  1. Small leak in my radiator over this last summer, so i just kept a gallon of water in the car and filled it when low. (So no antifreeze at all). Winter- water pump frozen solid while driving= water FLOWING out of timing belt cover. And engine timing knocked outa the park. My diagnosis- may need new water pump, definitely water pump gasket and timing belt. It still runs, but rough. No white smoke. My question: is it still possible i blew a head gasket, even with no smoke??
  2. I KNOW!!! there ARE TONS OF SUBARUS OUT IN WASH... I CANT FIND A SINGLE DECENT ONE OUT HERE!!! I STILL HAVE THE YELLOW WAGON, BUT IT GOT REAR ENDED SO BAD THAT IT COMPLETELY WARPED THE REAR END TO THE POINT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE THE BACK SEATS, THERE IS A HUGE GAP BETWEEN WHERE THE SEATS FOLD DOWN. AND YOU CAN SEE THE WHOLE REAR END SAGS DOWN WHEN LOOKING AT IT FROM THE SIDE.... QUITE SAD, AND PISSED ME OFF PRETTY WELL. YA, KNO

  5. I am in need to know if I can change my rear CV axle by myself and not have a shop do anything? what has been happening is the inside of the CV axle(the big round part that flexes), has been making all kinds of snapping sounds and is LITERALY starting to seize up and making the car almost stop!! Has this happened to any of you? and am I going to be able to fix it? I already have the new axle and plenty of tools. I have changed the front axles before but never the rear. please let me know if you any information. thanks, Austin
  6. so i have an 88 gl-10 with a very nice stereo. somebody tried breaking in through the passenger door and COMPLETELY destroyed the door handle, and didnt even get in, which is good. But i am going to visit the pull a part today to get a new handle and have some questions. 1. i have power door locks and power windows. so im trying to get some info on pulling the door panel?(what to do first, etc..) 2. they f***ed everything up so much that i can only roll the window down about half way. So are there any internal parts anyone thinks i should get that the place wont charge me too much for?
  7. Finally finished. used the vinegar, then carpet cleaning bissle'd it. the seats feel super soft and brand new now. just got to get rid of that light vinegar smell. lol
  8. yea thats what it looked like. i was just making sure no springs or something are going to come popping out when i lift it out. ill keep you posted with the cleaning. i used the vinegar and water trick before and it seemed to work. i also have a bissle carpet cleaner, so i know thats going to help ALOT.
  9. somebody hacked my profile. how do i change my biography

  10. I recently moved to Colorado. And had my Subi shipped, just got here today. The interior is covered in alot of mold and i am currently using the vinigar trick and scrubing alot. i am trying to find out how hard it will be to take out the front seats to be able to clean it a little better. can someone tell me how easy they are to take out? thanks, subi dude

  13. how are those km2's working out for ya?

  14. yea, forgot to mention i have a 2 inch lift with 205/75/15's on now.
  15. hello. i saw in the tire size and combo pic thread that you are running 235/75/15's on a two inch lift. i also have a 2in lift with 205's on there now, with NO rubbing. im looking to get 215/75/15's and im trying to see if there going to be rubbing like crazy. have you done the pounding and trimming on yours yet? please private message me back if its ok.. thanks, subi dude

  16. I am looking at getting some 215/75/15 tires. they are going on my wagon that has a two inch lift and a 1.8 SPFI engine with a 5sp dual range tranny. Can anybody tell me what kind of gas milage im going to be getting? Im driving all the way from washington to colorado. So any help would be much appreciated. thanks, subi dude
  17. Ok, so almost two inches wider. guess ill have to look how much more room i have left. might have to (somehow) pound a little more
  18. i am planning on buying myself some new tires. I have 205/75/15's on the car now with 2in lift, and did enough pounding to where they dont rub AT ALL. so thats good. i looked for 205's everywhere but cant find any good mud's in that size besides general grabbers. The question is. I really really want the BFGoodrich KM2's, but the smallest size is 215/75/15. So will they work? or are they going to rub ALOT? thanks, subi dude
