  1. Have the same problem with my switch. Exact same color and set up. I have to play with button until it stays on. Will have to try the coin trick or take it apart and clean it.
  2. And yes is the front main seal needing replacement.
  3. I got my weber from ebay. Had mine istalled for a few years now no problems good little carbs.
  4. Glad i can shed some light on this topic. Good luck.
  5. Ok so i just went out adjusted my carb and got car running again. I removed the filter from weber and push on the gas. The butterflies would fully open. I wnet and started messing with the electrick choke adjusted and was able to get the butterflies to a closing point. I did this while engine was stone cold. The car started right up. I then let the car run for about 10 minutes so it can warm up. When engine was warm and butterflies were fully ooen i shut off engine so i can then adjust the 1 air screw my weber has. I firt bottomed out the screw and came back 2 1/2 turns. Them i restarted engine. From there you back up screw and listen closely to the idle and turn screw until you get your maximum idle. When air screw was adjusted i the adjusted the idle control screw and brought my idle rpms down a bit. Now i will let the engine get stone cold again and see of my adjustment worked. I will bring an update soon.
  6. My 84 had been doing the same lately too. I have a weber on my EA81 and my guess mine needs a cleaning and possibly an adjustment.
  7. Cheap Treasure for $200.. Furthest ive ever towed a project suby was from N Utah to Denver CO. Thanks for sharing.
  8. Hello, Here in Colorado i have my 84 DL with classic plates. I cant drive my car more than 4500 miles a year witch i dont anyway. I paid $80 for 5 year tags. And next time i have to renew my tags i will not have to do an emissions test on it since name on registration will not change. Basically i can shop up my engine and exhaust and not worry about passing emissions. Hope this helps.
  9. Thanks i never taken my shify to any car meet i will have to consider it. I did go to the Aurora junkyard but there was nothing of value i seen on that 69. Its been there for a while many parts were missing.
  10. You can easily find a donut/spare at a junkyard. Just pop the hoods and walaa.
  11. Heads up! I just seen a 1986 L line subaru at the Pull and Pay in Auroras website. i will try to go scope it out tomorrow. its only been there 1 day. Hopefully theres tons of good parts.
  12. Sparkyboy.. i was there last week and i wanted to take the wheels. I did take one off but when i seen the dent on the inside if the rim i decided to leave them alone.
  13. Looks like tail lamps are gone. I can possibly get you the rear view mirror.
  14. Bumpers look nice. Im From Denver too..might have to take a trip to the junkyard. Thanks for sharing.
  15. Hello Steptoe Under my outer air vent (grilled section) is were the one factory speaker of my car lives. And on the shifter boot that is how i bought the car. Car came 99% with original parts. I even have the original manuals and glove box key!
  16. Here you go. If you are using stock carburetor cable should be on right if you are looking at it.
  17. Hello I have an 84 Dl that would spray oil on hood too. It ended needing a new front main seal. I think with belt and rotating pulleys it would spray everywhere. Hope this helps.
  18. Well thats enough Subaru porn for one day...
  19. Hello. Is the front of engine dirty with oil too? If so it couls be the front main oil seal. I have a EA81 that leaked from front and back mail seals. Also check the oil pressure sensor its located by the bottom kinda hidden by crankshaft pulley. Now ive dealt with two types of EA81's. The oil pressures censors can be different depending on model of subaru for example the model with just the low oil indicator light on dash will have a smaller oil pressures sesor vs the one with the actual pressure gauge on dash. That one has a bigger pressure sensor with a floater in it. This bigger version of sensor was broken and was dumping oil like no ones business. This is were i found my leaks come from. Here you will find the two different oil pressure sensors. If you have the oil gauge on dash then it could be possible the sensor is broken or loose. Hope this helps.

  21. HAPPY ENDING: finally after months of looking i found a stock radion on ebay for $25 "as is" for $25 i took the chance and bought it. Just installed it on 2/9/19 and it work better than the one that died on me. Now my project is back to 95% original....
