  1. I noticed a lot of water in cargo area rear quarter wells. I removed the rear interior panels and washer unit. I see a drip and looking up under the wells see it is coming from the plastic press in fasteners that hold the black ABS plastic trim under the rear panel windows. That is crazy. the window is dry all around, this is a hole through the rear quarter. There is no rust it just drips down the expanding plastic trim thing. Looked further and all 4 on each side leaking although not as bad. I managed to cap the bad leak with 1/4 inch thread protector cap filled with LEXEL sealant but can not reach all. The problem I have is how do you remove the exterior trim around cargo windows. For that matter what is best way for all the window/side trim to be removed? There is a lot of plastic on GL that was omitted on my 93 parts car. I think later model trim was bolted in, access from interior. looking for manual now any help would be appreciated.
  2. sorry for the huge image... any thoughts experience with this trouble shoot so I don't screw it up? Thank You all
  3. This is the trouble shoot for fuel pump. The first ? is do you listen to relay to see if its working like in test mode? To access the relay you have to unbolt control unit. Will the relay work if ECU control unit is not grounded (installed)? To further trouble shoot you need to test control unit blade l/b. I assume you unplug the relay connector and checkfor voltage? It seems the ecu should be installed (grounded) to do this. The final test is similer but checking for resistance and I have the same ?'s about the test
  4. That is good news. I have been searching site and found a vauge post from MILES bout the relay being under the driver side dash behind the ECU. I assume thats the big silver Hitachi unit with three studs bolting it on. I have traced the wires to a plug board on passenger side. The plug the pump wires go into are routed to a bundle which go to driver side. Bad thing is I can not tell new color wires from the other side of plug that the blue and grey encased white fuel pump wires go to. I just know all wires are routed to the driver side. I dropped the ECU and there were two relays, one brown one blue just like MILES post. I got 12v reading on the brown plug and pulled the fuel pump fuse to no effect. The blue relay was supposed to be ignition so I got 12v on it and pulled ign/fuel fuse and it dropped to 0v. My Haynes book shows the fuel pump fuse to be the first one I pulled. It is labled fuelpump on fuse panel. MILES posted the brown relay as the fuel pump controler. The Haynes manual wire diagram shows no plug between relay and fuse so no help at all. Where is the dang thing for sure and how do you test it? I just love Subarus realy I do but Haynes might work for rebuilding a front end but this is starting to be weird. BTW I powered up the fuel pump with a M/C battery and started her up and revved to 4000 rpm... Thanks for the help but I am still unsure where relay is and how to test it!
  5. Where is the fuel pump relay on the 90-94 loyals with fuel injection? This is a 94 tbi 1.8L ea82 thanks
  6. I did trace wires they do not go to a relay they go to a plug. Does the spfi control unit on this last year of ea82 Loyales run the fuel pump? I will check with the dealer as his techs are off @ 3:00. I am aware of the green test plugs and this is my next step. I did a very close trace of these wires though and it is not where Haynes said it would be...
  7. My 94 Loyale lost a little power started up and ran rough then will not start. I pour a little gas down TBI (full tank) after checking fuses and it fires up. I got it home and read it has a relay to check. It does not. I traced wires from pump to a plug board where about 4 plugs connect together under pass dash. Parts stores do not list a fuel pump relay for a 94 1.8 tbi and there is no power @ pump key on. What controls my fuel pump because it is not working! bh
