    I know, I know, but I needed a half ton.

    Thanks for the tips, sounds like a bit of work but better than a full price compressor swap.

    I did the same thing you did, and you're right, there is almost no room to work with. At least you got your A/C back! I am glad the parts fit your truck! Did you replace the bearing as well?
    That sound is from the A.I.R. injection pump, it pumps air into the exhaust the heat up the cat. converters faster.

    No, Popped the face off, brushed out all the rubber gunk...wiped it down with liquid silicon on a rag, hit it with canned air and put the new one on...I think you'd have to pull the whole front side of the compressor on a 2.7L engine to get at that ring that is hell to get in and out when you do the bearing...

    Morning everyone! Looks like it's gonna be a beautiful day, I do have to jump in the pond later to take out the dock for the season, but I think we got a wet suite around somewhere for that.

    Fall is here guys:bananadance::woot: I am pretty excited about that, not sure about everyone else:notsure:

    Oh, okay. I've seen a LOT of photos of the Impreza wagons having no strut towers left. It's scary.

    I never had that happen on my old one, but this one I bought because it just needed mechanical work (which is almost done).

    Should have the block back in tonight

    17 STI has 17k on it (only driven from April to October).
    2007 FJ has 181k. I bought it with 130k 3.5 years ago.
    My old 2000 impreza had 107k when I bought it and I sold it with 119k half a year later.
