BirdLoyale93 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 The other night I drove my (93' Subaru Loyale 5 Speed Manual Wagon 1.8 EA82) for about 2 hours while it was raining out. AC on the entire time. The next day I went to start her up... Nothing It just cranks, and will not start... Here is a list of everything I have tried so far: Battery: good (tried jumping with my other Subie) Alternator: good Starter: good (clicks everytime I turn the ignition key) Spark Test: No spark even after I put a new distributor rotor on... I'm confused about timing... any tips would help. Distributor Rotor: I've put a new one on. I also checked to see if it was spinning when I cranked the motor to make sure it wasn't a timing belt issue. Ignition coil: good (also put a new one on) Still no spark... Distributor Cap: This is what I'll be changing out today... Hoping this gets a spark. If i'm missing anything please help inform me! I'm new to this so forgive me if some of this doesn't make sense. Any tips would help! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colemanapp Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Its been raining a lot here too. If you think its possible something got wet, I'd open the hood and run a fan on to attempt to dry things out. I'm pretty sure my distributor rubber gasket was trashed and led to some non starting after washing the motor. worth a shot if you have a dry spot and a fan.

Olnick Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Hi BirdLoyale and welcome to the USMB. You should post your questions in the "Older Generation" forum--that's where pre-EJ series Subarus are discussed. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
