'86 GL10 Turbo wagon rear calipers
Ok, ok.... Napa didnt have rear calipers, only piston rebuild kits. I searched here a bit deeper and someone pointed to Rock Auto. Sure enough they had loaded rear calipers for something like $36 a piece. So, whatever the question, Rock Auto is the answer.

BirdMobile "Under the Hood" Photos - for Opus
Thanks for the pix, that's sure clean. My '86 is about that naked, now if I could make my '86 turbo look that naked!
- 1988 GL cant get new CV through wheel bearing. Anyone else experience this? Have tips?

Deleting AC compressor '86 Turbo GL
Pictures, yes! So I'll pull the alternator and that one bolt and the compressor comes off....apparently. You know, I have a spare ea82 [no AC] in the shed. If it has alternator bracket on it I could use it.

Deleting AC compressor '86 Turbo GL
What must I replace? Is there more to pulling the compressor? I looked but cant see a whole lot til I start pulling things.

Deleting AC compressor '86 Turbo GL
Doesnt work, under hood is mega crowded with it, I want it gone. Ok to pull the compressor and hoses? I can only see 1 bolt holding compressor bracket on...has to be more than that? Matter of fact, I want to yard out whatever I can under the hood. What are my options?

'86 GL-10 Rear wheel bearings
First time for me. I know I need this: http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sku/Timken/Wheel_Bearing/TM513056.html I am assuming that it one bearing and race. Where's the rest of what I need [beside seals]? Do I need another race or just a bearing? Thats a big race, are there 2 bearings in it, etc? Why cant I find a rear outer wheel bearing for a 4wd?

Help rebuilding my Brat engine
A Soob engine without oil all over it is about like a Detroit diesel without oil everywhere...pretty slim. Sounds like you might have a short in your sending unit gauge or wire. How bad is the oil...got a pic??

'86 GL10 turbo MPFI questions
New plugs, found a vacuum leak as well. Little Seafoam sucked into the intake and some in the tank. Runs pretty good now. Idle is kinda high though.

'86 GL10 turbo MPFI questions
180k on it. I doubt they've been off. Wasnt sure if there were any sensors or things like that, that should be cleaned. Did I say the O2 sensor is new too.

'86 GL10 turbo MPFI questions
Ok, the 2 copper heavy spades I understand. The brass trigger volt spade I understand. That means the left over brass spade is ground....correct? Nothing happens. The green connector doesnt run the pump like it should. I am thinking there is a ground issue but not sure. If in fact the other brass spade is for a ground, I can ground that somewhere and see what happens. I didnt want to do anything til I was sure. I saw the diagram on the relay but none look like they are ground. In a headlight relay there is a ground spade. O2 sensor is new. Trying to figure out why it starts hard.

New ride......
I had to jump the fuel pump relay. Here's my issues for now: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/146924-86-gl10-turbo-mpfi-questions/

'86 GL10 turbo MPFI questions
1: this is my absolute first go around with fuel injection. 2: Is there an "idle mixture" adjustment? It starts hard and smells rich. Stumbles up through 2100 or so. Once it warms up its ok. 3: fuel filter; just 1 black metal canister above the brake booster? 4: The fuel pump relay under the dash. PO put a new relay in and it wouldnt run. The only way I can get it to run is to jump the big power wire to the big blue wire. One of the smaller wires always have 12v to it. What is the 4th wire for? [Green test connectors do not cycle the fuel pump]

New ride......
I've been tooling around in my '87 Brat and '86 GL Wagon for the past 15 yrs. Seems I bought an '86 GL Turbo 5 spd wagon today. My, theres an awful lot of stuff under the hood. It wouldnt run for the guy so I got it running. Took it for a spin...I actually giggled. What a difference from what I've been driving! Reminded me of when I was a kid, driving my '65 Malibu SS with a 396....well, almost. I'm getting too old for these projects.
