It actually is a crap shoot. Mine had a knock for 5 minutes then went away. 1000 miles later all hell broke loose in a rather exciting way.

Check the tranny mount Both my subarus idle as smooth as silk (dont kno9w about the Justy yet)

Original drive axles?

Oh thats easy http://www.drive.subaru.com/spr03_earlyhistory.htm http://bringatrailer.com/2010/12/15/clean-and-weird-1976-subaru-gf-sedan/ http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1913 http://vintage-original-ads.com/Pictures/displayimage.php?pid=72

repost please with a good url

Altenator. Bench test is useless and a waste of everyones time. You are missing the proper test actually. start the car and rev it to 1800RPM or more. Turn EVERYTHING on, and i do mean everything. Take the voltage reading. Don't by the cheapest rebuild you can find, you will regret it.

4WD justies live in the pacific northwest. You have to be anal about maintanence and it has a few weak spots. The CVT got a bad rap as it was drivers who killed it. A 4wd with a cvt would be so sweet. They did come in four doors and are quick for thier class.

What did they call a tuneup?

Dont know yet. He spent a lot of time parked and i am making up for those sins. It is the CVT so it should push 38/40 No AC but a little car with plenty of air flow.

The justy will never see road salt if i can help it. There is a log list of what has been done to him, but i may pay someone for the last few mechanical steps.

Well it looks like my investment may pay off. 1989 Justy 30K Whats left Finish cleaning up my wiring (alarm and electric locks and cruise). i may not get it all done before it goes on the road, but may have no choo=ice) Set up the carb (i hate OBDI). It is almost done (plug in green connectors and disconnect everything) 4 new tires Replace timing belt and leaking seal Have an exhaust system built Thermostat Maybe a catalytic converter (I dont know if the early ones suffer from sitting) a real Stereo.\ Some kind of trailer hitch with a 3rd class receiver for my bike rack. Gas starts heading towards 4.50 a gallon Blu will have to come off the road until it drops again.

#1 reason, the trailer adapter. #2 is a bad bulb that has shorted out and is backfeeding.

Yes if you overheat the engine you can damage the oil depending how long you baked the engine. 2.5's have the problem vs 2.2.

If you removed the TC with the engine, you may have damaged the input shaft seal. Do a stall test, I think you may have messed something up. Put the car in drive while running. Stand on the brake pedal. Give the car throttle. The engine rpm reached should be shy of 3000 RPM. Stall Test Results Higher than normal RPM indicates one or more of the following: • Slippage of the forward clutch • O.W.C. not holding • Low/Reverse brake slipping • Overall low line pressure Lower than normal RPM indicates one or more of the following: • Incorrect throttle adjustment • Poor engine operation • Torque converter stator slippage will cause higher RPM. This sounds like the converter is not in properly. http://www.tciauto.com/Products/TechInfo/torque_converters_explained.asp

Define "pullies"

I'm on the opposit end. Replacements are hard to move by hand. At that mileage, since you can do your own work, get them off ebay and replace them.

WD 40 is not what you want. You want some liquid wrench, and let it soak, then re apply, then soak, then try.

He may have put some stress on the parking pawl, but I doubt any damage was done.

Not for the 20 feet to move the car.

No damage to engine. That is where you look when you have checked everything else. Nothing left after that.

the seal is leaking due to engine vacume. It is leaking into the booster and the engine is burning it. You never rebuild a MC you just replace it.

YAY we love simple issues. Still replace the cap just because. Get one at parts store unless the dealers is cheap.

Google it and find out.

A tail wind, a sail, going down a steep mountain all help with performance. If you want to remove the engine and and make a hot engine, then the sky and your wallet are the limits. There is quite a lot out there for the 2.22, as the 2.5 is built (DOHC) right to the edge of the power they can support.
