el_freddo Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 What have you done to your subi, is it bog standard or have you tweaked a few things?? I'm not sure how to interpretate those sounds you're trying to make, did something bad happen or did the ticking lifters go quiet at 95mph?

Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 if... ... the ticking lifters go quiet at 95mph? ... ...Then the Oil pump is Worn... and if the T.O.D. is sung for too much time, the Hydro Lifters will go Worn too... But That Trends to be somehow "Usual" on EA82's... Gotta Lovin' those Cars! Kind Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gokoolab Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Does adjusting throttle cable down really give u more power? Are u just adjusting idle? Will u idle at higher rpm now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does when it's adjusted so poorly that it doesn't open all the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6 Star Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Tick tick tick tick... ddddd .... prrrrrrrrrnnnn at 95 Rislone (don't know if thats spelled right) will fix sticky lifters and quit the ticking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallasooby Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 I wasn't gettin full throttle. I was wondering why it had no power.. I had almost a half inch slack in the cable.. I replaced the mickey mouse gasket in the oil pump.. that didn't help the TOD, it kinda comes and goes.. probably need to adjust the HLA's and the little o rings everyone talks about. Do i need to remove the engine to do that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
