade... did these a little bit ago... -Nomad

I got a loyale and found 2 plastic headlight covers, they are 2 different brands though and I was looking for another one to match, the one I'm looking for is "MPC" and said made in Australia, I searched but found no infor so far... -Nomad

Word those are pretty sick! what kinda clear coat did you use? -Nomad

just got a knock at the door.....package from http://www.rockauto.com!! -cap -rotor -plugs -filter now I gotta drive 30 minutes, 1 way,to use my buddy's garage because I live in apartments that have a strict "no working on car" policy.....but it should be fun... -Nomad

Word! -Nomad

How is this done? I saw a dead pedal at the junk yard but couldn't see how to take it off?....Anybody -Nomad

Correct, turbos have the 25 and NON TURBOS have 23....parts house will confuse these, so be careful!!! -Nomad
