I'm looking to buy another Subaru. What's a good year and model? I've only owned older Subarus so far, a 1985 GL and a 1985 GL-10. I found out the hard way that OEM parts for these older models are becoming really hard to find. Should I stick with GL's and Loyale's or look at Legacys? Thanks!

Rock Auto will try and sell you the Carbone axle because it has the lifetime warranty. Don't do it, get the EMPI (Empius) axle.

Already had three offers. She may be finding a new home.

What are the symptoms of wheels bearings that are going out?

Do you guys have your Soobs set to the highest adjustment? Is it worth it?

Thanks General. I'm getting about 25mpg I believe.

What's the lowest weight I can go in my 85 GL-10? Lookin' to maximize fuel economy.

I swear I just saw this for sale on CL. I don't want to sell the car but I would sell it if the right buyer came along. Otherwise, I'll just keep enjoying it.

Thanks! Its not perfect a few nicks and imperfections. The car is old! The trim could use replacing, it needs a paint job, and a few other things. I'll post some other pics tomorrow.

I'm in Snohomish County, beatiful day today. Subaru show? Awesome! I've never heard about that.

Took these today. All original, 52k miles.

It's fixed! Car runs fine. The culprit? A bad ECM, actually, two bad ones. My original ECM was bad and the one that the salvage yard originally sent me was bad as well. I just got the replacement and the car fired right up, grounding issue is resolved.

Metrinch tools, buy a set. http://www.metrinch.tv/ I bought mine at Sears over 15 years ago and have used it on American and imported cars. I swear by these. Plus, they are designed not to grab on to the corners of the bolts but the flat parts of the bolts. I've been able to take almost completely rounded nuts off of anything with these.

Okay, here's what I'm getting. I removed the circuit board from the ECM housing so that I could get access to the back of it to test the components. From left to right, the top right corner of my ECM picture: T702 0.982 T401, the green one, gives me 3.052 The last one, unsure of the number, gives me 2.623

I found a D702 and a T702. The T702 is a square vertical black piece, 1 of three pieces along the inside of the wall of the ECM. The D702 is buried on the bottom near that plastic glue, oblong shape. I've got my autometer on diode test. The manual says: Touch the test probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage will typically indicate .400 to .700V. Reverse voltage will indicate "OL." Shorted devices will indicate near 0V and an open device will indicate "OL" in both polarities. Sounds like Chineese to me lol.
