I am parting out an 87 syncro that had the drive train removed. It is mostly complete minus drive train, diff lock panel, instrument cluster, and driver's...
Given the vaporized-antifreeze smell, I vote for the rear heater core. When we had ours replaced, the tech said he couldn't see any leak in the old one, but...
On a recent 700 mile trip, I noticed a slight growling noise I thought to be a u-joint or brake problem. About half-way through the trip I jacked up and...
