Try posting over on Austin's site, XT6.net. If you get really desperate, I have a set of the FSM and could send you the wiring section. But I would need a...
Hi, This is my first foray into the marvelous world of owning a Subaru. My father bought a 1990 Loyale (I live in Montreal, Quebec) and drove it all his life,...

Bonjour Jacques, ca va? I had an 89 one of these, 4WD - it is a 1.8 liter engine, horizontally opposed boxer engine - a forerunner of the newer engines - good...
Hey Jacques, the Loyale will leave all your muscle cars back there in the dust when we get the snow again - hahaha. Great in the snow and a good strong work...
I lost my code breakdown link on my bookmarks when hard drive was replaced a while back. Could someone help my restore that connection by providing me the...
Alan, Sorry I can't help you on the P041 problem, but I wanted to revisit something we talked about a while back. Remember the starter switch problem on...
... Sorry to hear about your car, and I hate to say it, but it is easy to buy Subaru cars that work for that price, so I would say you were lucky to get $50....
Can I replace the 93spfi ignition coil with the Accel 4150? Stock Subaru price is over $100cdn. Subaru and Cdn Tire lists these coils as different part...
There are two wire sets to either the neg or pos terminals. Which post has which wire pair? I have a Chilton manual but the schematic has neither pos/neg...
Just guessing here but I'd put my money on the black wires as the hot wires. Easy enough to determine. either visit a wrecking yard and take a look or turn...
I had them backwards and tried to start the engine - now the coil shows 12v on both neg/pos poles but maybe that is correct. Suppose I fried anything with the...
It's normal when the key is on to have 12V at both coil terminals. When I suggested to check the wires, I meant with the wires not connected to the coil. ...
I did test for 12V when disconnected - I was wrong once though and had tried to start the engine. Any damage possible? Still have 3psi fuel pressure, fuel...
Maybe you did damage the coil. Seems to me you should have better spark than that. Next to the coil there is mounted something called a spark amplifier or...
I think that statement is probably more specifically related to the older generation of Subarus (i.e. pre 1990) with few exceptions. In most areas -and I do...

I agree! I've bought some soobies cheap because they had a broken timing belt or something like that, and the owner was quoted a high repair estimate and...
Must be nice to know you are missed, right? I have been trying your suggestion of using 15-40 wt in the 2.2/2.5s and it works well in the warmer climes...
The Accel coil will probably be just fine but look at the Pertronix (got the spelling right this time) Flamethrower coil. Retails for about $30US and fits the...
... fieyrfli, Yes, you are correct. I am talking about the older EA82 GL/Loyales, from 85 to 94 (which is what alsilbajo had and we were discussing). Have not...
