1996 Legacy L 5spd Overheating
ivans imports replied to nwtech's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXLook for bubbles in over flow bottle when running hot = head gasket i put shop air into cly and look for bubbles in over flow one cly at time. Piston must be at top and have to hold the crank with bar i put 120 psi in cly and should hold with no leaks if air is geting into cooling syestem needs head gaskets. Almost evry weird cooling problem i get is headgasket i chek them first.

No AWD steelership diagnosed as duty c and clutch pack, replaced but still NO AWD
Wow what alot of mess oly thing i can add is that subaru turns off the voltage to the soiliniod to engage awd not power it to turn on awd . when the soiliniod is off flows into awd cuircut when powerd it dumps preshure.When 2wd fuse is in it powers the soiliniod and dumps line preshure so no flow to awd. I run thiss tranny in dragster i tookout whole awd valve assembly and ran a soilid line to awd strait line preshure all the time my awd do's not slip at all. One more thing the less clearance the clutchpack has the sooner it comes on i set them 1-2 thow or less tighter is good but must still have clearance i custom set clutch packs to customers driving needs and location. some people need more awd than others.
