Welcome!
You have hit the jackpot for info on anything (plus more) subaru.

I figured it out! It was a tooth off on the dizzy , and I also got a question about the test connectors, if I plug it in, I can't give gas at all or it just dies, if unplugged I can gas but the check engine light will be on?? I haven't timed it with light yet for I'm out if town.
Miles, those videos are more then helpful and easy to follow! The only reason I decided to do the job myself was because of your step by step videos! Thanks man!!! SERIOUSLY!

I got my car running!!! But I have the green plastic and white connectors up by furl filter, if they are unplugged I can gas and the check engine light is on, but if I plug them in I can't push on gas without it dying.
Do I need to save the timing some how?

The timing covers are off, I left them off cuz I heard its much easier with this plastics gone. They are 180° of each other....must be off on the dizzy? Maybe s tooth or two?

So I have spfi 1990 loyale and did timing belts,tensioners, and pulleys as well as head gaskets and main seals, I got everything dropped in and I can't get it to start...I'm pretty sure its the timing at the dizzy (I hope) but was wondering if I did the cams correct? I followed Milesfox video on youtibe "the art of subaru maintance" and did drivers side cam up then rotated it till pointing down and installed passenger side with cam hole was up and driver down.
Anyways I can't get car to start correctly, it will start and sound like garbage with full pedal but it barely breathes and dies with pedal release....I also am hearing a "clicking" from fuel pump and somewhere in ecu or behind it? (Fuel pump relay I think)
Going to fiddle with dizzy again, any help is MUCH appreciated!

I got a loyale and found 2 plastic headlight covers, they are 2 different brands though and I was looking for another one to match, the one I'm looking for is "MPC" and said made in Australia, I searched but found no infor so far...

Today I am continuing my, one wheel at a time project... Just mounted the wheel back on Ned, I didnt think the difference was soo..... hmm intense.. lol. Itll be even more intense when I get access to a wire wheel and can grind down the lugs and paint them
Im thinking white (to stand out on the black) or possibly red (again, to stand out on the black)Before/After:
Ned with wheel mounted:
Word those are pretty sick! what kinda clear coat did you use?

-rotor
-plugs
-filter
now I gotta drive 30 minutes, 1 way,to use my buddy's garage because I live in apartments that have a strict "no working on car" policy.....but it should be fun...

the tread part of the dead pedal pops up and flips over to one side. Its held together though with that black sticky stuff and is a PITA to move. after that is flipped over you will have access to the bolts holding it to the car.
Word!

I installed a GL footrest / dead pedal into a Loyale. The main reason I did it is to keep the drivers carpet from sliding around as it was loose.
How is this done? I saw a dead pedal at the junk yard but couldn't see how to take it off?....Anybody
-Nomad
-
Correct, turbos have the 25 and NON TURBOS have 23....parts house will confuse these, so be careful!!!

I'm kinda in the same situation, I have a 1990 loyale turbo that got bump in the driver side, and messed up the ac condenser and radiator, I started ripping all the tap welds off and hopefully will be able to get another and weld it on?
, I tried finding more people who have done this but cannot! more info would be SWEET!
