Cool, thanks for the info everyone!

Ok, so I aquired an ej25d short block and am confused on which headgaskets I need to use with my 2.2 heads. They are single port heads (phase 2?). Which thickness gasket do I use? Or do I get factory ones and drill?

So heres the deal. I aquired a 1997 Legacy with a 2.2 that has bad rings. So I figure I will do the 2.5/2.2 setup. I've searched around and I guess I'm not finding the answers I want, what I would like to know is what 2.5 bottom end should I use? Do I need a DOHC block, or can i use a SOHC block? Does it matter one way or the other? I also remember seeing something about different sized oil pumps, as far as volume. Also which headgasket does this require? Just an OEM 2.5 one? This legacy is a 5-speed, which clutch/flywheel setup can I use? Thanks for any info.

The car was not running when I used the vacuum pump. I assumed that was the proper method. After turning pump off I left gauges on and it held a vacuum - then I recharged. I will look again but I don't see a receiver/dryer on my model 2002 Impreza OBS.
Thanks
No, you had that correct. I ment when the engine is running/air cond. active.

Dealer was probably selling a compressor because they diagnosed it wrong. Looking at A/C gauges you don't want to see vacuum on the low side when its running. In fact there should be a low pressure cut out switch located on your receiver/dryer (should be by the pass. side strut tower below the horn) that cuts power to the compressor before it can pull vac on the low side. The reason it was able to pull vac when running was due to the faulty expansion valve.

Can't comment on the case halves, sounds like 518 is the way to go. I use Toyota black FIPG on most everything. It can be messy and if you get it on your fingers it doesn't like to come off easy. Never had any problems with the 'Yota stuff, cant say the same with any of the grey stuff.

The purge solenoid should have about 40 ohms, and shouldn't be able to blow through the ports when not activated. I had 5 codes stored in my 90 Loyale with one of them being a purge solenoid code. Mine was open and it let vacuum through it. I had a similar one lying around and wired it up to the harness. Cleared the computer and haven't had the light return, been about a month. Although I didn't have driveability issues, the light just bugged me.

Ah haha! Ok, I was thinking the dash light would be the one flashing.

Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what color the wires are on the "check connector" for the check engine lamp unter the dash. Theres a bunch of white & black connectors under there but they all have female treminals. Or maybe a picture of said commector and there it should be located?
thanks
oh yeah, its a 1990 Loyale EA82 wagon

They won't fail an internal combustion leak test either. Best way to see is bleed the cooling system, run up to temp and make sure the t-stat opens and fan operates, next drive it. If it over heats and pushes out the overflow, its failed HG.

Hello everyone, new to the site. I recently bought a 1990 Loyale Wagon, all stock, about 174k on the clock. Not sure what my plans are for it yet, just driving it right now. Heres a pic of it, not bad for $280.

So I was wondering if I can install a keyless lock setup on my 97 Legacy L. I have searched under the dash and do not see any wiring connectors taped-up to the harness that match any description I can find for the module. Are all the harnesses prepped to install a keyless unit?
