86subaru Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 (edited) did the swap with help from miles fox, everything went well , now getting odd codes, like check serviceable records, tps, did not swap the ecm also used honda bond great stuff, Edited May 26, 2009 by 86subaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmithmmx Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Reset the codes and see if anything comes back. You do not need to swap the ecu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Reset the codes and see if anything comes back. You do not need to swap the ecu Infact you just added another variable to the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted May 27, 2009 Author Share Posted May 27, 2009 yes already cleared all codes, then i shut the car off , check engine light comes back on, this time barametic pressure code, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 reaset codes, still check engine light on, car runs great , would old gas cause something weird, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 did the swap with help from miles fox, everything went well , now getting odd codes, like check serviceable records, tps, did not swap the ecm also used honda bond great stuff, Can you detail the swap a bit more? Which parts did you use? BTW, the car senses the "Honda" bond and is now retaliating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 replaced 97 outback with a 2.2 motor , a/t to a/t , the 97 had the 2.5 motor, now getting code 1143 check service notebook, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 (edited) this shows i different cause. maybe has to do with maf circuit?? http://www.troublecodes.net/Subaru/ Edited May 29, 2009 by johnceggleston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB99W Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Based on the P1143 code, ''Pressure sensor circuit range/performance problem (low input)'', the problem might be related to the barometric pressure sensor or solenoid switching valve. If the codes were there with the 2.5, it could be that the baro sensor or solenoid valve is bad, etc. They're mounted on the right (passenger side) strut tower. If the codes weren't occuring with the 2.5, I'd concentrate on related vacuum hose connections. Look at the emissions label pasted to the hood underside. Trace the vacuum hose back from the strut-mounted parts, through the filter (make sure it's not blocked), to what's engine-mounted, and make sure a hose isn't off or misconnected. It might be easier to advise you if you would give all the Pxxxx codes (not the code definitions) that have come up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Did the engine you swapped in's car have a charcoal canister under the hood or was it back on the right rear of the car like the outback? I want to say a 97 has the rear canister if you used an intake off one with it in the back of the car you will have problems. What I do when I do these swaps is gut the intake manifold except the fuel rails and then move the Throttle body, wiring harness, egr pieces and solenoids from the one intake to the other. You have to fool the car into thinking nothing changed. You should have all the pieces except the gaskets to do this as well. The fuel piping and vac pipes will all unbolt from the bottom of the intake and swap on. A couple bolt holes wont be used and the pipes might be loose in a spot or two but they will stay put and work fine. Take your time and move over carefully and it will work out. The EGR pipe will work on both engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 ok, no canister on the 95 motor i put in it was missing, the 97 did, , checked the data stream it shows timing at 15 degree, but runs great smooth, the 2 codes shows barometic problem + 1143 code check sevvice notbook, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already provided that definition, ''Pressure sensor circuit range/performance problem (low input)'' (which is a barometric problem), in post #9 of this thread. Since you said the other code you're getting is also baro-related, it would seem that's the area of the problem. The cure might be what Shawn suggested in post #10.

86subaru Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 fixed problem, took barometic pressure sensor, from car i took, motor from, they were slightly different from 95 to 97, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
