Ended up upgrading to 2005 -2009 legacy alternator, didnt like the rebuilt one getting so hot.
This one is 90 amp and is putting out 14v.

I adjusted idle screw on TB 800rpms and was waiting to hear how to adjust IAC before I messed up it. Went ahead and check the IAC and it was 25.4 on computer. Loosed to screws and I could hear idle go down but computer wasnt changing. Moved IAC other way idle went up to 825, 850 and I could hear goo...

I replaced the coolant sensor this afternoon pretty easy and didnt loose much coolant. Old one looked semi corroed. Seems about the same on starting after running to tempature and then sitting to for a couple hours. I check temp with computer and it 130 degress. It has to crank over numerous times b...

I havent replaced the coolant sensor, it could be orginal.

Will I loose alot of coolant when I take this out?

Is this a dealer item or O rileys?

Thanks for tips or info.

Fires right up after sits over night. It also starts right up after I would go into store and come back out. I havent notice the smell of gas like it leaking or flodded. I notice to today if I crack the throttle if fires right off. I have to crank it after it sits for a couple of hours. i am not sur...

Helllo, I have issues with starting after driving car for for a while, then if I let it sit for 1-2 hours it has to really turn over quite a few times and then it starts. No problem if sits over night fires right up, just after driving then letting it sit for a couple hours. Not sure what it could b...

I reviewed some of the post but want to make sure I am adjusting idle correctly. My 2.2 idle lows 750 or so and its in a heavy vw van so, I just adjusted the idle screw on TB, not much and it jumped to 850 seems better. I had the diagnostic running on the computer and it seemed like the IAC value we...

Should I have the green connectors and the black connectors together when i use thiis?

Hello,

Can anyone reccomend a good book for subaru engine rebuilding, peformance,etc...
Just thought I would ask.

Thanks

I am still having issues with the alternator. It is getting very hot after short drive. So not sure what is gong on with it.

I am going to upgrade to 2005-2009 legacy alternator.

Dealer had it in stock and changed it out last night. It was leaking pretty good. O ring was all dry and cracked.

Thanks for the info.

Did you check the thermostat?

I noticed this is leaking and wondering if it is the same seal as in the front behind cam pulley? I have extra cams seals but not sure if same as the front.

I want to replace, but never have had this part off any advice? tips?

I still have some howling or whinning bearing sounds. I am replacing Power steering pump next.

My alternator was getting noisy and I bought an O Rileys and installed and my battery light was on, on first start up. Returned O Rileys for bearings and rebuilt installed new brearings and nice and smooth. Here are few pics http://i555.photobucket.com/albums/jj449/imtb/alt1_zps4af4d50b.jpg http://i...

CC can is complete, routed third hose from catch can to intake tube. I drove the van in today and check the hoses and surprised by how much gunk was in the hose from the crank case breather. The hoses to the Intake tube and PVC vavle were clean. You can kind of see in the pic. http://i555.photobucke...

Would it be better to take one from CC to the intake tube where I can it off? I can picture this and guess it would pull more out of the crank case and be filtered throught the CC, instead of with just the PVC valve like I have it now.
Man your pretty observant that you caught that.

No hose going to the intake tube from CC, i capped the spot on the intake tube. Shiny spot in t bottom pic hard to see.

The intake tube has two hoses one from each valve cover and that it.

Last night I removed the line running up to the intake tube and plugged it. Now the crankcase breather is running through catch can and into PVC valve. Here are the pics. No chance to test drive, waiting on my 02 sensor. Here is hose running up to intake tube. http://i555.photobucket.com/albums/jj44...

I was wondering about the the hoese that run up the intake tube.

Lets see some pics of the three catch cans.

Here is my set up, generic catch can removed oil level site tube and plugged holes it was leaking air. Then I stuffed the inside with stainless steel scouring pad. Installed and fired up and you could see the moisture immediatly in the line from crankcase, but line going to intake clean. It did seem...

O2 is hooked up, but I didnt try clearing the codes. I oreded a new one since this one is pretty gummed up.

I gues the ecu just runs in defualt mode since O2 not working? Maybe this is why plugs so clean.

Just got this in and I do not have CEL hooked up, I am super stoked, to able to see any codes. I have 92 ej22 in my VW Synco. http://i555.photobucket.com/albums/jj449/imtb/obd3_zps34b159dc.jpg http://i555.photobucket.com/albums/jj449/imtb/obd1_zps28a2af12.jpg Oxy Code http://i555.photobucket.com/alb...
