Make sure you check the firewall for any missing plugs. Especially if you took the AC out or if you don't have one. The seal for the Evaporator lines is right behind the downpipe. It can suck a lot of fumes in from there.

ok the check engine light came on like a week ago, i scanned it with my obd2 reader and it says "fan performance" i erased it and the next day it came back on while at a drive through, so it sounds like the cooling fans arnt working very well, should i get them replaced? Fail. I'm sorry I...

Sorry about the whole making knocking worse but you can prolly call up the dealership and see what is book time to pull the motor. Considering this is the time the shops are supposed to use to know how much to charge. Just try to find out what they are charging for everything because you can always ...

um...... What? What code is it? Which fan is it?

You sure it's not spark knock? Could be and injector going out and the cylinder isn't getting enough fuel to where the cylinder is just knocking? If it was a bearings I would assume that it would be knocking no matter where the rpm's are. For being quoted five grand to have your motor pulled and reb...

Ahh, ok. I need to stop reading for tonight. Everything is starting to run in to each other and turn into lines. Figured that was why he was asking if the wiring would just plug into each other. Being an OBD II ecu, Couldn't Biggreen96 splice or swap the wires to the correct terminals for the sensor...

Anything worth having is going to always be a little more work

I bet the firmware isn't that secured to where you can just use a hex editor to change the serial number it needs to look for. But not having a G3, the firmware, nor the software :roll: can't really say much. But any who, How much power are you going for Josh, or are you trying to go for and EMU to ...

I wish I still had my imprezza to look but, wouldn't a gas tank from a newer subaru fit? Considering they are all AWD now and 15.9 Gallons.

This is off topic but wouldn't replacing the headgasket be easier than, if it can work, to swap heads and motor?

The FSM for the '91 is showing that it has the delay APM. Also what I found out with my sending unit on the pump side is that the arm for the float has a lot of play. Making it loose contact with the circuit bord that causes the resistance. I just popped the arm out of the clip so it will push the t...

In the trunk on the left hand side "driver side". It should be near the power antenna. Has two plugs in it.

ahh ok

Are you talking about the Key warning chime???? It look like it's in the Combination meter like Lego said but it runs through the Automatic seat belt control unit. Try unplugging the big plug on the control unit and see if that stops the dinger. If so, the books shows it is terminal 4 on that plug t...

What are you having done to the intake?

How bad of a miss fire, random or out of the same cylinder? Check engine light? Any who, check the coil, compression, and injector. How did the other plug look like when you took it out?

How about a roll bar behind the front seats?Rather than a full 6 or 8 PT rollcage? Would a rollbar help that much in a crash? Which way are you crashing? A roll cage is just that. A cage that is designed in case you were to roll the car. It will keep the roof from collapsing in on you. Especially i...

I came across it while googling the part number for the piston pin removal tool from my factory service manual since the dealership told me they don't order tools. 1stsubaruparts has it from about $144! I was able to get mine out with a hanger, but for every job there is a right tool to use :roll:

Nice setup indeed, but for a weird one. I think having a H6 in an EVO would be weird.

I'm sure you can always drill holes and make other adjustments, but that is prolly more work than it really needs to be

I'm reminded of an ex gf. She had an S2000. I mentioned to her that the rear tires were getting down there, and she should look at replacing them. Not too long after that it was raining real heavy one morning, she hydroplaned, the ass spun around and tagged a center concrete guard rail. At least sh...

If you can find somewhere to steam clean the engine bay. It might help you find where the leak is that is causing the oil vapor to get on the turbo.

you sure that's the parking switch sticking and not enough fluid in the brake master cylinder? 121 MPH ehh.... slow Just playing

ahh ok. Some of the old military vehicles had it too. Mostly for the hubs.
