  1. Thanks Al Being located in italy, the last thing you want to do is go with aftermarket, it would make passing the bi-anual state inspection a real hassle. and I have to do it right now... Your story about a clamp to the bodywork holding up the whole thing around the headers-central pipe joint confirms my suspicions that it is indeed missing in my car. Will appreciate if somebody could post a pic of that area... Thanks T-guzzi
  2. Hello All After a few weeks with an increasing exhaust noice from the left/front of my 92 legacy, the headers have finally and fully cracked. It happened on the left side indeed, right after the two pipes coming down from the cyl. head join a single tube. It's only now that I realize that the same happened on the right side and its been already welded. Welding it back shouldnt be a problem. What surprises me is: 1. Havent found any threads on this on the forum, is it an uncommon problem? 2. With all the weight of the cat and rest of the collector bending these welds, no wonder they break. My car has no strap to support the weight, let say, after the cat chamber. is it just missing? 3. Anybody knows of a kit or DIY solution for a support to better carry the collector assembly weight? Cheers T-Guzzi
  3. Thanks to all who helped with advice here! Bought a 92' 2L 5spd AWD (European model) with 60K miles ten days ago and already put in it another 2K! Very happy so far, runs like a dream but a few questions: 1. A bit confused about the FWD fuse. Do all manual, 5spd AWD have this fuse or is it just an option? There doesn’t seem to be one in my car. 2. Headlights washer doesn’t work and pressing the button dims the lights, pump stuck I guess. Any experience with that? Links to a diagram? 3. Still on the headlights washer, any idea how are the sprinkling nozzles attached to the bumper? Would like to dismantle these for cleaning. Links to a diagram? Cheers from Milan, Italy
  4. Hello All Thanks for the extra and encouraging info. Hope that my next posting will be as an owner! Cheeers T-G
  5. Hi short lid. Yes, shoot. I run a 89' GSXR1100 (that makes more power than the legacy I intend to buy ) + a host of others. Restored my share of british classics too. Actually I need this legacy to tow my bike trailer... OLS. its 105K kilometers = about 60K miles. I converted for you "americani" I am spoilt for choice: one is 1250$ (1000 euros) but a bit scruffy body wise, another at 2500$ but unbelivable well kept, one lady owner, not a scratch. both have 60K Miles and are manual. Then there is another but automatic at 2000$, 65K. Still no info on any proper tech site or buyers guide? Got very little from searching google. Cheers T-G
  6. Hello All I am deep into motorcycles (see nick), done from the ground up restorations, so quite technical. Yet, I want to buy a 92 legacy GL SW with 60K miles and do not know much about problems points, what to check etc. Any help/tips will be appreciated. I am in Italy, hence motor is 2.0. Any links for model history, tech info? Cheers turboguzzi PS If anybody has any motorcycle mechanics questions, I'll be glad to help
