I removed the valve cover and TB cover. The timing belt is dead nuts on and the rockers all have valve lash at the top of the power stroke on each cylinder. I did a second dry compression test yesterday and got 25lbs on #1, 150lbs on #2 and 25lbs on #3. I can hear metallic clanking coming from the #3 end of the block so it looks the like the head going to have to come off. It starts and runs but smokes.

I've been driving this puppy with torque bind for ten years now and I've finally noticed bearing noise coming from the right rear. Problem is when I put it on a lift and check for any play there is none and the cv axle appears fine. The noise doesn't seem to get any worse even after rolling for the last 4000 miles. hmmm? Can a rear differential failure transfer noise to just one rear wheel?

I need to know if a 1992 tensioner pulley bracket will fit my 1996 2.2 engine. The bolt is broken off in the bracket on my 96 from a heli coil repair I did a couple years ago. Apparently I didn't drill it "perfectly straight on" for the heli coil, and the slight misalignment and vibration finally snapped the bolt. duh?

Will there be any problems swapping the above into a 1996 Legacy LS wagon? I put a new RF wheel bearing and hub in a LS wagon and it's making that proverbial grinding sound again. I noticed the new wheel bearing I bought consisted of ball bearings instead of roller bearings. yup. cheapo's from the big"E". my bad.

Oh well I wasn't paying attention last week when I ordered front 277mm rotors for my 90 legacy wagon from E-bay. I sure don't need to drink to get stupid. ha ha. I'm pretty sure they will fit the 04 Forester I sold to a friend. They didn't come with the ceramic pads their ad claimed would arrive with em. I initiated a return, but I think I'll just bag it.
