Any EA82 enthusiasts in Tucson feel like helping a subaru/wrenching newbie?

 

My 88 GL SPFI D/R 5 speed wagon runs pretty well. But the basic nickel and dime game has begun and I could use some input and advice, or even just encouragement. it would be cool to meet another person with old school subaru love.

I'm in Page - only 7 hours away! A guy just called me from down your way who owns about 6 or 7 soobs- keep posting,

Welcome! Great to see another Suby owner from AZ on the board. I live about an hour and a half south of Tucson.

I thought this thread was in the older gen forum, but maybe it wasn't...or maybe it was.

 

Thanks for the replies. Wish you guys were closer. Sierra vista isn't that far...but its not that close either! Ever come into Tucson?

 

Anyway, I'm nearing a breaking point here. I love the sub, it meets most of my needs. But as has been stated here many times, unless one has the means to work on these cars oneself, they're just not economical to keep around. I've read plenty and would like to do work myself, I just don't have any experience. I do have a decent mechanic, but he doesn't know the EA82 platform.

 

 

So, I need some help. I'm no pain in the rump roast pariah. I have cash and I have beer. Anybody out there willing to meet up and give some input? Or direct me towards an EA82 mechanic in Tucson? Cheers.
