emissions trouble w/f.i. EA82
it's the coolant temp sensor for the ECU it's located in the coolant crossover pipe that runs by the intake. it has the same plug as a fuel injector. the wiring/ harness is more often bad than the sensor is. autozone, etc. sells these connectors with 6-8 inches of wire for less than 10 bucks. also have seen the wires soldered right to the sensor, eliminating the easy to corrode connector.

Swap the Fan / Dead Fan Clutch \ Retrofitting?
Sure! I feel pretty good about it. It's designed to upgrade a car with mechanical fans. Much better than my ailing electric fan. It was very tired. This fan is also reversible for use on the other side of the radiator. Alabama summers get pretty warm too. And this did fine.I'll try and find the paperwork on it.

General Subaru noob dumb questions
I like the hatch pretty good too. with a set of fender mirrors for flash! the legacy I like best is the 2000-ish one. still i think EA wagon had much more character than a 1g legacy wagon. but the SS has to be the sedan I liked the looks of. sorry to the original poster for the Off Topic!

General Subaru noob dumb questions
heh they always included "girly hands" in the tools list for how-to articles on the ford ZX2 forum. not like it was really all that bad in the engine bay, but it was always funny. I think the forum was simply heavy handed, and ham fisted. GD, do you have any EA82 bodies in your "stable" I only have experience with the pointy nosed variety but I find that that chassis seems fairly stiff for the weight and the suspension is easy to work on (I did my coil over sleeves with no spring compressors and never even removed the rear wheels, much better than the Escort Z which had to have most of the rear interior removed to even gain acces to the rear strut tops.) I get it on the engine. there's so much in there I hope to never have to touch.

General Subaru noob dumb questions
GD is absolutely right. just one problem. 1st gen legacies make me sick to look at (save a sedan here and there with some serious time into the looks department.) I have two XTs because I love the funky styling and with the MPFI and good aerodynamics they are entertaining enough on the street. if they had carburetors I might have shot myself in the foot already. (TBI swap! go!) the EA82 wagon sedan and especially the 3 door coupe, are all much better looking than a first or second gen legacy to me. if you are wanting to have an easy off road experience then listen to GD. if you want to buy a car you like because you like it then do that. you can always sell it in a year and buy a legacy. (or the much better shaped impreza) is this car you are looking a wagon, sedan, or coupe?

EA82 cold start problem
Yah there's a fuel injector in that throttle body.

Terrible Sound
wheel bearing is my first guess. I did them myself but I have a fair bit of wrenching experience. you can land a used hub from a junkyard which will be easier to install. welcome to USMB.

4 to 5 lug confusion - 94 Loyale
did he try the Chevy cavalier option? or is that for the fronts?

4 to 5 lug confusion - 94 Loyale
With the rear you're suck with xt6 parts. You also need xt6 front control arms, our the ability to team the ball joint mount on the ea82 arms. You seem to be reading the right posts. (i have my rear swap ready to go just need front stuff, and some )

88 subaru gl with ecm issues
Ecm has nothing to do with headlights. But if I pull the headlight fuse in the interior fuse box by the driver door my headlight goes dim. So check that.

I can't wait for snow either now that I have a 4wd xt. We only really get a dusting one a year or so. But I still can't wait!
