Subaru EA71 Engine Parts

The Subaru EA71 is a 1.6 litre horizontally opposed four with pushrod OHV valvegear and eight valves, carburettor fed and naturally aspirated. Subaru used it through the late 1970s and into the 1980s in the Leone and the Brumby utility. Water pump, bearings and a ring set make up most of what is listed.We list 6 parts for the EA71.

Bearings and pin bush sets

Main and conrod bearing sets are listed, along with a small end pin bush set. Several of these are catalogued across the EA62 to EA82 range, which is how the supplier files them rather than a claim that one set covers every engine. Pin bushes need honing to the gudgeon pin once they have been pressed into the rod.

EA71 water pump

The water pump here is listed for the EA65 and the EA71, and it also sits under the L Series category. Clean the housing face back to bare metal before the new gasket goes on.

Rings and the rest of the EA71 stock

A ring set is listed for this engine as well. Bores wander on an old flat four, so gauge each one before you settle on a ring size.
