this bull happened to me too. i had everything lined up and everything but i had no spark. it turned out my wiring under the dash had become loose and wasnt getting a good connection. i could see up in there very well. so ai got mad and grabbed the harness and started shaking it back and forth and the connection came back together. and i got spark back. mine was on a 93 legacy. the power for spark came from the alt to the fuse then on to the main power for the ignitier. it hasnt failed since i shook it.

i know a guy who wants me to change the timing belt water pump and all the rollers on his 2005 outback. how much labor should i charge him? is 250.00 about right? he buys the parts.
-
yes. people always forget that info dont they. one is a 93 legacy auto awd the other is a 95 legact awd auto.

What do you people know about mny experiences doing rear end jobs?
Who cares it is my money and my problem if i screw something up. Isnt it?

all i want to know is the wiring deal.

that sounds like a housing change to me. i think i have to decide if i just want this transmission now. the fluid looked ok. but smelled of clutches. i have been looking at the wiring plugs o fboth cars. they both seem to have the same number of wires going into the plug from the main harness. so maybe its ok and they just used different colored wires from 93 to a 95. 150.00 and its local. but i have to pull it out in this heat in a field.

you just put a pry bar in there and pop the axles out of the front of the transmission dont you. and the snap ring either releases easy or it takes and harder pop with the pry bar doesnt it. ?
-
i am worried about the wiring is all. on the 95 hood it says obd2 equipped. i dont have a sticker on my hood that says anything except subaru.
-
wait i was coutin the letters wrong. the first letter a is correct. but the second letter is a A which doesnt corespond with the year 1995. my transmission is a 2 in that position but the car is a 93. so i have a 91 transmission in a 93. but both transmissions are multi plate transmissions. now i have to findout about the wiring and the year code of that right hand drive transmission.
-
all your searches. end up with that link to the parts diagrams. i am not intersted in that. i am interested to see if this right hand drive awd 95 trans will fit in my left hand drive awd 93. both legacys. i looked at the plugs they are both square. i didnt trace any wires on either car to see if i needed to do any rigging. which i would not be able to do anyway. because i dont know what rigging would need to be done. the decode pages i have seen dont match up with what i am seeing and knowing about the car this is in. the first A in that code about says 2wd. http://www.main.experiencetherave.com/subaru_manual_scans/FSM_Scans/engine_&_trans_decode.jpg
wrong. this is defently a awd. it has a rear edn under it. with axles. but that is not what worries me. i am worried about the wiring. i found apdf file. but the code wasnt in that pdf i found either.

not found on that first chart. the page i seen had larger fonts. it was a long page. tz102zaaaac7
-
i have an auto. the page i saw had all the numbers and letters. like tz04 aaaa c7. the large set of numbers on the stickers.

check her foot it might be a bit heavy for the pedal. our 93 legacy gets 26 hwy. we have had it for 5 years and never done any kind of tune up what so ever to it.
-
i saw a thread on here that had a link to a page with the transmission serail numbers on it. where is that link. i cant find the thread i was reading.

in my personal opinion. propane is too slow to heat the metal to even use as a cutting torch. i dont like using it.
-
i'd walk away. i don't need a built up car for any reason. the upgrades are worth maybe half what he paid for them. because they are now used parts. but if yo uhave no use for those upgrades. then its worthless to buy. now other guys. who knows. maybe you could talk some rich kid into buying it.
-
dont worry. enough abou tthe front ratio. i can do it. its not legos. but it isnt wiring up and blowing something up or it not working. total cost since monday fo rgas 130.00 wasted. what ever works and works fast.
-
well there are always the unexpected things. but i think i can do it. shims and crush bearings arent to bad of a deal.

i'm going to stay with my 3.9 and just swap out the whole transmission unit to matchmy rear. it should be a piece of cake. ring and pinions arent real hard to do if you happen to take them apart. but i am hoping i can do a whole front case swap kind of thing. i dont know i havent seen it in person. only diagrams of the transsmissions and the front ring and pinion.
-
so i may not have to do any wiring changing if i used the forrester trans? that is all the scares me.
-
my 93 legacy had a loose wire somehwere between the firewall and passenger compartment. i grabbed the loom of wiring under the dash and pulled it back and forth. the body plug popped out and the power came back to my system. i just have to be able to reach up in there now and solder the loose wire. it was a yellow wire coming to or from fuse 16. the main power fuse to the spark system of the engine.
-
that can always be changed out no problems. the guy says this was built in 9/97 he said it didnt have the external oil filter. so it is probably a phase one transmission. is any of that right?
-
Really, this is not the first Subaru Ute. Check the USMB, its been done many times over. It works.
i am sure it can be done. and i do like it. but the structural support has to be though about when doing a mod like this.
how much to charge

one thing i just thought of. alot of building contractor just take the lumber prices and double it . and keep the rest for labor. maybe i should do that. i saw a timing belt kit minus the water pump for 169.00 on ebay free ship. it doesnt take very long to do the pump and all of that to my 2.2 so a 2.5 couldnt take very much longer. and i pulled the radiator the first time. all the other times i had the fan out of the way instead. but the radiator being out would be easier to drain the coolant. for the pump.
