My first Subaru - 86 XT GL
If you plan on having a shop do the work, beware. Most of them dont know sqaut about Subaru's, especially the older ones. The disty rotor is held on by a screw, most mechs would get pissed off and try and yank it off, damaging the shaft/disty. The front brake caliper pistons need to be turned in, not pushed when replacing pads. The XT's are unique body wise, and the 88's and up had the spider intake. The tranny rpm's are normal for 4th and 5th. Depending upon the mileage, the timing belts might need to be changed (every 60K). If the mech has any strange questions or wants to charge a unusually high price to do something, get your car our of there fast. Or come here and ask first. Btw, I rolled thru Billings yesterday morning in my red 89 XT. On my way home from TN. Just over 6000mi, it ran almost flawlessly.

Anyone making a run to Spokane or coming from?
If I had known this before I left, I could have picked them up on my way back. You do have my cell number, right? You did know I was on the road, right?

XT6 won't run!! @!#&*
Might need to clear the codes also. The easy way to do it is disconnect the battery overnight.

Turbones Trip to the East Coast Update
Only had 2 issues. The first one was about 1am. It was about the size of a medium dog, but a big round ball of fur. Could have been either a coon or badger, but it made a big thud under my right front tire:rolleyes: No damage, my last second twitch must have been enough to prevent any. Didnt stop to see what it was either, really didnt want to be hit by a truck like I hit the critter. The 2nd issue was later in the morning. I was already gunshy(actually the whole trip there and back I was anticipating encounters) and when a tumbleweed flew up, hit the front and then my side of the windshield I about messed my pants. If it has been a deer, you would probably all be reading a obit:dead: Oh and after the critter encounter the air susp light on the dash kept coming on. There were no actual probs with the shocks that I could find, I would shut the key off and turn it back on and let out the clutch, no more light. This morning when I stopped for food and yes! My first mocha since leaving, I checked the lines and the light never came back on. I did stop at Mt Rushmore and CrazyHorse, I'll get the pics up in a few days. I'm still wired from driving, but I know if I lay down and close my eyes, I wont wake till sometime tomorrow.

Andrew (WagonsOnly) and I should be headed out the door shortly. Stop at Micky D's then for coffee and its the Dragon or bust! He is going to head south when we reach Sheridan, WY to go to Denver airport to pic up his Sis. She is going to make the trip back with him, see the country, etc. See you all sometime Fri:burnout:

UN-official Alcyone Dragon Meet Alternate Thread.
I'm leaving sometime early morning. I have about a 40hr trip ahead of me, so theres going to be a few pit stops. I'm shooting for WY for my first stop, hopefully it will be cooler in Sheridan to catch a nap. Then its off to Sioux Falls and Chef Tims. From there its 18.5hrs south, so I will probably need another nap in between there and Fontana Villliage. I should be rolling in about Fri late morning.....I hope. If I have time, I might give John in KY a call and get him to come, if'n I twist his arm enough:-p

Ultimate RX Power Window Problems
If your ok working with very small parts, then take the switches apart and clean them. Most times its the plugs themselfs that are the problem. Pull the door panels off and disc the plugs and clean the contacts. Check the grease on the slides and if they are looking real dry, use some good moly grease on them. If they still dont operate smoothly, you will need to remove the motors and take it apart and clean the armature/innards.
