  1. will the fuel pump and wires from the fuel pump to the tank plate from a 92 loyale wagon fit my 93 legacy? it looks like the tank plates are different.but i dont need that part.
  2. i think i would be lucky to even find a sub around here in a junkyard. there is only one that i have seen locally and its a stick. plus it is older. i am unsure of what model it even is. so this repair can be done without pulling the trans or totally rebuilding it? what parts would i need? a clutch pack from the donor? a gasket and maybe some fluid? the tires are in pretty good shape. they are still pretty new. and a matched set. if i have to rebuild it i would probably just get a new set of clutches seals and or whatever else to put back in it. if it was a reasonable price. as far as bumps i have now four of the things. i have one that i bought just to get the transmission out of. i also got a 71 4x4 i traded the trans out of the first truck to trade in to get the 4x4. i just got the trans put in the 2wd and amgoing to try and resale it now. i dont need another 2wd. my other two bumps havent been touched. i did put a new bed on my 67 about two weeks ago. it has a minor bit of fixable rust and no dents. it looks pretty good. i traded a 390 w/automatic for the bed. lets see what else i can read hear before i do to much more. its been nice to hear from you though. i had almost forgot about you.
  3. it does it in very few turns. it doesnt always happen. i am usually the passenger when the car is on the road. so i cant really describe full turns or not. the only time i could get it to do it today was when we backed up from behind my truck and made a slight turn to the leftto get out on the street and go around the truck parking place.
  4. ok i got it started by being an american. itapped ont he top of the fuel pump plate with a hammer. we droveit around the block a few times with the fuse inthe fwd position. it did not make the clunking. i then took the fuse out and was able to get the clunking to come back. so i am looking at a solinoid or stck clutch packs inthe rear of the transmission?
  5. i just talked to the dealer. and gave them the vin to look up parts for my fuel pump. they can order it. but dont have it. it was 384.99. i better jump right on that deal huh? but i asked them about the rear end. this is what they said. the turbo and manual transmission cars for this year. 1993 not 1992 like my wife told me. came with the 3.90 lsd. the automatic cars came with either the 4.11 or the 3.90 as a regular rearend. so it is not from the factory a lsd. so does anyone have a good wire from the pump to the tank plate? i will do something with it.
  6. i agree completely and i am usually on another site and i have to ask others what engine trans they have from time to time. i forgot to post that. until someone had asked me. right now i can not verify the rearend in this thing. when i can verify what it is and what i have i will be posting it for sure. i am going to try the fwd fuse thing as a test of course. but i still think it is either in the rear or in the trans. that is the best i can say. the car has for sure what i know is 92 legacy (L) i have to guess. it is a mpfi engine (2.2) i think. with a automatic transmission. the only sticker on it says 4wd or maybe it is awd. i think it is a awd. becuase it is not changeable from 2wd to 4wd. so it must be a awd or full time 4wd. the car came from a (uesd) i think car dealer in littleton colorado. and the owner i got it from was my neighbor who got it from his neighbor who came from iola kansas. reciepts in the glove box said something about replacing a right axle or cv joint before i got it. and something else. i forget right now. one wierd thing i read and this said that the viscous 3.90 could be had in a 91 legacy. this web site also went one to say as already stated here that the word lsd would be on the sticker too. i do not know abotu any swaps or mods that may have been doen before i got the car. so since i dont know for a fact about this cars history. i will need to do some verifing of the rear end before we go any further. but first i will have to get it started so i can move it to a place where i can jack it up. personal attacks: i am not interested in personal attacks and i wish they would stop. they are putting this thread off subject. i am a adult not some punk kid who doesnt know squat. i put in that it might be an lsd. i didnt say that it was set in stone and that i knew. i think you understand that. and thank you for seeing that. i will post again when i know more about the test and verify what is what for sure. when i first got this car 3 years ago i had heard something about these transmissions had problems. and this car has had this problem the whole time.
  7. let me put it this way. until it is actually verified or not how can anyoen tell ifit is or not. if i have to test it to be sure? so my description and wording could be correct for all anyone really know what is inside of the case. am i right? i thought so. a proper diagnois would be to check that to make sure what it really is. one person posted that this si the wrong gear ratio for my car. well does that say anything? it coudl ahve been swapped out. or rebuilt or who knows what. so until i verify it. those of you who sy its not this or its not that may be wrong unless the cases are different. and from what i have read elsewhere i dont think they are. its the internals that make it this or that. so if you are talking about proper diagnosis and word games then you probably need to think again. if someone wanted to help they would say this " those numbers dont add up to a lsd. nor does that gear ratio for that certain car.. before i can give you a proper diagnosis please verify if you have a lsd. you do this by turning one tire and see if the other tires spins the same way or a different way. then a proper diagnois would be able to be given" so since i have not verified. because no one has asked yet. and i was going to verify before i went much further. no one knows what it is and it is just a word game. since i have had this car for three years and it hasnt blown up withhtis problem i would say its probably not that big of a deal. but i would like to be able to fix it. so lets get down to sugjestions before i turn on pbs for those who need it. 4x4 welder how is your bumpside? give up on it for the sub or what? havent seen you post over there in a while.
  8. i messed with mine tonight. i have power to the tankplug . at first turn of the swithc and it has power in pulses when the switch is turned to start position. i had the pump out yesterday and it ran with direct power to it. the wire plug that goes from the pump to the tank plate. has one slightly black melted spot on the end where it plugs into the tank plate. i think this might be getting intermittet contact and not letting the pump work correctly. i think but i am unsure. the only other thing i can think is that the mpfi system is suppose to have 61-71 psi. i can not buy a aftermarket replacement pump from the parts store that has the wire that comes with it. i am hoping the dealer 30 miles away has that wire or something. if not i did see some complete units on ebay last night. does this sound correct in thinking that the pump wire is not completeing the connection all of the time. or is the pump just not pumping enough pressure to get it to the front? either way i think i will end up with a new pump.
  9. maybe this is what got me to just calling it a lsd instead of the rear diff. this guy says its not called one. i dont really care what its called. i know it could lead to different fixed or diagnosis. but i dont care about word game. i posted a pic of it so you guys would know exactly what i am dealing with. i am going to try here in a few minutes to get it started again. i need to jump the battery first. stupid battery anyway.
  10. i have already stated that i know what a lsd is. it is a limited slip differential. even i can tell that this is not a ford 9 inch rear end with clutch packs in it. if you would post the proper wording for this thing. i would use that word. it is a word. and you understand what i am talking about. my car has a problem. if you would like to help me fix it great and thank you. if you want to play word games please tune to the pbs channel in your city. seasame street should be on sometime. i am not here for arguing over the usage of a word. i got this word elsewhere and is the only word i know to call this thing.
  11. no tubo no symbols that even say L. but when looking up parts i have to put L in as the submodel.
  12. thanks to all that replied. i got it now. i even used the lower button to take it out of gear to push it a few minutes ago.
  13. i found it. i will put a fuse in it when my car gets running again. hopefully tonight. ha ha. it did start a few minutes ago. but that could have just been gas in the line.
  14. thank you that worked this time. i thought i had tried that before. i had almost given up on setting it.
  15. it is a auto. i dont remember seeing a fwd fuse but i wasn't looking for a fwd fuse when i looked. i was looking for a fuel pump relay.
  16. it is a panasonic. here is a pic of it. i had assumed it was a factory radio. maybe i was wrong.
  17. ok i misread the first answer last night about the release of the shifter. as far as shifting with hte manual button. my wife puts it in manual when driving around town.she says it slows down the noise it makes i think is what she says. see my other post about lsd problems. maybe it is something to do with a solinoid or the transmission.
  18. as far as i know this is the stock part that caem in the car from the factory. the cluncking sound seems to be coming from the rear of the car. it ressembles the sound of a cv joint slipping and catching. but they seem fine when i checked them. i have done nothing to this car except put a used coil pack on it change the oil and brake pads all the way around. i had heard at first that these trannys had problems. but a guy told me it sounded more like the rear box. i do know it not a differential. i do not know if it is a limited slip differential with clutch packs in it. i dont have a book for this car or a owners manual. it does say 6 al on it some place i do remember seeing that the first time i looked info up abouthtis thing. i can do some more looking to confirm. but i need to get more uniform answers as to what it really is. and where the problems lie at. when i get it started and going again. i can even get a video of the sound. it is a 92 legacy
  19. it looks like i have to take the seat back out. and retest to see if its getting power when it is put in the start position then. i will post back when i cant figure it out again. thank you.
  20. there are three button total. the top button is the shifter button. the second button says amnaulk right below it. the third button is down on the shifter bezel. here si a pic or two i just went out and took. the black button in the top of the bezel.
  21. the car clunks sometimes when going around a corner. we think it has to do with hte rear end or lsd. are the clutches in it going bad? does it just need new lube in it? what kind of lube is correct for it. i would like to fix it before it goes totally out on me.
  22. how do you do it. this thing has been blinking 12:00 since we got it. i cant figure it out. its a am/fm cassette. it is a factory radio.
  23. i have a 92 legacy. non tubo mpfi automatic trans with a lsd i think its called i think it is a 6aml or something like that i looked but dont remember the number exactly. there are two buttons near the shifter. i dont have any cant find a good deal on a owners manual. what are these buttons for one of them says manual the other i have no idea what it does.
