  1. The engine has been rebuilt. And runs perfectly. Every 20 to 60 miles, it will just die. Always while braking to a stop. It doesn't shudder or feel weird in any way other than it is no longer running. It will turn over but not fire for 5 to 20 min then start and run fine. Thereis no cel. I want to replace the fuel pump relay but can't find it in my repair manual. Is a fuel pump a likely cause?
  2. The car has a significant torque bind. By that I mean it feels like a truck in 4wd when in turns and brakes. The tranny has been replaced with a used one. The problem was With me before the the swap. The car will occasionally stall when I come to a stop at a red light. When it does this it will not restart for 5 to 10 min. I have been told to try the coolant temp sensor. I replaced it no change. Please help. Thanks
  3. Thanks for the advice. Ill try temp sensor and get back to you with results. Thank you to everyone who shares their time and talent with all of us novices. This site has saved me a fortune in repair bills.
  4. no cel. Also I forgot to mention that I just swapped the tranny. The problem also existed with the old transmission.
  5. I've got a 95 legacy wagon with an auto trnny. It occasionaly dies when I stop at a red light. When it does this to me, it will not start for about 5 min. It just turns over seemingly not getting spark. Then all of the sudden it starts and runs fine. Never any problems while in forward motion. Please help???????
  6. I have a loyale with a burnt motor. I have an ea82 carbed motor sitting in the garage. Can I just swap intakes and such and make this thing run again. Thanks
  7. Ok, i have already replaced all the seals in the oil pump and i still have a really bad tick of death. I just bought it, a 92 loyale that has had documented repairs such as head gaskets and water pump and timing belts. the owner told me that subaru said it needed an oil pump to fix the ticking which has only recently started. What next guys, it only has 155k. I dont want to swap it cause it seems to run really well and is still getting29 mpg. Any ideas are welcome. Thanks in advance
  8. I need a daily driver while i upgrade the gl. dude wants 500 bucks for a legacy sedan with 2.2 turbo at 177k and a blown auto tranny. Will this thing die in the 4 months i need to do my swap. how ahrd would it be to swap a man. trans in it. Did the same swap on an auto loyale so i know how to if its the same deal. Would this be a better motor to put in the gl project? I have a 155k 2.2NA at the moment, but i havent started overhauling yet. Thank you guys for all the great advice and encouragement. Mike
  9. I just read somewhere that the 2.5 is an interference , but the 2.2 is not. I thought he meant any of the 2.2s from any year but i could be mistaken.
  10. thanks for the info guys. BTW it was a monroe sensi trac that gave out after bout 300 miles.
  11. I bent the stock, brand new shock/strut, on a camping trip. I've got the 2" lift blocks at 15 degrees. I was loaded down pretty good and running pretty fast down a jeep trail. That said, I have heard the rear shocks are the aquiles heel of a gl/loyale wagon. Someone had posted the part nuber for a 4runner shock that is the same height as the loyale's rear shock.
  12. Need to know what year 4 runners have similar rear struts to my loyale. I know i have to drill them out a bit, but other advice is welcome. I am going to yoto parts cause I just bent the hell out a brand new stock strut. huh weak link? What do you guys think?
