What can I do to clean my loyale tank of gunk and rust
88SubGL replied to Issac's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
You could take it to a radiator shop and see if they can clean it for you. -
4wd fuse on 1985 gl wagon 4x4
88SubGL replied to Ladyofdoom's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I think in 1985 it only came with either a push button 4wd or a dual range 4wd, both of which are not full time, so no fuse to pull. Post a picture of your shifter to now which setup you have. -

1980 BRAT DL Fuel Pump Issue
88SubGL replied to Dawson Muth's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If it’s the original alternator, have it tested and if needed have it rebuilt. Better than the aftermarket junk. -

There is a small coolant under the intake.

85 Subaru Brat 4wd No spark from Coil
88SubGL replied to MrBrat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
That’s an EA81 isn’t it? No timing belt. -
EJ it. Lots of information here about it.

I have an ‘85 Nissan pickup that had 400,000 miles on it before I opened it up after it blew a head gasket. I bought it with 75,000 miles on it and used whatever was the cheapest oil and filter I could find, including Fram filters, and changed the oil every 3,000 miles. I was surprised to find the factory crosshatching in the cylinders. Cleaned up the pistons, re-ringed it, new bearings, timing set and head reworked and it runs as good as when I first bought it. Point being, based on my personal experience, it’s much less about brands than frequency. I also have an ‘04 Frontier with 281,000, an ‘04 Tahoe with 212,000 and a ‘15 Legacy with 148,000. All running strong.

1986 Justy 4WD -- Engine ID Help?
88SubGL replied to Rooster47's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t think that’s a Justy. -
Is my Brat a dog? Underpowered?
88SubGL replied to UnorganizedMechanic's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If it’s built right, there’s no reason to baby it. Drive it like you stole it, it’ll help seat the rings. -
EJ it and have some fun.
