  1. Pulley is ordered. Thanks for that tip about car-part! Although my account is new to the forum, I've been a lurker on here for a few years and I think I remember seeing that site dropped on a few other threads. I just never ordered anything for myself until now because the site looks like it hasn't been updated since 2004 so it kinda sketched me out.
  2. Hello everyone, I'm new here! There's a few things going on with my GL, but I went ahead and titled this with my current highest priority for my car. I have a 1981 Subaru GL 4WD Wagon, about 200,000 original miles, been in my family for decades. Love the car, as I'm sure most of you love your old gen Subies. Mine however, was unfortunately involved in a front end accident recently. The engine appears to be okay, no new leaks, still cranks fine, but it won't start. Damage luckily appears limited to my hood, front left headlight lenses, AC condenser, radiator, and crankshaft pulley, but with the no start symptom and no blown fuses (that I can find) I fear something expensive or perhaps even fatal has happened in my engine. The crankshaft itself feels solid, it doesn't shift back and forth or wobble so I'm crossing my fingers that internally most everything is still okay, but obviously won't know until I dive a little bit deeper I'm already planning on performing a compression test on the engine, and this next week I'm going to find a moment to drop the oil pan and examine the bearing lands. Any other tests or diagnostics I haven't thought of to run on my engine are more than appreciated I went ahead and attached an image of my pulley, as you can see my crankshaft bolt appears to have survived somehow, so I think I'm just in need of a replacement pulley. EA81 engine, I think this is what's known as the "3-pulley design" but I'm not sure
