  1. Sure, I only charge $20hr and my choice of beer. I use the purple cleaner you can buy at the auto stores. Then rinse with water and finish off with the wire wheel and a quick spray of clearcoat.
  2. Mine just had a standard metal toggle switch. Up was top up and down was top down. Sorry, no pics.
  3. I dont think mine does, its a 92. What year is yours, if you know? Got the bad trans out today, now I need a couple days break The replacement is getting a scrubbing.
  4. Usually only the turbo models had 4.
  5. The hub with the washers on it doesnt look like a XT6 hub, besides having the outer race still on it(?). The rusty hub looks like a XT6 hub to me. Thats a strange morphadite setup for sure.
  6. Well, it took me a while to figure out how to setup mine. I did use regular inkjet paper (thick!) and it was hard to get light thru it. But I sandwiched the original in 2 pieces of glass - 11x8, then taped the blank paper on top. I used a florescent light and set the glass on top. It was still fuzzy, thats why I dont have any sharp lines. If I had some thinner paper it would probably look sharper. Thinking of doing my hatch next.
  7. I sold it to someone who could take real good care of it.
  8. I suggest you pick yourself up a fire extinguisher now
  9. Mine was in pretty good shape. It did have the bottoms of the quarter panels behind the doors rusted out, but its a easy fix. It had a brand new top and other goodies. Won Peoples Choice-Sedan/Coupe last year at WCSS11
  10. Well, shot a short vid today after pulling it under my canopy :-\
  11. Yup, the black fuse is the main/primary ignition fuse. Every time I go to the wrecking yards, I make sure I check the box and pull the links if they are there. I'll look thru my stash and see how many I got left. Ok, I can send one to you. Just PM me your addy.
  12. According to that map, its Federal land. If the Feds dont wanting you crossing/fording the streams, I suspect they will either post a sign or close the road down. I've been in that area and there are several stream crossings. When it rains heavy or the snow is melting, there are creeks running every where. But please tread lightly.
  13. Dave inspired me today. I was also bored
  14. I think you missed your true calling
  15. This is the original post.. To the OP (if he returns), we just dont have the resources here to help with this request.
  16. I replaced the top electrical unit on the IAC and it helped some, but it still throws a code. But its running better and I can keep the idle down with the occasional blip of the throttle. But you know what happens when you fix one problem? Yeah, something else rears its ugly head This one isnt engine related (almost wish it was) but drivetrain. I was hoping it would last a little longer than it did, but I'm never easy on my equipment. The front diff went out on me today on my home from a Wed night meet. I was still about 4mi from home, a lot of it uphill. When it went crunch, I pulled over to listen to it. Clutch in, clutch out.......lots of noise :-\ It even locked up on me when I tried rolling forward and reverse. About the 7th time of letting out the clutch it rolled but still rattled, but I decided to take a chance. Made it all the way home, only stopping once at a stop sign. Now I get to do a tranny swap
  17. Ok, finally getting some where. First off, the ECS light is different than the Engine/Ign light on the dash. Once I hooked up the signal wire from the ECU to the correct EA harness wire(which I had to trace from the board on the dash), I got a code, hura! Popped out a 24 code, the IAC..........go figure Capt r came by today and we did a quick test on his IAC. We unplugged it and the car idle decreased but didnt die, basically what mine did. I tested the power to my IAC and its good, 11v+ The ohms at the IAC was 10.5 when it was supposed to be 9, so I'm swapping it out for another one that tested at 9ohms. Hopefully this will do the trick (fingers/toes crossed)
  18. You can read about my swap into my RX. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=110912
  19. If you have some way to apply suction to the vac advance diaphragm, that may tell you if its bad or not.
