the_bard Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 You were probably looking for http://www.cybrrpartspro.com/Chilton%20Manuals/8797m/8797.HTML . They've since redone their webpage, and that link's gone :-\. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partsman Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Try this guy's website - I printed off the EA-82 stuff and put it in a binder. It's the important pieces of an '89 FSM. Can't speak to the other links. http://finleyweb.net/default.asp?id=142 He has ultralight planes, so he only posted the parts that relate to the engine and engine management.

I've been trying to accomplish the same thing on my 92 Loyale. So far I've broken two strap wrenches (one was supposedly designed for removing crank pulleys) and I still can't get my crank pulley off. Although I've gotten lots of advice from here, I can't seem to make it work. Dianalee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its a manual, you have a few options. 1- Brace rachet and long breaker bar against fender and bump the key(not recommended by me) 2- Get the tool from subaru $$ 3- Drill a hole in the top of the bellhousing and drop a screwdriver or something through it into the hole in the flywheel. (note, I don't suggest using a punch.. they break.. I have a crappy old phillips screwdriver that is the perfect size that I keep around just for this.) #3 is my preferred way of doing it. Thank you to moosens for the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you to moosens for the idea. On my 88 DL with the auto trans, i just pulled the black rubber boot on the flywheel and cranked the motor by hand till i got to the notch and jammed a good screwdriver (flathead) in and the pulley came off really easy. Thanks again to all who responded to me the repair went really rather smothe was just diffucult cause i had never done that before on a subby Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Pull a plug, and fill the cylinder with nylon rope - make sure it's on the compressions stroke. Remove bolt. Remove rope. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you to moosens for the idea. What is "the tool" (as in how does is work and would I really have better luck with it) and how much does it cost? I'm going to have to do this again (replace the timing belt) in 60,000 miles, right? That's about a year for me and I would like it to be easier next time or I will find myself putting it off. I did try jamming a screwdriver in the flexplate and now my timing window is bigger. I'm thinking of putting a curtain over it and plants in front.
