Those three saabs are runners. He does have 2 parts saabs tho. None with louvers or spoilers tho. I also forgot to mention that he bought another set of louvers for his 4 door saab. The one with a spoiler is a 16 valve and the one with both is a turbo. I like louvers. I wish my wagon had some. I think I've only seen one or two subies with louvers.

Ea81 starts but only runs for 10 seconds
doobieryan replied to JRD's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
But 15 seconds is long enough to figure out if it spits and sputters when you hit the gas which would tell you timing is off -
83 Dl wagon carb question!!
doobieryan replied to Howard's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Everybody who puts an aftermarket carb goes with weber. Just go on ebay and search for ea81 weber. The whole kit is like 320 dollars and it comes with everything. Even the air cleaner. And then search the forum for weber swaps and it'll tell you everything you need to know to get it going Ryan -

81 GL-5 Wagon to get it or not to get it
doobieryan replied to 84gl's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If i had to commute a lot i would love a Fwd ea81 cause they get amazing mileage. But i like to go play around in the hills alot so i need 4x4. There's nothing wrong with a Fwd. Id just rather have 4x4 Ryan -

81 GL-5 Wagon to get it or not to get it

Id say go for it. You could easily double your money or just put the engine in Something better than a 2wd wagon. Ryan -
best place to buy exhaust for an ea-81?
doobieryan replied to RallyAlex's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yeah I definitely wouldn't pay that. Just weld it yourself or have a buddy do it -

doobieryan replied to SubieDaddy80's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Id go with the justy cause you wouldn't wanna blow a head gasket or break a t-belt that far away from home. And better gas mileage -
+1!! ea82 is definitely not your best bet
-
I ran into some monetary issues when i lost my job, but when i get some money flowing again i fully plan on getting one
-
If its overheating all the time then id be willing to bet money that its a head gasket. Do a compression test on it
-
Does it ever overheat? Cause it should suck coolant out of the overflow as it heats up. Not the other way around. I also think it could be a head gasket problem cause that's pretty common with those engines. Is the oil milky looking? If so its definitely a head gasket problem.

Yeah, if i wasn't gonna offroad my wagon i wouldn't have chopped the fenders either. Lol. And for big city driving a little bigger tires would Prolly be nice for the 4 speed gearing. Lol -

Yeah. Those soobie 14s are pretty hard to come by. I looked for a long time then came across some 6 lug wheel Im gonna drill in the near future. I chopped my fenders just to make room for the bumper i built for it. Lol. And mine is rust free too. Wagons are pretty easy to find rust free ones. Ill Prolly Chop my fenders a little more to make room for the 31s i got for it:grin: Do you plan on offroading your wagon?
