Sell various L series 4WD CV shafts

one front shaft, never used, so new. I'm told its not the best of brands though, so selling for $50 should still get value out of that.(less than 1/2 new price) SOLD another front shaft, its been well used, and still good. The boots are good, ifirc, the boots have no wear as i replaced them so read...

You really want the whole car so you can transfer the fuel tank, pump and lines. Swap the entire wiring loom and then the motor. A kinda big job for only about 10hp gain yes, while that is ideal, it will work without the fuel tank and lines swap. your 1990 subaru will have 3 fuel lines back to the ...

Try this: you have that SLA battery, use it to power the meter,
GREEN and WHITE as you say. Then do a voltage measurement using RED and BLACK. Let us know how it reads then8)

the meter needs to be powered by an independent ground source.

i'm thinking diverting eyes off the road, watching that meter, while your boot is putting the boost on and your going faster.....not a good idea:eek: buzzer idea is good, but the implementation would require a comparator circuit, or maybe just a transistor switch, can't just connect a buzzer to such...

you will need something like a logic probe that can catch fast digital pulses and give a LED indication of the pulses or an oscilloscope. Not surprised a digital multimeter doesn't show any voltage change, they usually take nearly a second for a analog/digital conversion. If your meter has a frequen...

the pre-heater relies on exhaust heat, so at start up that reason is typically
moot.
and so just use less throttle at start if your worried about economy.
The biggest factor in your fuel economy is your driving foot you know......

unless if your in sub 15degC region much, I doubt the pre-heater does much good.
Cooler air, means more dense air, more oxygen hence improved combustion and more power. I recall removing mine on the L, and not being the worse without it. Has me now thinking, there is no preheater on the EJ engine ?

Power Steering leak - 98 OBW

contemplating doing something about power steering leak.
Been adding the so called stop leak fluid, but :rolleyes:

so is there any tips on what exactly to do about it, what seals replace
etc, looks to be quite a job to get at it......
might be easier if I pull the engine out maybe?

Thanks

How did you go wiring the CDI into I'm assuming an early RX Turbos ignition system ? Would it have been an MSD 6A or 6AL etc ? A . very good question, because I suspect you know about how the ea ignition module works? The CDI was none of those, it was a ETI342. It was first used in a prior car that...

i recall using MSD Blaster 3 coil with my ea82T. It worked fantastic on its own, however I mostly used a CDI to drive it, which meant conserving the ignition module drive power.....something i think your concerned about i think if its failing ? IMHO, the GTR40 coils etc i tried were complete, utter ...
