Starlite

Today i drove the car and noticed another thing. When driving up a hill with the cooling fan selection on 4 the fan goes up in rpm when the engine goes up in rpm.??? And it also change by itself from blowing in the face to blow at the windshield. The windshield button is not pressed in. My brother belive there is some grounding problem. Btw code 33 = speed sensor and 51 = Neutral switch is this something important or can i drive along and live happy and ignore this codes?

Not 100% sure. I must put a stick or something in the plughole to verified that.

Now having this idling problem appearing. Sometimes when start the engine and drive it for a while the rpm goes to 500 something and the engine sputters. Restart the engine and it's normal again. Probably some sensor going bad ,i dont know what else could be wrong. And there is no cel codes appearing.

I set the piston 1 at tdc and the flywheel is then at 0. Then i put in the dissy so it points at the spring at the hillholder. Right between the two screws holding the dissy. And it points at cylinder one sparkplug cable.

Have now checket the timing belts again and they where all okey. But still the engine runs best at 0 to 10 btdc. So now i have set the timing by fealing when the markings is of for some reason.

Yes it come on and goes off when starting the engine.

I installed the dissy by watching Miles Fox on youtube. But will check it again today. Will also test another dissy and replace the ignition cables because i got a electric shock from one of them when turning the dissy.

I see i have had theese codes before. The thing that annoy me is that when connecting the two green connectors the CEL light shall turn on but it dosn't.

Tried to adjust the timing yesterday but it just wont work. Now it runs best at 10 after tdc. 20 before and it will almost dies. And when setting timing i got two codes appering 33 and 51. I have changed the tps but still cant set the timing. Next step is to swap the entire dissy. Btw when hooking of the o2 (lambda) sensor nothing happens. No change in engine rpm or check engine light.

I see i could choose this cheap or Feritta stainless steel. Oem is way to expensive. I replaced my exhaust because of rust and welds start to crack up. After dismounted the two last muffler i noticet there was about 2 liters of water in them.

Hello i just installed my aftermarket exhaust system and here is the result... Im not thet happy about it because now i get this annoying humming sound when hold 110 kmh steady speed. But it was cheap 145 Euro. (162 dollar) Have you any experience with aftermarket system?

Hello this problem have been around since i got my leone 89 mpfi. When i driving in 1 gear low speed the car stumbling like pressing the gas pedal up and down several times. Or like holding speed steady and there is a lash somewhere. Its very annoying and impossible to hold a steady speed when the car twitching and stumbling. I have read about this somewhere else and its a common problem if i remember corectly.

And this....

24 before? My engine dies when i go over 20. And my rotor points at the hillholder.

And this was a mpfi?

Eh subaru in Sweden want 559 dollars for the sensor....i dont think so. I will be looking for a used one.

Looks like this one

Looks like this one

Yes i know about the two surface wich i coated with a thin layer of sealent. The timingbelt want to go against the back panel and i dont know why. I have tryed to turn the belt but it dosent matter.

I see ..well i have set the belts according to Miles fox on youtube. And i have tryed to swing the rotor one notch at both ways but then the engine fail to start. As now the rotor points at the hillholder when cylinder one is at tdc exactly the same as mile fox shows in his video.

I dont think the belt is 1 tooth off i have checked that and the bearings in the dissy seem to be ok. Yes the green connectors is connected, but when connected the Check engine light should come on according to subaru manual? mine does not. What do you mean with reset the dirty one notch? Do you mean a ground cable from the engine to the distributor?

I only have marks on the flywheel.

And i could not get any readings from the TPS and when driving like 30kmh the car is twitching.

Timingbelts are new. Have tryed to set the distributor one tooth at both side but then it wont start.

So im trying to adjust the ignition on my ea82 89 mpfi engine. The sticker on the hood says 20° before TDC but i could only turn the distributor so it was about 0 , so i grind of some metal on the dissy so i could turn it more. But when setting it to 20° before tdc the engine start to stumble. Now its about 10-15 Before tdc and runs pretty good. When setting ignition timing you are supposed to make sure the Idle switch is of if i remember correct and the green cables under the steeringwheel is connected. When checking the Idle swits (TPS sensor) i could not get any reading on my multimeter. And noticed today when i hold the rpm at 2500 the rpm goes up and down. Might be a bad Tps sensor. so the question is where do i get a new one with 3 pins. Or do any of you have the original number? Found one that might fit but the price goes from 300-400 dollars?
