[Oil Cooler adapters,permanent avalibility!]

Thought so...I got a set at Pep Boys. The thread is 20mm X 1.5 I believe, metric.

sold!

 

WJM, who manufactures this item? Are these the same Perma-Cool units I've seen at Pep-Boys?

I'm curious about this grounding issue? Is it a very noticeable difference in the way the car performs? Where can I fing the grounding wire?

 

My old pickup ran like S#$@ until i discovered a frayed wire that went between the valve cover and the firewall (i'm not electrically inclined, as I took physics up through kinetics and thermodynamics but not elec/magnetism)

My 98 O/B WGN does the same thing....(it's got 205,000kms).

When I'm stopped at a light in Drive with the brake on, it shudders. If I pop it into neutral it runs smooth. I tried something the other day...I parked on a hill which was steep enough to stop the car from moving forward OR backward while in drive with my foot OFF the brake...it still shuddered.

Around the same time it started shuddering, it also started shifting with a thunk from 1st to 2nd,(mostly while accelerating slowly. I drained the tranny oil and replaced it,(it hadn't been drained for over a year...60K+), and it didn't make any difference.

 

Hey CHIP...my car (99 OBW, 47,000 mi) does the exact thing you mentioned above!! have you heard what this might be yet? I just got this car and I'm considering getting an extended warranty ever since I noticed these little episodes.

I've been reading this forum and outback.org since I got my 99 legacy outback last week. Just registered and I hope to glean a lot of info on subarus!
