Bro

I am selling an EA81 engine in Australia, and just wanted to know if it's normal practice to sell with, or without the clutch ? Thanks

cool, thanks 85sub4WD, now I understand .

Thanks Ed , so the other jet fires when ?

Hitachi carb, when opening the throttle from under the hood, when should the second jet start working ? I rev it up, but only squirting out the main jet. Excuse my lack of knowledge....newbie here

Thanks Bob, do you know the name of this shop ?

I have no idea if the carb has been serviced, but it does have this orange sealer on two of the screws ! And the top gasket dosn't look too good. Looks like a re-build ? or will I try the top off clean, and new gasket ?

Good Morning, I have just done an EA81 engine swap into my81 wagon and had problems with the carb. It was suggested on here to use some carb cleaner, and it worked ok for a couple of days. Now it's running rough again so I decided to give it another hit with the carb cleaner. I know you shouldn't spray around the carb with engine running ( have fire extinguisher handy ) but when I do the idle increases. Does this indicate a leak ? All feedback welcome :-\

Sorry to hijack but also for the EA81 would be nice

thanks a mill, worked like a charm. Thanks:)

Is it possible to remove the steering lock (Ignition switch) from the column ? 2 screws are phillips head and the other 2 are blanks. Is there a way to remove them ? Many thanks

I have about a drop a week seeping from the bottom corner of the head gasket. Is there a fix for such a small leak ?, or is it a whole gasket job ?

thanks, In the next couple of weeks, I will put all this theory into practice. Wish me luck

I was told you need to keep them filled !

? Is there a way to store a radiator so it wont scale and block ?

thanks guys

Is there one for the EA81 ? or is the standard the only option ? Thanks

excellent writeup man, thanks a billion :cool: p.s. hti-johnson - the transmission is a single range that I'm swapping for a dual range.

Look's like that's the one......I just gave it some herbs and it's idling fine. Thanks mate :cool:

Hi, Over the weekend with the help of my wife, swapped over MY81 EA81 to my wagon. Fired it up and it run great, drove for a mile or so, then took it out for another drive. But it just kept stalling, running really rough at idle now but seems ok when I give some gas. I checked everything again and noticed the feul filter not filling (only fills to the filter element). So I swapped over pump and filter setup from the donor, and the same thing. I'm sure I remember the filter always being full. Please can someone help us ? :-\

Is there a guide on USMB ? Or a thread with one. I have been searching and hour, here and google. Anyone ?

What would you use to clean the interior ie. inside door trim. It's faded to two/tone. Is there a way to clean or re-paint ?

I have no idea why Subaru Australia named it after a wild horse ? (that's what a wild horse in Australia is called)They must of been after an Australian thing. When I'm looking for info, I aussie google Brumby and get all horse tihs edit: read last word backwards

In Australia Subaru call the Brat the Brumby. And I have seen them called Leone Brumbys down here

What a ripper, where in OZ are these little beauties available from mate ?

Thanks MilesFox I have had a few conflicting responses on 3 seperate Subaru Forums from members with alot of posts and alot of recommendations. 2 people say how they have done it numerous times, without any lift to the car and it's easy. And 2 now that say that it's not the way to go, it's a pain in the arse. :-\
