Exup1000

Morning everyone,specially gambit miggs and jay) So I've got a blow the the driver side manifold area, not got under there yet and mines a twin turbo so could be a number of gaskets.i was just wondering is there a gasket that's always the common one to go on these.chances are once I start I'll end up replacing them all! So I got in this morning and started it up, the fuel pump has always had that buzz but now it's intermittent, is it on its way out? I don't want it cutting out while I'm racing gsxr 600's not that I did that the other day! Last one I've got two recirc valves on mine as it's a a twin.lots of people say to leave it standard and never touch the one on the second turbo which I totally agree with but the first one is on the intercooler just like a normal scooby, so could I change this to a BOV or will I be causing twin turbo problems ?..? Have a Good Friday !Removed!, I love you all in a weird sexual way

Funny as, totally wasn't expecting that

Yeah im on the border of hampshire/surrey, so way to far for me.Scooby Pete you sexual hamster,we're not to far from each other really .maybe we're bare it in mind and see who else is near us for a future meet?

Coarse

Yeah mate do what Pete said first.but I've done quite a few head gaskets in my younger days and it sounds like it but we all hope it isn't good luck mate and think about things logically. Ps) how do check for creamy oil in the head on the flat fours ?

Mate, I put them on ebay two weeks running £ 30 the pair and nothing. You forget how big shocks are until you have a pair laying on the spare room floor

Well they came free with the car, and their taking up the spare room floor as we live in a maisonette and don't really have the space.if no one wants them, I might have to take them to the tip

Sorry dudes, I should o posted this in the general section.done it off the phone and must of slip with the finger, you know what I mean

On Tuesday miggs,sorry i didnt let you know.i used the cam gear you sent as we had to tap and pri the old one off which took a good hour and over night soaking. Car was done just in time so I could use it for band rehearsal

So thanks to miggs and my brother in law,between us we've got the car back on the road.i done the pulley wheel with new woodruff and bolt and cam gear ( from miggs) cambelt,all of the pulleys/ tensioner. Oil seal on pump, thermostat, oil cross over pipe jncluding hoses and oil filter change.iand I just washed all the greasy hand prints off her. Thanks again miggs

That's cool,I just wanted to check.ive got millers fully synthetic.so I'll change it for the winter

Just want to know what the normal engine oil used in the 2.0 litre turbo is.reason I ask is that I just picked up my cambelt kit, and I thought I'd get the oil/ filter while I was there and the dude gave me 10w 60 ?

I've got two rear shocks for a legacy that will defo fit the mk2,their standard and In Fair condition. They came spare with my car,so I don't need them.their free of charge, and I can post some pictures if your interested.

I do say scooby but mostly it's subaru,is coz I'm posh?

Well done mate, it's a pretty cool achievement and deserves respect

the drip is quite quick once the oil is warm and although theres enough oil in the engine,I'm In area so it has to be done. plus I've just ordered a Kevler 2 timing belt @ £155 so I'm not taking that f@@ker back off once its fitted.

Cheers for that mate

Just doing the timing belt on the car and I've got an oil leak. ( which I knew about) it looks like its coming from the oil pump but not 100% yet. Is this a common fault and if so is it normally the gasket that needs re sealing/ replalcing or something else?

Miggs make a very good point. I have read some many threads of people re using belts to same money.some do get away with it I guess,but it's the main thing that keeps it all together and isn't worth the risk EVER

What he said

Cheers mate ;)

Need to get a timing belt kit ASAP.i found a recipt with my car history but there was no mention of a full kit and the price did not reflect this, so I'm replacing the lot while I'm in there. I don't want a cheap kit, it's not that I'm made of money ( the wife is) its that I'd rather put the best I can on there I can. Found gates and cosworth so far, I heard though that some gates belt aren't all that i'e their racing belts. What's everyone using ?

That's cool mate,funnily nor am I, I'd rather have a protien shake. Two pints and I'm well on my way! Speak to you tomorrow mate

Miggs,if you wouldn't mind putting the other wheels in as we'll, I'd really appreciate it.and we're sort out p&p through pm ing each other ( that's not a youthanism gambit ! ) once again miggs a massive MASSIVE thank you.if I'm ever your way or you mine, there be a beer with your name on it. Hopefully we're meet up a club meet at some point !
