AndrewT, Can you let us know where you had the radiator done? Spoke to a shop about somthing like that and they just looked at me funny and said it couldn't be done (more like couldn't be bothered!) currently running the original L radiator with an EJ22 and installed an adaptor in the radiator hose ...

Spotted a few L's around Dunsborough between christmas and new year

Red Lifted L near Caves house

White Lifted L X 2 around dunsborough

White Lifted (possibly 3") L with white Subaru sticker on caves rd

Silver Lifted L Margaret River

either a landrover discovery or range rover in Joondalup this arvo....went up in flames sitting at the traffic lights, no one hurt but car burnt out completely...stuck in traffic for ages!!!!!

Love it! No more issues with 14 inch wheels effecting takeoff, drives better than the old EA82 with 13 inch rims. So much quieter...no ticking of lifters or sucking of weber. (both for sale, if not sold by mid Jan they may be free to good home!) Using as daily driver to the city (was it you I saw on...

Spotted brown L wagon at the south end of Lilburne rd Duncraig with bonnet lifted...looked like breakdown!

Coventrys sell Standard King Springs for $138 a pair for both front and back.......didn't have a listing for "Heavy Duty"? Just looked at teh King Springs web site and it to has only standard (KSRS-03 *) is it just the case that these standard springs are a bit more heavy duty than the original spri...

Thanks guys..........now I can get a tacho

Recently put an EJ22 in my L series.....there is a wire from the computer that is fo a Tacho, will this be suitable to run any off the shelf tacho? I assume it is just sending some sort of pulse signal ?

Perth.......where is the best place in perth to get some new shocks and King Springs for a lifted 1993 L sportswagon?

North of River preferably

It goes so much better than the webbered EA82, think I am going to be happy for a while longer....then again she needs new shocks all four corners and new set of rubber as only has road tyres at moment. this is the vehicle a few years back, one photo at Lucky Bay Esperence WA and the other the Yeger...

EJ22 conversion finally on the road...still have a few things to fix up but she is drivable. The chipped valve in the head has been replaced with a $20 one from the wrecker. Still need to mount computer and put all the fan back under the dash, sump guard to go back on and fuel pump to be mounted pro...

Can anyone recommend a Perth head reconditioning place? I finally got around to looking under the bonnet again........car had sat ther since Dave and Tim came to look....I connected compressed air up to the sparkplug hole and at top dead centre with valves closed there was air coming out of the exha...

I am sure you have realised you need to include an earth wire connection for the water temp sender....I learnt the hard way when I insatlled my temp sender half way along the radiator pipe and didn't think about earthing! I would be interested in your product...at this stage I have inserted 3 inches...

There must be a few different systems out there.......i have just done this and was amazed that the header of the EJ22 from a 1990 liberty wagon was very similar, only about 50mm longer and slightly (20mm) off to the passengers side pushing it more under the tailshaft. I have a 93/94 L wagon and the...

I am also considering this option in future but not too keen on having to completely remove the axle........particularly middle of winter at the end of a muddy trip!. Anyhow if i do it I was thinking of fabricating a bracket mounted on the diff that has a short axle stub on a bearing so you just swa...

I assume wet means squirt some oil in and if there is some improvement then rings are the problem?

No i havn't done wet yet, it got dark and i went in for dinner.

Also the engine was cold, the manual says to do test at operating temp but i can't imagine it would make much difference.

Dave,

Think first thing will be to take rocker cover off and see that valve springs and all that look like they are doing their job...possibly valve stuck open?
will let you know.......

Huge thanks to Dave and Tim, came around to help solve the problem...we worked out a lot of things that it wasn't and now i have a new timing belt, but problem persisted. After the guys had left i tried the only thing they thought it could be...placed the compression guage on it (worked out how to g...

Dave,

great look forward to it, i have sent PM with address.

Hopefully if you talk to Tim he may have a timing light.

I have dog training in the morning...new puppy...finishes at 11.30, will be home at 12.

when i bought my lifted L which had been done "professionally" the front fan was caught up in the metal shroud and was jamed, the previous owner hadn't realised........simply remove the shroud.
