Reviving this post cause my wagon is starting with the same issue. Has anyone come up with a solution or the cause? Currently, I unplug the and plug the wire harness to get the ECU to work. Then when it sits for a while like the next day. The wagon won't start until unplugged and plug the harness to the ECU.

So my 84 wagon turbo is foaming up the radiator and running hotter. I'm 80 percent that its head gaskets compression leaking into the cooling system. What is the best head gasket that has been used with good results? I've seen MLs (MULTI LAYER STEEL) head gaskets for newer subaru's but not for the old gens. Or should I just go with the Felpro permatorque head gasket?

Installed nee seat covers. I wasn't able to remove the head rest. So I had to slice a hole onto the seat covers and had my gf sew them back together.

I blew my left front strut on my GL wagon by hitting a huge pot hole in Utah, and we all know its impossible to none in finding the front struts. Who has has used a alternative strut or suspension set up on there GL wagons?

Does your brat have the center high beam?

New drill slotted rotors, ceramic pads and extended braided brake lines.

Calipers are out of stock. Thats on every online autoparts site.

Yes I've look at Rock Auto and does not have boot. Only the caliper pistón rebuild kit. The hunting begins on those rubber boots.

Are the EA82 brake calipers compatible with the EA81 since I can't find any calipers online for my 84 wagon. I need the rubber boot those goes to the e-brake mechanism. Or maybe I should order the later calipers and exchange all the rubber parts to my wagon calipers.

Where you get the bushing from?

Is this adjustment for the NA or Turbo engine?

Did you have to modify of the or shave any plastic to make them fit? I ask cause I had some printed also from a file online and did not fit correctly.

Rock Auto. You have to pop out the rivots on the old lifters and modify the mounting bracket just a bit.

Check you temperature switch. Unplug it and if motor stays on then you would have a bad sensor. I had that issue with my 84 wagon

That would be great. Are you making your secondary electric fan run at a cooler temperature?

My ea81 turbo wagon fan clutch is starting to fail. I try online and it seems like it never exist. I only find the electric fan. Also on my service manual it will not show the mechanical clutch fan. Anybody know of a compatible fan clutch or should I upgrade to a electric fan.

My 1984 GL Turbo at subiefest2020. The only classic one that attended.

I will get bad knock when its set at 15*. So set it at 11*+/-3 @800 rpm. Runs good but getting less mpg..

Since Im still in the oil seal department does the front differential cv joint connection have directional oil seals? And if they do, what would be the part number.

Got them. Thanks guys.

I went to two dealerships and they were clueless. Found some on eBay, lets see if they work by modifying them a bit.

So I'm searching for a valve cover grommet for my 84 Subaru wagon online but keeps coming up with newer subarus vehicles. Are they interchangeable?

I see. Does your electric fan stay in for a long period or shuts off after couple minutes. My fan stays on for a while and with 80F ambient weather.. I will do flush on Saturday and see how it goes. Thanks

So I made a temporary coolant reservoir and top off the radiator to the cap. Drove the wagon for a bit release the pressure to get the bubbles out of the hose. Still running hot. Even the electric fan is staying on for longer periods. When I open the cap to see whats going inside. I dont see any flow or resemblance of coolant flowing thru the radiator. Scratching my head now. It wasnt getting hot when it was running rich in fuel mixture about couple weeks ago. Hopefully those are hot presure air bubbles and not cusbustion leak bubbles. Needle above normal operating temperature. Usually the needle sits on the line or below it.

Ok. Ive replace the cap about a month ago with a 13 lbs. But not sure if its a recovery style. I will inspect it tomorrow and see if I could make install some kind of coolant recovery bottle.
