  1. I really hate these DIY Manuels they are useless for the most part. I have another starter and cylinoid that is good I'll try swapping them out and see what happens. Since it is twelve degrees outside right now I am not going to mess with it unless it just plain goes out. That is another thing it only seems to mess up when it is cold out but it will do it if the engine is warm or not more when the engine is cold though. It is probably the cylinoid going out or it just needs the contacts cleaned as mentioned before.
  2. I tried switching from park to neutral and wiggling the shifter didn't seem to do anything if it is the starter or cylinoid I have a spare. I'll check the contacts later when it warms up
  3. I did try a search for this and couldn't find anything like this. 1997 legacy Brighton 2.2 auto awd I went out this morning to start this car and move it and when I turned the key to start it nothing happened no click nothing. After a few tries it finally worked battery wasn't low once it started turning over it was strong. Occasionally it will also delay for a couple seconds between when you turn the key and the starter engages. I think it is a relay, my DIY Manuel says a little bit about a relay that the starter goes through but is very vague about the relay and where it is Does anyone know where this relay is or is there something else it could be.
  4. Nice thanks that looks more like it bearing diimensions look much better than rock auto
  5. If they added a cooler it is possible they added a filter also
  6. This post is regarding a 91 4eat same trans as the car I mentioned and I ment to say aftermarket inline filter. I have seen several cars with this on it and it would be a reason for the low pressure if it is clogged. Most people don't even know they have an extra filter so they do not change them so they have a tendency to get clogged. They are inline filters similar to a fuel filter and the style on most cars that i have seen them on have no bypass. I just thought I would mention it because it is a simple thing to check for.
  7. I am having a similar problem with a first gen Lego. I was told if it has an auxiliary filter (inline of tranny cooler) that it could be plugged and they said to try changing the filter first.
  8. I woke up to this Since I don't have a garage it is going to be awhile before I do anything with this car
  9. Even if I fix the originals I still know where I can get a legacy and gl strut assembly and I will still find out if this mod is possible.
  10. Yes the other side is still intact I will take that into the local hardware store and see if they can get them. Thank you for the info.
  11. I just got through reading this thread and I am not sure but what years of injectors are compatible (there is a lot of info in this thread hard to absorb it all) It sounds like 90-94 2.2 is compatible auto or Manuel. What other years are compatible for the 2.2 I have a full set of red top auto injectors out of a 95 impreza and would like to know what they will fit in without ecu swap Btw good thread you guys should make this a sticky
  12. What would I ask for to find these in a hardware store? Should I just ask for thrust bearings?
  13. Pic I know this bearing is missing a piece. when I took apart the other side the bearing on the other side had these parts plus one other peice of metal that sat under this peice. This peice consists of a peice of round metal (kinda looks like a washer and a rubber ring. Is this what you call a thrust bearing Mc Brat?
  14. I would like to keep it stock since I have decided to just slowly restore it. I know what you mean by needle bearings but I don't know what a thrust bearing is. I know the ones I got from rock auto were quite different than my originals. I will look around in my photo album for this car and see if I can get a pic posted of what my bearings look like
  15. Lol the guy that sold me my legacy didn't know what was wrong with the parking lights. It was the switch after I bought it I got in and turned the switch off
  16. If it is a head gasket it will get worse the more you drive it, and since you said you bled the system properly and when you removed your thermostat it quit there is a good chance you have a damaged head gasket
  17. I use heet in my car at least once a month in the winter never had any problems with gas lines freezing and I run my gas down to e and then some when I add heet then full up with gas
  18. Ok decided to fix my legacy and just slowly rebuild this car as I can
  19. 80 gl 1600 I bought it for three hundred expected to need a c.v ended up needing carb repair, oil pump rebuild, new rad, struts, shocks, and a lot more it is turning into an entire rebuild. But it only has 130k and glad I got it otherwise it probably would have gone to the grave yard Pics in here http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=134146
  20. You shouldn't run it much without a thermostat it could cause more damage
  21. Sounds like a bad radiator to me. Since the hose was collapsed that means it was trying to move the water but couldn't for some reason most likely a bad radiator.
  22. A radiators a radiator as long as all the connections you need are there it'll work
  23. Empis work just as good and they cost about $80 brand new. nice thing about new axles is no core! I got to keep my napa reman that has two good boots so if I need parts I have a spare
  24. Ok this is all the things I can think off that needs to be fixed brakes all the way around they are all worn out Rear bearings Something in the front end hopefully only a bushing Steering rack Alternator I need to change the gear oil in the trans, final drive, and I might as well do the rear end to This is redicules I can't afford this I need a effing car not a pos that needs hundreds of dollars just to get back on the road this is turning from fix this car into a nice car to total restoration!!!!!!!! I have close to 1,000 bucks in this car already and I still can't drive it. Not even to mention all the rust I can't even get the drivers side rear axle nut off because its rusted up so bad!!!
  25. Well I'm SOL I checked the passenger side brakes expecting to see a mess I was surprised to see they were worn out but still had pads and were actually in good shape but then I start messing with the cv, and the rear bearings are toast 1/4 inch of slop in all directions not only that It took me an hour to get the car jacked up because both my floor jacks quit working and my bottle jack quit too!!! I finally used a handy man jack
