91 subaru justyfi 4wd. idles fine, revs fine but when its in gear it dies between 2000 and 4000rpm. any ideas? it pulls a code 13 but i have checked the wires from the distributor to the comp.

sorry i need a motor quick and dont know how to do most of that i have swapped a couple geo motors and a honda so i figured i could do this. would it be worth it to do all that through a mech. and if im tearing it all apart why not just use my origanal motor?

like what and how hard is it

thanks do you know if there would be anyhting wrong with the motor after sitting for so long

yup its a 91 justy fi 4wd manual same as the donor but the 93 and 91 sorry im dislexic the donor is a 93

i found a 91 justy motor for my car and it only has 4000 miles! he is asking $500 is this agood deal ar does the fact that it has been sitting for 10 years ruin the motor?

ya so i feel like an idiot! it turns out the privious owner left out some important details like he tried to change the head by himself $%^&$.:-\ the with some close inspection we noticed it has never been run with the new head. the gasket is backwards and crooked and as for the important stuff if you cant get the gasket right, well you get what i mean. so any one know how much motors are? thanks again for the suggestions. its all in good fun right

3rd vote on oxy sensor, and here they oxeginate our fuel every winter you get horible milege and all kinds of problems with your car. but not this year whoopie!

cool thanks im getting a new coil at noon and i hope its the problem. we also just tested it while cranking and its got a really low signal, so good luck right! we also ran for codes and got an 11 crank position sensor so that explains why the old owner said magnetic pickup and im sure the distributor i got solves that. thanks for all the help and ill let you know how it goes!

ya it turns and as for the obvious thanks for the reply any sugestions are helpfull

We disconnected it and hooked it to the battery. could the ignition send signal to crank but not the coil?

thanks, ya all the fuses are good. and the coil doesnt have the ohms the book says it should. so im trying to find a good used one. we also noticed the ignition switch will only turn the engine if pressing down on the key. could this also affect the spark? thanks for the help!

i am new to subaru but am very exited to deliver pizza in the snow this year.(geo metros just dont cut it hear) i just bought a 91 justy mpfi 4wd. but there is no spark. the guy i bought it from said it was the magnetic pickup so i swapped the distributor for another used one and still no spark. the coil has spark but not very powerfull and the ignition module has nothing. any ideas?
