How would you fix a gas tank puncture?
The stuff that TomR was talking about is what I have. Works pretty well on the smaller stuff. Have you considered another tank? Rob

84 Subaru 4WD Turbowagon
Glad you were able to get the car going again. The EA81T can be pretty finiky to say the least. The flasher unit is in that general area, if you turn the flashers on it will help you locate it. I'm thinking its above the fuse box. Rob

OMG theres JDM stuff for our cars
Ok, I did some searching and found this link to an article from April of 2002. Granted, its 1 1/2yrs old, but the info answers alot of questions (and myths). http://www.autospeed.com/cms/A_1338/article.html Rob

OMG theres JDM stuff for our cars
I would love to back to Japan and see if they have wrecking yards there like we do. Travel all over the Island picking up stuff along the way, then shipping it back to the PNW. I could probably retire off the proceeds:D Hey Honey, I'm going to the JR, be back in a month. Rob

How do i remove the bumper frame
According to my 86 FSM, the holes are hiding behind the wiring harnesses for the lights. You need to move them to access the holes. Rob

HELP!!! Serious help needed with 4wd 3AT
Adam, theres a pin actuated electrically on the left side of the tranny. This is what puts it in 4wd. You might have sheared it off (I've seen one like this). I dont know if the tranny has a locking center, I doubt it. Rob

Oil Fill Cap
Is this on the turbo wagon? Its a sealed system, so everything needs to be tight. Once in a while my 84 turbo coupe dipstick pops out a little, but hasnt caused the engine to run bad. But a loose oil cap could cause rough running. Rob

Heater/overheating problem 1987 gl-10
I also agree its a digidash thing. It seems the more power drawn from the system the higher the gauge reads. But you also say the fan isnt moving much air either. I would check your ducts, make sure there arnt somethings in there plugging them(mouse nests and such). Rob

new water pump and it runs hotter??
Did you mess with the hoses at the firewall? There is an in & out for the heater hoses. Rob

Subaru Calendars
I suggest 3 different versions. Your standard mudflinging edition, the classy street edition and the Rally edition. It might be easier to have the pic party on-line. Rob

GLF-5 Windshield
The swap is doable, just need the motor and tranny. I'm not sure what is on the front for suspension, but it should be easy to upgrade to the EA81 if its not already. I have a couple WS, let me know if you want one, $50. Rob
