Went to the local tractor supply store here to get a grease gun. Picked up one of those hypodermic needle adaptors for 4 bucks. Got the whole shebang for 16US...
... problems ... what kind of problems you having, mine wouldn't idle and had no power untill it warmed up found out it was a bad connection on the temp ...
Thanks Phil! That was really informative. I had no idea. So lets say the 'base' timing advance is 25 degrees stock and the ECU adjusts +/-15 max degrees...
Hi! Just found out I need a crank shaft pulley (1991 XT6 5spd 4WD). Having trouble finding one. Haven't called dealer yet. I'm sure they want too much $. Since...
Just changed the oil. Looks like Fram is using silicone antidrainback valves on the TG3682 filter for our cars. Sure enough, no more ticking on startups. Yes,...
I had the problem that mine would keep falling off. All you have to do if you have the old one is to get a new push pin 5MM and put it in the right hole on...
Thanks for your response. As usual this current mechanic isn't used to Subarus AT ALL. It went in for alternator check (the wiring on the new one was no...
I won't get it new one. Some websites to check are junkyard dog, carparts.com and xt6.org. The balancer is a composite piece. There's a steel inner hub...

The bolt will go bad long before the crank shaft. The rubber he is talking about is part of the pully. The pully is also the harmonic balancer. It helps to...
the speed selector switch went out on my six, subaru wants way too much for a set of resistors... if anyone has an extra one let me know when you can send it...
The way i understand it, side mounted filters can drain their contents while the motor is off over time. The drainback valve if present should prevent that. ...
yes, this is true... I was just making a comment about fram... I guess, I just ran enough carbon cleaner through that it eventually (over about 3 or 4 oil...
Actually, the tapping is caused when the seals in the oil pump go bad, and allow the pump to suck air. The lifters then get air in the and that is what the...
The switch is the exact same thing on the XT and XT6, so you can use one from either. I have one from an XT in mine now!! Its sometimes easier to find an XT in...
if i changed my oil and tapping decreased, i'd suspect dirty or low oil caused the tapping. dirty oil will exaccerbate tapping. i'm not going to make any...

Oh, "antiflowback valve" is made of silicone rubber. Most others use harder neoprene or some other rubber that can't make as good a seal. So, the oil tends to...

Checked into this for you. The XT6 pulley is all by it's self. The CDN$ retail is $178.71, hope you find one at a wrecker. Garry ... From: "hunny5040"...

YEs that is one way. another is to use wagon (2WD or 4WD) rears. The xt (turbo or non turbo) rears from what I have heard seem a bit anemic? never heard a ...
New member here. I have a 1989 XT6 that's been in my garage now for several years. Has a few problems and we haven't decided what to do with it. I think one...
