Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Found the rad cap under the warning sticker bubbling and leaking, which hopefully is the *only* reason the Bordeaux has been overheating here and there on occasion the last few weeks. What are the odds that I can have a cheap fix for the first time ever?
 Ordered the new cap and should be here shortly!

Took my '94 Pearl to get annual Utah safety inspection and emissions today-- passed with no problems. Whew! Now back to the garage for another year...

Pulled my radiator so it can hopefully be repaired this morning. Is coolant usually murky or is this a pretty bad sign?

Kinda cloudy, but still quite green.
Um, "opaque".

Collect some of it and see if it settles into water and oil layers.

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Replaced the dash cluster to correct an inoperable tachometer. Volla, the car now has 30,000 less miles on it.
Gene (I recorded both milage readings even though I'm not going to sell it)

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Took a dozen pictures of my dents, dings rust and so forth for 'the shop' to inspect. Will anxiously await hearing back... I want to go for the Swiss Ruby Mica Pearl #247 color... or however close I can get to a crimson red.
Yes, it really needs paint.... :
