espey_16

So last November I blew a head gasget going home from town. Well the car has been sitting since January. Could someone please walk me through the process of doing my head, exaust, intake , and valve cover gasgets? I dont have the money to get the heads checked at a shop, so Im going to pull heads off a different ea81 and use them. do I need to get new studs for the intake, exaust, heads, and valve covers? And can I do this without messing with the vaccume lines, like pull the intake/ carb off together? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank You:)

I think I need to replace my heater core too, because it only blows out cold air

This sucks the engine started knocking really bad, and and steam started pouring out from the hood. I parked it on the side of the road because I knew it wouldn't make it up the hill just ahead. I don't mind doing this, I just don't want to deal with those darn vaccume lines.

I was coming home from court this morning and didn't think to check my water level, and blew my passenger side head gasket. It is always one thing after another. But I need to pull the engine any way so I can fix a bad oil leak and put a new clutch in. I think I'm going to reseal the whole engine.

I think I found out part of the problem. Today I tried to tighten the castle nut down on the problem side and the threads on my cv axle stripped right off.

This is the # for hubs? Why are they so expensive?

1982 Subaru Gl 2wd 5spd EA-81

will any front hubs off an older sub work

The cvs are new though, the splines keep getting stripped out inside

Does anyone know the part number for front wheel hubs, because my subaru keeps eating them alive and the auto parts store says they cant get them without the number

Try wheeling without doors and your rims flipped inside out:brow:

My friend Daimen and I were just talking about that last night

!!!OUCH!!!

First whats the difference between a Subaru GL, and a Subaru DL? Second I heard you could put the cam and heads from an EA-71 into an EA-81 to up the horse power, is this true?

Go with gorilla glue. My friend slashed one of his 35/12.5 baja claws while wheelin and put gorilla glue in the cut and the tire works like a dream

Is it $10 per vid?

I'm starting to hate my 2 wheel drive suby, on the way to pick up a cake for my friends birth day I striped out another wheel hub on the driver side. luckily a friend picked me up and i snaged another off my old 4x4 sub. The cv axle is still good though. Is the hub designed to strip before the axle? This is the second time its happened on that side.

I think it's an EA-81 just because the engine is used all over the world for experimental air craft, so why couldn't they use it on a boat

Can I get a pic of the socket please?

On my 86 GL I had no doors and got pulled over twice, but not for the doors. As long as you have proper restraints they shouldn't be able to do anything. I got pulled over for having my stock rims flipped inside out so the tires stuck out the fenders.

Ok I had an extra caliper in front of me and the computer, I haven't done this on the car yet. I was using a pair of channel locks to turn it.

Ok I can turn it but it dosn't look like its moving into the caliper

Ok this should be simple, but how do you compress the pistin in the brake calipers? I tried useing a c-clamp but that didn't work.

thats pretty cool, I bet it helps out alot

those struts on his soob are sweet:brow:
