Hi everyone. Finally got my timing belts and pulleys and tensioners for my xt6. its at my mechanics house. my mechanic asked me for info on lining up the ...
I have a car which could be a parts car. It is a 1991 automatic front wheel drive. I plan to take the standard suspension out and replace the bad air system...
The flywheel has two sets of marks that can be viewed through an inspection port located top of the bellhousing. Ignore the ignition timing marks and keep...
If the attachment makes it, not good at this stuff, it will show the procedure for the EA82 engine. Identical to your engine except your engine has one...
we have moved xt6.net to: http://subaruxt.com/forum/ we also have the Subaru XT Factory Service Manual links on the site. i'm a moderator, send me a note if...
looks like the attachment made it JL - though i didn't try to open it (dial up). if for some reason it didn't open - you could send it to her email rather...
Gary, We'll see what happens. That attachment is a write-up with photos that Miles contributed years ago. Blew out a knee 10 days ago and the darn thing still...
I forwared the info you guys sent so far to my mechanic. Hopefully that will be enough. Thanks very much for you help everyone!!! gslong <gflong@...>...
I do apologies for being A.W.O.L. for SO long but all kinds of things have transpired since I was on last. I am having a bit of trouble out of my XT. I have...
... I'd be looking for a bad ground connection from the battery to the engine and/or frame of the car. Something is loose or corroded. I think this might...
That's a great Idea. I do appreciate it Bill. I've just been frustrated with this whole situation and we all know how that can cloud a person's mind when one...
Likely problems: Alternator - have it tested. Many places (autozone, advanced) will test them for free Alternator plug - they are notoriously old and out of...
Those voltage surges you mentioned means the alternator, or at least the internal voltage regulator, is going out. Attempting to charge a dead battery with...
I went outside tonight and checked my battery, it came out as fully charged, I am getting power to my trunk light but no other lights are coming on. When I...
This is weird. Remove the fuse panel and inspect the backside. Slim possibility the "main bus bar" has melted. Only other possibility I can think of based...
You need to inspect the connector that hangs just above the pedal assembly (brake pedal, etc). Not only look at it but go ahead and disconnect and reconnect...
I just did the timing belts and water pump on my XT6 ER27. I highly recommend that you either get the tool for the left hand (drivers side) timing belt...
Jeff - use one of those right angle screw drivers available at Sears (or elsewhere). They work wonderful.  screw the retaining screw with the tensoiner in...
O.K., I disconnected every wire that I could and reconnected it. Still no dice. I'm still just wondering why things like me headlight motor, horn and trunk...
Actually don't think the horn and headlight circuits run through the fuse panel. Could be wrong but don't think either is fused. Check the wiring circuits at...
Gary, Thanks for the tip! I think I already have some of the right angle drivers but I am interested in the clip also. Let me know if you want to sell it. A...
I looked for any damaged, melted, or even dry rotted parts and they all look to be in great shape. I'm suprised that the connectors are still as maliable as...
Hey Gary? What is the link for those pics that you said that you were gonna' take? I know that you are still hurting from your knee so if it is too big of a...
Only takes a few minutes to unbolt the fuse panel and inspect the backside for damage. Unplug the wiring harness for the ignition switch and check the big red...
LOL. Sorry about the confusion with the knee and all. LOL. Anyway, I'll try to check the wiring tonight when it cools down to just under 100 deg. F here in...
I can honestly say that I've never lived anywhere in California, but I have been through many parts of it. Why do you ask? Please don't tell me I had another...
