beans

i swapped the return and vent line so far it hasnt drained out any gas.!!

keep the ac lines from the 84 and lines from the donor.. at work we have ac line compression fittings that you can connect the lines with.. ill take a picture of one tomorrow at work and post it for you.. only problem i see is if the lines from each car are different diameters..

ok thats a possibility but would it cause gas to leak out everytime it is ran or just everynow and then.. and also would it cause all the gas in the tank to pour out.

ok got the separator out.. now cleaning it.. what would you reccomend cleaning it with

i suppose that is what i will do. ill let you know if it changes anything. i have hanyes books and factory repair books.. but where is the fuel separator on a 86

im not sure about vaccum lines. it possible... i dont know if it matters but the motor is a 93 ej 22.. also i have been running without a gas cap

alright i have a 1986 subaru gl wagon. i have swapped a ej22 into it.. since the swap the car will piss gas out the canister at random points in time.. please help i will drain the whole tank and that gets costly.. anythoughts will help

alright so i have myself an 86 gl wagon on my hands that i recently swapped and ej22 into from a 1993 legacy.. i have been driving it for a while and i have most of the problems worked out... knock on wood... anyway i am looking to clean up the wiring and get a couple things connected... i want to get the tach hooked up.. but looking at the cluster im not so sure where i would hook the wire from the ecu so some help there would be nice.. also there is an oil pressure gauge on the cluster and im not sure if i can hook anything to that but if i can i wouldnt mind doing it... also does anyone know if there is a conversion for the larger tires to know how fast you might be going.. any help on these things would be great.. thank much

so what you are saying is i should just take the gas cap off but leave it on.. and drive it like that for a week or soo and that should fix it? and do you know why or how that fixes it.. its confusing to me..

so since i finished the swap i have been driving the car just around town to make sure i have all the problems out of it.. well i found one.. i drove it today and when i came out of the store it was pouring gas out of the canister. the canister was full of gas. after i shut the car off the pressure slowly when down in the fuel rail and it stopped leaking out.. what could this be.. i know there are some solenoids that could be the cause.. what are your thoughts

i had the black wire wired wrong so it wasnt going through the diode on the charge light.

problem fixed.. thanks much

i recently did a ej 22 swap and have been helped with other problems. but as i work on it i find more small problems.. this one is kind of essential to driving.. the alternator isnt charging the battery.. so im pretty sure it is because of the wiring.. i havent hooked up the black wire to anything simply because im not sure where to hook it to.. i have a 1986 subaru gl wagon. i assume it needs to go to a charging light on the dash but there is no charging light i know of.. also i know with the light there is a diode so i dont think i can hook it up to any old light and have it work.. please help i want to drive this thing.

i figured it out.. i never cut the old fuel pump out of the system.. so it was restricting flow.. i put a new line in completely cutting out the pump and now it runs and runs and i love ej swaps.. the car has power its great thanks much

i checked for 12 volts to the fuel pump when it is running.. i have 11.7 volts. it stays at 11.7 volts until the car dies then it goes to zero..
