subarob

Thanks, Calebz. It's a 4-speed automatic - the only thing I don't like about it, aside from it not running. It has every option, even has the electronic height control. Only 141K miles, and it's clean! I got over 300K on the last two I've owned, and was able to fix everything myself. I checked spark on all 4 cylinders, but I would think it would at least run badly if the head gasket was blown, at least the others did, but I'll check that out.

I picked up an 88 GL-10 wagon not running at an auction so I know nothing about its background. It has an EA82 engine and full time 4WD with fuel injection, turbo and the digital dash. The fuel pressure was low (fuel ran out of the hose like a slow running faucet and it's supposed to be 60-70 psi) so I changed the fuel pump and that now the pressure is strong, but it still won't start. I am getting spark, and if I turn over the engine with the plugs out, it sprays a little gas. I used an injector tester to confirm that the injectors are getting electrical signals to activate. I'm stuck! I know nothing about turbo, and have never had a problem with fuel injection on other Subarus I've had so I don't know much about fuel injection either. Could the turbo be causing this? Do the control modules send faulty signals when they go out, or do they just not send signals? I appreciate ANY suggestions you may have.
