  1. I have an 86 4 banger parts wagon and a 88 daily driver GL10. I am thinking about pulling the 86 motor (non-turbo) and rebuilding it over the winter to put in the 88 turbo. Are these the same blocks/heads or are they different?? Can you rebuild a non-turbo motor to work on a turbo car?? Also the 86 has the low-range 5spd 4wd and the 88 has the non low-range 5spd 4wd so I wanted to swap those as well and put the 86 low range into the 88?? Can I put the low-range 5speed from the 86 non-turbo 4cyl on the 88 turbo 4cyl that currently has the 5spd 4wd without low-range?? Man, did I confuse the heck out of that question or what:banghead:
  2. I just came across this website and browsed it and I have to say this site ROCKS!!! I dig the layout and it appears you have a bunch of excellent resources that can provide answers to any question:cool: I have an 88 GL10 wagon 4wd. Its got 270,000 miles on it but still runs really well....although she does have her little idiosyncrasies (SP??). My first question is this: The car cuts out a little when I really get on the gas or its under a load going up a hill. Its nothing too serious and I havent checked the simple things yet like plugs, wires, cap/rotor, ect.. I got the car for free and the turbo was just rebuilt so I dont think it is the turbo but I no nothing about turbos so ?? My cousin said that his subaru did the same thing and it was cause the fuel lines were getting too warm??? Any ideas?? Thanks, patrick
