  1. Got the car home. Each time I went to drive it it ran for less time. Ended up towing it the last 3 miles. Durin the last run period the engine wasn't running as well the tack was jumping around in the last minute or so of run time. Seems what ever the problem is it is getting worst. Will think about it a few days since the weekend is busy with grads and things. Thanks for the input.

  3. Tried to drive home. Started right up. Ran great for a few miles like unt full operating temp. Then same thing feels like running out I gas. But why would the fuel pump quit with engine temp? Or is there a common señor that fails once warmed up.
  4. Hi all, I had just picked a 91' Wagon, put new head gaskets on it.. Went for a few test drives around the block, like 2- 4 miles and ran great. not my drver so I haven't been driving it however I thougth I would drive it into work today which is like a 11 mile drive. Car just sputtered and died as I was getting into the parking lot. It started back up but with no idle, then died. Did that a few times to get in a parking spot and am sitting here hoping it will run to get me back home. Felt like maybe a fuel issue, but looking for other ideas.. the car has 137K and the gasket swap went well. thanks
  5. Yahoo,, it's A-Live,,, Had picked up a '91 Loyal Wagon with bad head gaskets. Ordered up a set of Stone Head gaskets and got them in. Sounds fine running smooth and quite. So far a good investment.. $350 mostly straight 137K miles... $150 parts,, equals runner...
  6. Stared looking AKA E-Bay for engine gasket set I will be needing on my '91 Loyale. Not a whole lot of price difference for the most part 45-65 most sets.. Brands like Eristic and Misumo seem to be on there the most. Are these all on par with each other or is there some nasty stuff to stay away from.. I know OME is the best, and I haven't priced them yet, I was looking for some guideance. Aftermarket stuff or spend the $$ for OME.. Anyone know what Subaru gaskets sets run on that note.. Thanks
  7. Thanks for the replies, I am in research mode here, big plan today is transfer the title. Most likely will get the wagon in the garage in few months to pull engine and new head gaskets.
  8. Just picked up a '91 Wagon 134K blown head straight body, $350. That was up near Seattle.
  9. Oh I just picked up '91 Loyale, 134K, Needs work yep but a fair price. One thing I haven't messed with before is the shift linkage, this one seems to have alot of play and movement in the "H" pattern, all gears are there but you can swing that shifter around in any gear like it is in the "Netrua" gate. Is there any normal springs/bushings that get broken, lost on the GL/Loyales? Thanks
  10. Is there any real owner mileage from EJ swaps into a Loyale?? I have not really heard much on that.
  11. Hi, is there any new owners of the '12 Impreza? Just looking at them and the new engine. Wanted some owner reviews and impressions. Real mileage and any trouble issues. Looking at a 5 door Hatch with 5 speed manual. Thanks
  12. Thanks, I bought it not running for 350 and picked up a PAP long block for 100 then make my 2" lift and wheel/tire, wash/wax and drive. Here is about all I have for a before Pic; //[/img]
  13. Thanks for the tip, I see there is a (2) wire lead going into it. May have to look at a replacement. Been happy with the Subie, one of the many cheap runners everyone seems to pick up. Bought 2 years ago, price + repairs + mods I have just over 800 into it. Put 30K on it and get 26-29 MPG
  14. Hi all, my 1988 GL TBI EA82 has the Check Engine light going on and off in the last month of so. Problem is now I need to run thru emissions. I pulled the code and got code 34. My manual says that is EGR stuck on on or off. I checked the EGR system and it tests good. EGR valve opens and closes as you rev and decel the engine. I tried to clear the ECU by hooking up the Clear Code connectors but now the ECL just stays on. The car seems to be running fine, a bit down on mileage, but that could be gas and weather. Is there any thoughts on the code 34 beside the one from my manual? Oh is it NOT a OME manual. The light seems to go out while cold and warming up, one at operating temp it comes on. Sometimes while warm it will go back off, but my drives are short, 8-15 mile drives. [/img]
