[IT'S DONE! Swapped EJ22 for EJ25 in '97 Outback]

no, I'm just stuck I think. Just have to try and make lemonade with a 2.2

 

It was definately a foolish moment of weakness. Bums me out because I know better.

 

I'll say this: if I can do this swap I'll take a buttload of pics and put them on here for other people to reference. It may be a while.

Well, for what it's worth I just confirmed the bubbles in the coolant bottle.

 

I got screwed by a used car dealer because I bought first and did homework second. My own stupid fault. Thus the official beginning of the swap mission.

 

going to drive my 88 DL-which does not have a factory defect-to some junkyards and a mechanic friend's shop now.

I had a really good look under that hood for the first time with the idea of doing this swap and I think this is probably way too complicated-sorry to say. I'm really sucking at life this last week...what a costly, foolish mistake.
