  1. i sent you a private message with all the details , it is at a used car lot ,
  2. i found you another xt ,i think it is an xt6 ,1400 dollars, it is in a local paper , i have not seen it , only pics, it looks good , 90,000mi
  3. oct 25th is no good, for me , but any other time would be good, it would be nice to have a place to set up a flee market new and used parts along with off road , bon fire at night , a place to do alittle work
  4. well i am aleast 2.5 hrs south of you ,and i am limited on what i can do , because of a past injury , [ boot thing ] sorry
  5. then what am i talking about or have found ?
  6. if i ever need parts for the subaru's and want to use oem , i call wangers subaru fairborn , ohio, they are just subaru since 1977
  7. mine is just the opposite , if i run cheaper oil i will leak or burn more , i run dura blend castrol 10-w30 in my turbo motor w/ 91,000mi ,i change it every 6,000mi , so you pay the same as if you were using cheaper oil and of course a good oem filter
  8. well had a car payment of 350 month , we decided to sell it and the loan was paid off , we have 3 subaru's , 86 spfi a/t fwd sedan, 88 dl d/r wagon, 88 full time 4wd turbo wagon , 2 are running good ,the full time had air struts and i had to put regular struts in , the subaru's in the 80's are smaller and are limited on space , alittle less hp , but no car payment and less insurance ,
  9. as i was stripping out an xt [ 2 in fact] turbo , i found a silver box thing under i think the passanger side carpet ,and i was not sure what it was , this could be what your talking about
  10. very little rain here ,in fact i have not mowed my grass for 2 weeks , and no i do not have sheep or goats fenced in my yard or a bunch of junk cars , stay safe ,
  11. i think you can honda accord springs , but other board members can answer that
  12. check with your dmv , because each state is different on this matter
  13. well as far as the rear end i used xt trailing arm , springs, sway bar,,but the front struts from an xt will work ,but it will sit pretty low , i am also in need of front adjustable manual struts for my full time 4wd a/t turbo wagon , because the front sits lower than the back , the back air struts have quit working now,
  14. i would help ,but i have no truck or trailer , miles fox in nw IN ,can help you with motor work etc.. but he has no pc right now and gets on here every so oftern
  15. well here in ohio i will not buy a car with out a title , because when i junk it the bone yards wants a title
  16. i used the rear end from an xt , rear disc, trailing arm, sway bar, the hole thing , and mine looks good ,
  17. can you run chevron dello 15-w 40 in a non turbo'; ? like my 88 spfi dual range wagon non turbo ?
  18. well that is just what i use, other board members might use other brands just my opinion
  19. castrol dura blend 10-w-30 , 9.80 5 qt at wal-mart , that is what i use, i change it every 6,000mi and a good filter
  20. i have a 86 spfi a/t fwd sedan that does the same thing , i tried mmo , helped alittle , i changed the oil to castrol dual blend 10-w -30 , 9.80 for 5qt jug at wa-mart , and it went away , other board members have there own opinion , just my 2 cents
  21. check the heater hoses first, which are right below the spare tire, if it is a hg i paid 200 bucks for a complete set from napa and about 14hrs with 3 guys , but the gasket set had alot of extra gaskets left for other cars
  22. that is the way i have found alot of mine , or i have found them parked in a driveway and walked up and asked the owner if it is for sale , in fact i just went and looked at 1 last night which is for sale , but it had alot of rust, and needed axles, oil seals, ecs light on, bullet hole in windshield , i passed on it
