94 Legacy 2.2, when parked Rpms go up and down. Also misses/chugs sometimes when pressing gas pedal down more (while driving). Any ideas where I should start? Thank you

Ok, I will see if I can get my hands on another speedo cable. I will let you know how that goes. Thank you VERY much for the help.

Sorry, I did not realize that the speedometer would have anything to do with this. My speedometer does not work, also the tach does not work 95% of the time.

With 14 pin plugged unplugged and plugged in, I tried the car in-1st, 2nd, 3rd, D, and R. All worked the same.

Sorry it took me so long to get this done. We finally got a week in the 35-45 degree range, so it melted some snow and ice off the parking lots. (With 14 pin plug) PLUGGED IN and fuse out- I get FWD ONLY. Plugged in and fuse in- FWD ONLY. (With 14 pin plug) UNPLUGGED and fuse out- I get AWD (on ice I can see the back tire spinning). Fuse in- FWD light is on, but still feels like it's jumping/binding.

so doing this will not hurt the car at all? I make a living with this car and can not afford to loose it. Sorry if I sound really dumb, Subaru's are a little different than a lot of other vehicles.

what exactly do you mean if the trans computer dies? The reason I ask is this car is driven daily.

Don't know what kind of difference it might make, but this is an automatic with right hand steer (route car).

I will try that and let you know. I live in NW Wisconsin. Lots of snow and ice. The only two tires that spin are the front two. Been stuck in the snow (yes I have been stuck with a Subaru, hard to believe ). I have had several Subaru's, don't get stuck much when they work. Thank you again for the help. Will get back to you.

Normally I would agree 100%, but I have no fuse in and I have only front wheel drive. When I put the fuse in, the car may or may not move some, then it seems like the tranny is just slipping and the car don't move at all. Take fuse out and front wheel drive works great. ???????????

I have a 91 Subaru Legacy "L" 4WD Wagon. When I put the fuse in for the AWD/4WD the tranny just slips. Without the fuse in the tranny has no problems. I really need the AWD/4WD. Any ideas on why this is happening? Thank you.

Can someone please explain (in a way that someone who has never done this-I may go get the car and see if I can get it running) exactly how/what to do a head swap. I don't think it makes a difference, but this is a right hand steer (mail route vehicle) car. Thank you very much for the help.

he says spark is great. Says it will fire, and act like it might start, then stops turning over.

Well I printed all of the above (thank you for the info). He checked and tried all. Still no go. Any more ideas or info? Thank you.

Thank you, I will run this info by him and see what he thinks.

I am running into a problem with getting more info on what he did (he is having personal problems, hard to get ahold of him). I do know that he has rechecked everything that he did, he said he rechecked the timing, and has searched the manual and online trying to see what could be going on. I will see if I can get more info. We really need the car back, and I don't know if he is going to be able to get it done. Thank you for any help you can give.

a mechanic worked on my 2.2, he changed one head and now the car won't start. It ran before this, just overheated whenver it felt like it. Any ideas on what would be causing the car to not start??? Thank you
