Overkill on a CEL question
RapidElastic replied to The FNG's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Mine are there also the newer models had them in the engine compartment. The green connectors will put it in test mode when connected and the white connectors clear the codes. They shouldn't be connected all the time though just when your trying to diagnose problems. Maybe that's why it keeps coming up? I believe to erase codes you connect the white connectors while the vehicle is off and then put the ignition on. The test connectors should be disconnected. If you need more info ill look in my book I'm going by memory. -
1987 GL wagon Tick of death?
RapidElastic replied to aksledboy's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I did cam seals, oil pump, and valve covers all at once I would recommend it. Stopped my clicking and no longer leaks oil. And I did timing belts as well while it was all apart. -
Good job man! Looks like it will take on anything!

1989 Subaru DL coughs/sputters when cold
RapidElastic replied to Aurie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
How cold are we talking here? My car did this once but it was around -25 celcius. After it warmed up it was fine. And there should be two white connectors that go together and those will clear the codes. I'm not sure of the exact procedure and my book isn't with me. You may have to have the test connectors and the memory clear connectors at the same time I can't remember. My memory clear connectors are in the engine bay by the fuel filter (93 loyale EA82). -
where to EGR Vacuum from hose to 87' EA82
RapidElastic replied to Suba_GL_87's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
That's the best quality I'm allowed to upload and it shows all you need. The picture is right where you drew the yellow box on the manifold. I cant take another picture cause its in auto class. -

There's your picture does this work? As far as my brakes I pumped them and saw its pouring out of my rear passenger drum. Hopefully ill pull it apart today and take a look and get it fixed by tomorrow. -

Yes it can run but the effects on performance can be drastic. -

RapidElastic replied to Suba_GL_87's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
This is difficult to understand maybe you should reword it. I put a new EGR vacuum solenoid on my car which is what you have pictured and it connected right to the EGR valve. Hope that helps, mines FI though. -

Trouble code troubleshooting
RapidElastic replied to The FNG's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
My EGR solenoid went and my fuel consumption was garbage! I pulled another one off at the autowrecker and replaced it helped lots. Ide just replace it if you can find one easily. -

help with ticking lifters
RapidElastic replied to mikewilke77's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Im going to be tackling the oil pump seal this week in auto. When i went to the subaru dealer the head mechanic said I should put one or two small 5mm washers in the oil pressure relief valve. Im guessing this would boost my pressure a bit i didnt really understand what he was getting at. Has anyone done this or advise against it? Seems like some buckshee mod that may or may not work. -
Cold Air Intake Mod?
RapidElastic replied to RapidElastic's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Besides not being heatshielded and not having a high flow filter sure ive decided i wont do it anyway. Not worth the effort. Just thought ide try and squeeze some more juice into it since it wouldnt cost me anything. Thanks for the help though! -
Cold Air Intake Mod?
RapidElastic replied to RapidElastic's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Quite true i guess for the amount of work i wont be getting much probably wont bother. And i dont want the MAF to get all finicky. -
Cold Air Intake Mod?
RapidElastic replied to RapidElastic's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
True i would have worse heat sink. If I were to cut a hole in the hood above where the filter is and place a walmart hood scoop over top then Im thinking i may get some benefit. It would look bad but the car isnt beautiful anyway. -
My friend has a K&N cold air intake on his honda civic hatchback. But after getting hit by a snowplow he is parting the car out So my question is can I fit this to my 93 loyale? And has anyone done something similiar? My main concern is getting the MAF in there. I'm going to look at it later today. If anyone has advice or info it would be much appreciated!
