i took a stethescope to each head then to the oil pan, its really loud at the oil pan,

car fired up fine, after reading the article we came to the conclusion that the battery just needed to be replaced, we replaced the battery. ran great yesterday, started the car today after putting on some engine degreaser to clean the motor, now im back to square 1, as my luck would have it. the new engine is knocking something fearce , i think i may have pissed off the Subaru gods or something.

So would this interruption to the battery back up power supply to the ecm cause a misfire or no pulse to the #1 injector, what is the best way to maybe circumvent this issue?

i had an earlier post on swapping a ej22 out of a 96 legacy into my 99 sus, we went back and forth getting the timing right, i finally got the timing right and i got the car running, it ran but it had a code for the crank shaft not being in sync with the cam, we replaced the crank sensor and the car ran beautifully for 15-20 minutes, then all of the sudden the car ran like crap, my mechanic buddy hooked it to his scanner and came back that there is no pulse to the #1 cylinder injector, so as you can imagine the car runs on 3 cylinders, he was lead to believe that the ecu has gone bad, will a ej22 ecu work in a 99 outback sedan running a 96 legacy ej22? assuming that both cars are automatics? are the pinouts the same?

i have the car baclk and it does run, poorly but it runs, i get codes p0431, 0403, and 0341, which seem to be either a cam crank sensor sync is off some and the egr, the egr doesnt really bother me too much, i replaced the hydrauklic tensioner portion, the tensioner pulley is the last none new thing on the timing portion, would the pulley its self cause the timing to keep jumping after the timing has been reset?

Where are they located, car lot? If it's Nate Wade Subaru there in downtown slc stay clear, I haven't had a very positive buying experience from them, mark miller Subaru seems better to me. Or is it on KSL classifieds?

do i need to cut off the one tab that faces the driver side timing cover?

but how do i get that new style to work with the old style i put the pic up of?

the bracket i have looks alot like this

i didnt use the tensioner or the assembly on the 22 that would have come from the 25. the 25d assembly doesnt look as if it will bolt up due to there not being the 3rd bolt on the driver side of the tab where it bolts to the driver side head under the inner timing belt cover

the ej22 is out of a 96, i did actually find the vin on the block, i took all the timing components and water pump from my 25d minus the belt and tensioner meaning they will not work with the 96 22e, I did put on a new timing belt on the 22e, the tensioner and the hydraulic assembly are the only things i did not change, i left them from the 22e, the story on the motor is that it is a craiglist special, it had 170-180 compression all the way around, the motor doesnt seem to turn over any faster than it should. it does have spark it does have fuel, i though maybe the fuel lines on the 22 were blocked or something till i took out out the injectors and there was fuel in the tubes when i removed the injectors, i actually just put the injectors out of the 25d on the 22 fuel rail thinking before i knew about the fuel in the rail. my theory is that the timing tensioner is the culprit, allowing the timing to be off a few teeth. when people change the timing belt do you change both the tensioner and the hydraulic assembly as well? or just the tensioner? the reason i ask is that most of the timing belt kits i look at only include the tensioner and not the hydraulic assembly.

engine rotates clock wise if i am looking at the front of the motor correct?

i had the old style and i did re-compress it prior to installing the timing belt and took the pin out after i had the timing belt aligned with the timing marks

i have fuel pressure, spark, timing is off 3-4 teeth now though, when one replaces the timing belt, and the tensioner do they also replace the hydraulic assembly on that as well? what would cause a motor that hasnt been started yet to skip timing that much by trying to start the motor or turning the motor by hand via crank bolt?

Would a cam and crank sensor cause any lack of spark or fuel? The crank sensor is off of my old motor should I maybe try to change the cam sensor as well?

OK I have the motor in, i crank and crank the motor and it will not start. do i need to change the engine wiring harness off of the old engine to the new 22e? does the 96 legacy coil have the ignitor built in like the 99 ej25d? also there are 2 ends for hoses in the front passenger side of the motor, if i put on the hose for these, where should they route to?

if you could find me a tube for the ej22 that would be awesome, let me know what postage is. paypal or how would you like to be recompensated for it? PM me if needed

i had the temp go up on me 2 times but it did not get into the red if i recall correctly, the mechanic that did the head work for me said that there was no thermostat in the car, i know the heads were done by the previous owner as there was a mls gasket on one half of the motor and one graphite type of gasket on the other half. to me it seems like they took the thermostat out to hide the headgasket issue and traded it in where i bought it. i have only had the car since feb. lol i just want my baby on the road, as the wifes suv sucks gas like its going out of style. 35 miles one way to work is starting to get expensive

that other motor was a 95 ej22 just non egr intake, it has low compression on the one side so ill just swap to the 96 where it is already to roll minus a oil fill tube, would anyone happen to know if a 25d oil fill tube will fit a 96 22e engine? can i pull the oil pump and water pump while reusing the seals on the pumps? they both have seriously 700 miles on them and have been on the 25d motor maybe a month before the bottom end took a crap

does anyone know if a oil fill tube from a 25d will fit a 22e?

I am glad you seem to be the guru of gurus when it comes to subarus, they are red so i am guessing i have a 96 single port with hydro lifters and non interference then? i picked up a timing belt and i can use all of the timing tenSioner waterpump, oil pump and timing idler Pulleys from the 25d onto the 22 long block correct?

well it had a single port head so i had to get the appropriate exhaust header, how can i tell if it is a 96 or 97-99 engine from the outside without popping the valve cover to see weather it has solid or hydro valves?

does the 3rd or 4th pic on that link appear to have the egr present on the intake manifold then? is the 96 non interference as well?

then is this atleast a 95 ej22 with egr? https://eastidaho.craigslist.org/pts/4972112742.html the third pic in is the engine in question. ill check the heads tomorrow for dual or single port exhaust
