Auto You referring to where they connect to the tranny? At the linkage on one side & basically the same on the opposite side?

Any help/advice/suggestions are greatly appreciated. I'm about to start (tomorrow) reassembling my current transmission while this gets resolved. Just need confirmation this SN ta102aa2aa-m6 will/won't be able to be used. Thanks in advance Paul

I really just need to ship this back don't I?

I can't post my SN as I've had the differential/Bell housing swapped previously and don't know what it came out of as my mechanic just gave it to me. The vehicle production date is 11/91, if that makes any difference. I was asking him if he knew where to look & he said that transmission there is junk but the differential is good, just swap it. Hence how he became my Subaru mechanic. It helps he's a Subaru owner & drives daily.

Long story short, I was told by my mechanic that swapped engines for me that swapping the transmission was yr specific due to the wiring. So I ordered one & explained the yr specific issue & was told it was a 92 with 103,000 miles. Well, it finally arrives & when I get to looking it over,it had 2 big black square electrical connections mine does not & the 2 metal lines coming out of the tranny are basically bent over in a full 180 crimping them. My electrical connections are 2 3 wire connectors & a 1 wire connector. I looked at the SN ta102aa2aa-m6. That's a 91 right? Is there any safe, cheap correct way to make this work in my 92? Please advise, Paul

Alright got purge sensor replaced. Had the battery disconnected over night to make sure the codes were cleared. So the car wasn't started in over 24 hrs & the temps over night got down to upper 30's & day time got to 54. Trying to start the car it just wanted to crank without trying to fire. This has happened b4 when car hasn't been started & the temps are cool & especially if rainy or has snowed. The only way to get it to start is to keep the key turned & pump the day lights out of the gas. Most times the battery will die & I have to place charger on the battery & continue until it finally starts & when it does obviously I have smoke & it runs rough for about a minute until it clears out. This again happened today. So I drove the car to get it warm & test to see if car was fixed & cleaned the air control valve. Still no power & slight rough idle. Under acceleration has mini backfires. Checked for codes but there are none. Now have timing belt & pulley kit on order should have tomorrow. Advice on how to make easier going back together.

Any ideas on what's been causing hard starts when cold especially if not started for a day or more?

Thanks but TPS code went away after replacing O2 sensor. Had forgotten that for awhile when its cool to cold out it was very hard to almost impossible to start without killing the battery. Codes showing right now are 25 Air Control Valve & 35 canister Purge Valve. Replacing purge valve tomorrow. Hoping to be able to head back to VA tomorrow.

Recently was driving from VA to MN in my 92 Legacy L w/ auto trans & pulled off highway to get gas. When I got to stop sign had rough idle & almost no acceleration. Finally checked codes after double checking oil & trans fluid were all good. I pulled a 31, 32 & 35. Had no choice but to drive the other 700 or so miles with the car like it was. Got the O2 sensor replaced with a new one & replaced the purge valve with 1 from the junk yard. While I worked on car had battery disconnected. Started car up still slightly rough idle better but not right acceleration & check engine light still on. Checked codes again & got 24 & still 35. Have ordered another purge valve with 30 day warranty. Am I in any hopes of this & cleaning the Idle Air Valve going to fix my problem as I need to take family back to VA & not comfortable trying to baby it 1100+ miles with kids in the car. Found article saying I could clean air valve with sea foam after getting it warm enough for radiator fan to turn on & slowly pouring the sea foam thru the air valve & it said to expect a LOT of white smoke. Ideas suggestions please
