  1. Thanks guys, i have a few things to try now. I even went to the dreaded Subaru Dealer to find a heater core and they cant order it either. although they did have an oil pump, happened to be the last one available. so I got that on the way.
  2. I have an 81 GL wagon 4x4 and the heater has always sucked and now its starting to get cold here in montana. I have a new fan on order because mine screames when i turn it on. but would the culprit be a clogged heater core? I have replaced therm a few months ago, I dont mind doing a core but were do I get one? parts stores here cant order one. And were is it located, ive not done this on a subaru before and havent looked into it yet. also leaking oil from oil filter housing adapter? on front of motor, and was looking into a new oil pump and valve adjustment b4 winter sets in. If anyone has info related Id be greatly appreciated.
  3. tap the pin out and rotate the shaft 180 degrees to see if it lines up better. I just got done with 2 new front axles , there is a slight difference in thread count between each hemisphere that the pin holes divide. I would double check that. might as well put new pins in while your down there if the originals are mushroomed in the slightest from hammering them. I dont know if it would damage bearings but I would think you would need to be near thor strength to break or bend the bearings
  4. Im looking to find a new oil pump and a few gaskets for my 81 GL wagon 1.8L 4x4, I went to orielly's and they cant even order parts. is there and internet company that sell them?
  5. if you don't buy this let me have the info for it. I have an 81 same model and everything 406-531-5337
  6. they have them at parts stores or Ace hardware. just make sure threads are same
  7. Im in need of a 4 speed trans for my 81 GL wagon dual range. If anyone has one or knows info on were to get one , 5 speed swap info or anything related to get my car up and goin please respond or send me a txt 406-531-5337. its my daily driver and i need to get it driving reliably asap. thanks, Kroaker23
  8. get a weber. my mpg went up 18-20 with the weber on it and I still need slightly bigger jets, its not too hard to install either
  9. is that common of the syncro to get burrs? also does it need gaskets or just silicone to seal the trans?
  10. it was not before. it is just stuck now. wont move much. I am thinking its a shift fork problem after the things ive read on here. going to take it out and crack it open and see whats going on next week somtime. the clutch was worn before but im not sure if that has anything to do with it or not because i can still depress the clutch pedal a couple inches
  11. ill have to try those again. are there rebuild kits available or parts or am I SOL and have to buy a new trans?
  12. I have a huge problem. its finals week and my 81 gl wagon is stuck in 3rd gear. it would stick every once in a while in 4th for the past few weeks but now it wont come out of 3rd. the cable is still connected to the are on the bell housing. linkage pins seem there and cant see anything wrong with the linkage, other than it wont hardly budge.it still drives in 3rd, 2wd and 4 hi and lo work still. Is that a shift fork out of placement? is there anything I can do short of pulling the trans? also were can I get diagrams of the transmission internal R&R? thanks
