Ordered a new aluminum radiator.
Be here Tuesday hopefully.
Informed it will fit early Brumby's and Leone's and will fit dual elec thermo fans.
If it isn't right it can go back.
Here's hoping it doesn't need any mods to fit.
I don't have any other details till it arrives.

Just to keep this issue bubbling along, I understand L series seats fit straight into an MY but like the MY seats they are getting old so probably not much point in this direction. What I would like to know though, is do the L series seat rails bolt straight into an MY or is it only the L series sea...

The Ebay alternator may used switched power instead of permanent power like the EJ model alternators. You may find you need to run the nissan alternator off 12 volts that is only on with the ignition, so that when the engine isn't running the module in the alternator isn't drawing power from the ba...

A while ago I bought this of ebay. http://ausubaru.com.au/picture.php?albumid=19&pictureid=2465 I fitted it to the wagon soon after I bought it but had issues like what I have described within this thread. I thought it was the battery so replaced the battery. At the time I also went back to the orig...

MY EA81 starting circuit
Went to start the wagon yesterday morning and all that I could hear was what I think was the clicking of the starter solenoid. The battery is new so I rolled it off to the side of the driveway and went to work in the Suzuki Grand Vitara (daily driver). In the arvo I hopped into the wagon and if fire...

You could try hitting up FROG and see what he can find. If non in Oz, grab the part number and check partsouq.com (I think that's it, been a while since I've used it). I've used a small bit if coolant hose with a car tie to get it around the dizzy without kinking... Cheers Bennie Bennie The 5/16" f...

EA81 MY inlet manifold coolant hose
Anyone know if we can still get new ones of that pesky small coolant hose that runs from the passenger side of the inlet manifold on an EA81 and runs from the the manifold (just below where the carby bolts on to the manifold) to coolant system across towards the passenger strut tower. This is it and...

MY wagons are my 2nd favourite Subaru & there's not many left, so anything you can do to keep it & not let it get wrecked or crushed, is a good thing. Check up on current laws, I know in Vic things have changed a lot recently Can't even begin to think about wrecking/crushing the car so no danger of...

Silverbullet. Your the man !!!! From your info re the radiator thermo switch turning the main radiator fan on I thought that the thermo switch should be a normally open type and when it gets to temp the contacts close sending the circuit to earth so turning the fan on. Note - I replaced the radiator...

MY EA81 radiator cooling fans
Anyone have any knowledge on the wiring and purpose of the radiator cooling fans on an EA81 fitted with A/C and twin electric fans. The twin electric radiator cooling fans in my 82 model EA81 Touring wagon and not switching on when the coolant temp gets high preferring to blow coolant everywhere ins...

Awesome!! 8-) You could always do a club rego... Yes, thought about that but I feel that if someone is going to be a member of a club they need to be involved and take part. I don't see me being able to do this at this point in time (or there lack of - time) so was also wondering about Historic veh...

The 82 MY Touring wagon passed its 35th year of rego no problems. Even with the original carb just fitted with a new carby kit and totally un-tuned. Asked if there was anything I should be aware of coming up that may need attention and nothing, all good. 269,407 original ks on the EA81's clock. Only...
