  1. Alright next time my little subie is in portland I am for sure coming to you guys! And we can diagnose all my problems. Cause i want to keep her around for awhile. in the meantime here are some pictures of the engine bay and a couple ? i have.
  2. Wait what kind of performance are we talking. 5th gear sucks, I can barely hold speed. Climbing hills is terrible and i have to downshift a bunch. My top speed is like 65 mph. And acceleration is extremely slow. Also I get about 17-18mpg. Will those things be fixed?
  3. Oh god just watching a couple videos of rebuilding carbs, I don't think I could do it. I would not know how to put it back together. Maybe it is just better to buy a new one and bolt it on. I could get this Weber and just buy an adapter plate, fuel filter, and air filter and be good to go?
  4. What are the tires on that and what size steelies?
  5. or how much would it cost to have you rebuild when for me? If i paid you to find one and rebuild it for me? then ship it to me and I put it on?
  6. alright. here's the deal. I am from portland originally. I will be back out this summer visiting parents, family and friends for atleast a week. Would you be willing to help me? otherwise who is in the southwest montana region?!
  7. haha well not for long at least. like a week at most. Can i drop in a new carb like in one day?
  8. So you will be willing to help with all my problems ahahaha. I use my car daily so i can't have it out of commision.
  9. it's hard finding stuff local cause i live in a little town an hour outside of bozeman montana. and their craigslist sucks! but I heard of a junk yard so i might go poke around there. are carbs hard to rebuild?
  10. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Weber-32-36-DGEV-Carburetor-Honda-Civic-spacer-/330686321445?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item4cfe70d325#ht_500wt_1202 so that?
  11. I have no idea what to look for!?! little help?
  12. Yay or nay to getting a weber carb for my 87 gl? I have a craptachi and it really is. My car has been dying randomly when driving, it did for 30 minutes today, so when i was getting it going and pured a little gas down the carb to get her going and it went vroom and then died. Then when i did that i noticed gas dripping out the bottom of the carb onto the engine???????!!?!?! is that bad? I think my problem with my car just dying is an old fuel filter which i will check tomorrow. I know a weber carb will help and it is a necessity to have if I plan on keeping my car around. but $320 is a lot to fork out. I would feel more comfortable spending around $150. Weber carb subaru that is the only carb I could find. Do you know anywhere else I could get one? and how easy is it to swap?
  13. i have actual slack in the pedal where it just wiggles. I think the clutch cable is not tight enough on the engine side. gonna play with it more tomorrow. and try to pick up a return spring. cause no where online sells them -.-
  14. Okay sorry about that. dumb me i went back out right after I posted that and figured it out. everything is back in place. Now to figure out how much play i need int he clutch pedal. Also where in the heck did i put my j hook for my battery!?
  15. alright i finally have the part! Seems easy to put on. but how do i remove the old clutch cable rubber coating piece? Does it just lift up? i dont see a bolt or anything holding it on? please respond asap, trying to get this done tonight! Thanks!
  16. Stupid ************ing thmotorsports. not shipping out and giving me difficulties. Re ordered the part from a different place and should ship out tomorrow and hopefully get here by the end of the week. I just want to drive my baby again!
  17. Ran the seafoam. didnt do much cause right when i got the car i ran carb cleaner through the whole thing and it smoked a lot. I think my loss of power might be from oil burning?
  18. Yeah this is how i feel. It looks like i havent had one for awhile. Maybe i can drop one it. We will see
  19. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Alright so i think i may understand now. Where the ************ did my spring go then? Obviously i had to have one to use my clutch right? But I never saw one when i looked down at the fork? What car was that you were showing me on? Because the fork didn't look all that similar to mine. Either way thank you for going above and beyond and showing me a video! My new cable should be coming this week and I have a buddy helping me install it i think so hopefully all goes well.
  20. alright. hopefully i get it right. man i am nervous. I still dont know what spring i should get then. can someone show me a better picture. im more of a hands on visual person.
  21. I think i saw it actually. is it connected to the other side of the fork? cause there was another cable running to a spring mechanism mounted along the left front wheel well i believe. kinda low.
  22. What size would it be? so i know for when i go to the hardwear store.
  23. Will the return spring come on the new cable i ordered?
