In situations like this I usually hook up my Modus to get a second opinion kinda. It never hurts with OBD data to use a second scanner if something seems out of the ordinary. If the ECM isnt even displaying O2S1 i'd think something isnt right in the ECM. If it cant even display or monitor B1S1 then it will say uh oh and throw a code but i'd rather say it's in the 02 sensor because even if the sensor was disconnected it'd show default of 0.30v or 0.00v in live data depending on the vehicle. Im looking at it on Shopkey atm but unfortunately you have an A/F sensor (air fuel ratio) which runs a 2.500v reference instead of 0.0-0.9v. Theyre much more complex and generally throw other codes like P0A instead of P01 My wiring diagram just shows 5 wires and doesnt give me the internals or dimentions so i cant tell u which terminals to check. Unfortunately a/f sensors are an expensive guess too. I can give you ECM terminals to check tho. If wiring is ok it's either a ecm or sensor. These terminals should have continuity when checked with a volt/ohm meter. 02 terminal: 1 (red)connects to ECM B135 terminal: 19 02 terminal: 2 (yellow/red)connects to 02S2 terminal:2 and Main relay terminal: 4 Main relay is behind LH side of dash with 6 terminal connector. 02 terminal: 3 (green) connects to ECM B135 terminal: 6 02 terminal: 4 (white) connects to ECM B135 terminal: 7 02 terminal: 5 (brown/black) connects to ECM B134 terminal: 22, 23 02 terminal: 6 (black) connects to ECM B135 terminal: 20 You shouldnt mistake 22/23 on B134 with 22/23 on B135 since it says 18/22/23 arent used on B135

maf cant be checked due to it's complex integrated circuits. however if you unplug it and start the car it goes into failsafe but that only works at idle to see if it's a problem. You cant rev it with it unplugged or it dies. However letting off gas causing a stall sounds lke fuel. My landlord's truck wouldnt start on her today and she had the same symptoms. Stalls when you dont give it gas. The injectors open at a higher pulse width at higher rpm allowing the lower fuel pressure to not be a problem because they open so fast the fuel can get into the cylinders. As i said about dry lines it's true it wont completely drain the lines but it will only leak down until the injectors drain the fuel system at the lowest possible PSI to keep it running then it dies. What i referred to by that would be the fact that the pump usually cant re-pressurize the system instanly. If it drops to say 25 while running and 35 at idle and if it goes under those conditions the car cant possibly run then what's the odds the pump can in it's 1-2 second prime time when he re-cranks can accomidate 10-20 psi through the entire (however many cubic centimeters long) section of fuel line it has to fill from back to front with fuel hence it would have a long crank time as it builds faster than the injectors releive pressure until it hits that 35 psi mark again.

it's good i didnt need the diff. Mine looks brand new now that i've cleaned it and changed it to royal purple oil. My car doesnt have a single spot of rust besides the hood thats wrinkled from a wreck b4 i bought it. You can see from the pic the terrible rust the doner had. The trans surprisingly was just oily. That's probably what saved it lol all the un-maintained engine leaks.

99% sure u fried ur maf sensor. Pull the air filter. If the box is damp u managed to get some water in the intake box in the fender. Yes its possible. Not easy but possible. Thats the only thing i like about maf cars is an anti engine blow up sensor when you suck in water maf sensors calculate load which if its even 1% out of spec ur car will lose power and economy.

I went to the yard today and got my 5-speed swap, all clutch components and brake lines, speedo/clutch cables, 5-speed awd trans and linkages. It was a fight from 8am to 2:30. They closed at 3 but I managed to get it. My bro couldnt go and the wife wasnt strong enough to help so I had to haul it across the scales by myself and it was heavier than I expected but I strapped some seatbelts to it and wrapped them around my shoulders and neck and managed it. Didnt have to pull the rear diff since it was a 4.111. This was the only car in the yard with it and it was rusty as hell which is what presented the issues. Doner was a 93 legacy. I was going to pull the diff since it was a legacy but I saw shiny and wiped off a subaru tag that said the p/n and "GEAR RATIO: 4.111" Im curious if the auto/manual crank bolts are different? the flex plate is thinner than the flywheel so i assume the m/t ones are longer. Any ideas? Tomorrow i'll begin tearing my car apart to do the swap seeing as with a f****d trans it isnt doing me any good to drive right now. I'll keep this thread updated with pics and such if anyone else is interested

That's without flywheel. Im talking the whole 9 yards $200. If i pull the old flywheel from the car it'll be either rusted or warped. It'll cost me $50 to machine it and it'll add extra weight to my carrying capacity. Remember it's what i can carry out not what i can pull. For $75 i'd rather just get a brand new flywheel plus try to get the flywheel bolts off in the junkyard with no air or electric tools lol I'm actually going for this: I've got one in my hyundai and it's a nice upgrade from OEM but still feels like OEM http://www.ebay.com/itm/F1-RACING-STAGE-1-CLUTCH-KIT-95-01-SUBARU-IMPREZA-EJ18-1-8L-2-2L-1990-99-LEGACY-/120832975288?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1995%7CModel%3AImpreza&hash=item1c2234e1b8&vxp=mtr http://www.ebay.com/itm/LUK-LFW123-Flywheel-Flexplate-/170830305254?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1995%7CModel%3AImpreza&hash=item27c64797e6&vxp=mtr Im not sure if i wana go with exedy flywheel or an offbrand. Just like rotors it's just a hunk of steel so there's no real reason one should be better than another. On another note would now be the time to do a lightweight flywheel if i intend to do a lightweight crank pulley? I've heard even lightening both i'll need to have the engine's rotating assembly balanced to compensate and that's kinda the boxer's shining point is engine balance.

Thats odd seeing as these dont have a cut valve for the heater core. If it rose to hot quickly then back down that sounds like an air pocket or faulty sensor. The gauge sensor isnt the same as the ecm one so its likely to do that and not throw a code. The fact that it was low worries me. Has it dropped any since you topped it off?
