I've had it free up many sticky items, but I agree it's not a real lubricant. Give it some credit. I like to use the WD40 to flush out the gunk and grime...
Now you've really gone too far... insulting the ultimate fix-it tool... WD-40... that'd be like saying you couldn't fix something with duck tape... ha......
It is probably one of the more mis-used chemicals out there, but as limited as they are, it's a great formula that does a lot. I have a 4 shelf stack in the...
DOH... as far as I know... WD-40 is good for EVERYTHING.... I mean, where do ya think the philosophy of "you can fix anything with a roll of duck tape and a...
I have a 1999 Legacy Outback, it likes to run hot. I checked all the fan relays and they are ok.I have a head gasket kit I'm putting in,but the code is control...
The temp fan is acting irrationally. Computer code lingo is in absolutes. It may mean that the ecu is calling for the cooling fan when there is no need for...
Also pull your ac relays to see if the fan shuts off Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry ... From: "maymaysfairlane" <maymaysfairlane@...> Date:...
Hello I am in need of a high (higher) output alternator for a Legacy 2.2 1990. The 70 amps (?) OEM is insufficient to handle the additional light and equipment...
You can use an alternator from newer models but will have to change the wiring plug. Thinking the plug shape changed after the 94 models. Don't know what the...
Look for a high output from a 98 or so Outback Limited with the cold weather package, lots of heating items on those like heated seats, mirrors, and...
I'm doing the dreaded 2.5 HG job research, and came across the recommendation that head bolts should be changed when doing a HG job on a 2.5l soobie... can...
Manual says to replace the bolts, I haven't replaced them yet. There are two things at the back of the engine that might leak oil, replace them both while you...
rear oil leak is the plastic seperator plate. Replace it with a metal one. DO NOT mess with the main seal in the rear. They are very hard to install correctly...
Ok, I thought it said to replace them, I could be wrong. It's not uncommon to replace head bolts. If mine does say to replace, it's Haynes, I don't have the...
My mechanic replaced the bolts; says they're non-retorqueable (as opposed to the ones on my Vette, where the manufacturer says they ARE - and you have to...
i'll have to find my haynes manual now. i know on steel heads with steel block you did because they could stretch and yield. I can never find the page in...
If you look up a head gasket set at either the Advance Auto Parts, or AutoZone web sites, both give recommendations that it is highly advised to replace the...
Yes dealer items only. If your not a huge rush use one of the online dealers. And the way Hardware was going I would only get bolts that are this important...
ARP from a reliable source makes great bolts, re-usable and guaranteed. FEL-Pro makes nice gaskets if you don't use their low-end ones, but their re-torquable...
Does anyone know if there is a part that can easily be added to keep small stones from getting into the brake calipers? Several times a year, one gets in there...
I purchased head gaskets from the dealer, about $40 each. I added the crank and cam seals to the order, as well as the timing belt. There were a few other...
I've found when you have a stone issue like this it's often the rotor shield holding it, not the brake caliper itself. One of your shields is probably bent...
You must have read my mind, because my next question was gonna be whether to get just the gaskets I needed, the ones you mentioned, plus prolly the intake and...
Yes getting them at an online dealer is like getting them at a sooby dealer, because they are sooby dealers. Also i find using that ancient technology works...
So, reading between the lines... I'm getting that you think I should call a soobie dealer and ask them to put me together a head gasket job kit, to include...
A little history. IN 1995 the emission requirements changed. They got tighter and we went to OBDII. When emissions get tighter, combustion pressures and...
Ahh yes, intake and exhaust gaskets. Again, as was recommended, I would have forgotten them had it not been for the smart guy behind the parts counter, they...
