ivans imports

Even with all the right tools for the job is very hard every time I hate this job and do alot a 3/4 impact helps and a kent moore hub remover installer tool kitt helps also a 20 ton press and berring knife. It cost 350 $ + for me to change that berring if I can get the bolts out for trailing arms and knukle bolt. This is #1 on my not favort jobs list

simple and carb Did you say that ! lol darn carbs no o2 to tune them. CFM wise a 350 -450 cfm carb about right a square bore carb. They make tbi units now that ecu injectors sensers all part of the tbi unit thats made to look like stock carb

Yes machine heads when i surface them there is always a low spot on bottom of heads you can realy see how bad they are when i take the first cutt

change valves surface heads good to go carfull to not drag out the torque converter when pulling engine likes to stick to back of engine i hold it back with screwdriver thru axsess hole on ps top of block

can o worms find right engine or switch heads over and use thick 2.2 headgaskets from ej2.2 T

have a 05 forester motor 1500$ 200psi comp on all four and 20 heads if need parts. changing valves is not a waste of time if engine was in good nick but change or check them all before reinstall. Is not mutch saved time doing heads in car it takes me 22 minutes to pull motor and engine can be put on engine stand and can be rotated to help geting heads off. Installing heads in car not mutch fun

why not use gm tbi unit from some kinda v8 or v6 give it signal from ej s injector pulse and try that out

have piles of cly heads if need one

3 stage press in must be supported when pressing in spindle to berring assembly

No will not fitt totaly different units A delay into gear is a very commen problem have a few that have been doing this for 5 years or better one thats been doing it for 150000kms no problems. Give it time to warm up helps and try changing the screwon fillter on side of trans use a subaru fillter as it has a anti drainback valve biult in

The spindle was damaged and they reused it get new spindle the rear berrings are 3 stage press in is real pain even with all the right tools is very diffacult job to do right

well have reused over 200 sets of head bolts with no problems funny thing is only ever had headbolt problems with new bolts that were subpar materials that broke or failed. Hmm china steel or japan steel unless you are buying subaru head bolts have had 0 luck with aftermarket ones exepet arp studs.

See how long the oil light took to turn off anymore than 1 second engine is toast start looking for a motor

I got them thru gillbert auto parts bought the last 10 in canada hoping they make more I think the duralast ones is usa equivelant

Have engines / cores if need parts bottom end berrings I bett

Seadan or wagon ? the rating is not as importat as how mutch weight VS how good the backend of your car sticks to road the worry is having the trailer push your back end around or out on you a sedan is light on back end wagon better for towing.

Had a forester with a water bubble hanging around the pump screen made a nice pocket around the pu screen and whould not let feul into pump. '" it keeps surging but gets better when i turn " the pocket that pump sits in if crap gets in is very hard for it to get out. Try somthing simple like a bottle of gasline anti freeze

sounds like you sheared the end of the band off or smoked the forward clutch pack are you shure its not defaulted into 3rd ? default is 3rd and reverse only

I use the felpro one as they are slightly thicker witch acomadates the head surfacing better i find the subaru ones are very thin and after planing makes the piston very close to head. as far as longevity they all seem to last the same i glue mine with avionic form a gasket to insalate the gasket from heat and coolant. This works well i never install them dry. I have tryed all kinds of gaskets none seem any better than the rest as far as holding up.

check ujionts before condeming trans

i changed a set last week I use part # Neapco 1-0430 ujiont for nissan works good is a real pain to change but doabble took me forever to find that ujiont. I use a air chisel with ujiont head on it works well
