SPFI conversion problem: No Spark!
I just finished converting my carbed 86 wagon to SPFI out of an 88 by following the guide in the USRM. However, I have no spark. I tried swapping the ditsy with a spare; no change. I would test the ditsy in my brothers' Suby, but the connectors are differant between 87 and 88. I tested the coil/transistor assembly and that tested good. I tested for power at the connectors of the ditsy and the power transistor and I have power there. I checked for codes and all I get is 34 and 35: EGR sol. valve and Purge control valve. What else could it be? I have an oscilliscope, so if I need to check for waveforms I can. I would just need some idea as to what the waveforms are supposed to look like. Help?!?!?!?

I can use the 3.9 LSD on my '83 GL on an '85-89 GL, right?
Find a late 80's GL-10 turbo. That has the LSD in it. Just look under the rear end of the car and look for the LSD label. You just would hafto swap the LSD unit out of the 3.7 diff into the 3,9 open diff that's in your Brat. Here's a link to the USRM with a good writeup on how to do it: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/article.php?a=36

I bought a set of StrongArms (4949L and 4949R) from Carquest for about 80 for the pair.

Help for no power and declining mpg's
I'll try. It's almost sounds like a hiss comming from underneath the car while your accellerating. My sister's Suby was the center cat, so it sounded like it was right under the shifter. If it was the front cat, it would sound like it's in the front by your feet. My sister's was quite loud; however, it was very clogged too. I've only been able to hear it while I'm driving. Sitting still, I can't hear it. Dat help?

On the SPFI throttle body, which fuel line is the input and which one is the output? I've got it setup with the upper one as the input and the lower one as the output. Is that right? I'm doing the SPFI conversion on Suby, lotsa fun!!

Help for no power and declining mpg's
Do you hear the sound of rushing air comming from under the car when your accelerating? Since you've done a tuneup, I am almost leaning towards cloged cat or muffler. My sister's Suby did that: No power, top speed around 55, poor milage and a very noticeable hiss comming from under the car. Turned out to be clogged cats. She had the front one replaced and I gutted the mid cat. Made a world of a diference. The clogged cats was caused by too long without a tuneup. Just my 2 cents.

Awesome!

Mine is a N/A EA82, but it would give you an idea: I paid 1500 shipped. That included SPFI pistons, decked the heads, and the cams reground by Delta Camshaft. Best bet is give Emily a call!

oil temp
Ummm just outa curiosity, would I have to take the oil pan out to put a new hole in for the sender? Or, could I just use the existing drainplug hole and use an adaptor? I've got an electric temp guage by SunPro with the metric adaptors. Would that work?

New Brat Owners in Tucson, Arizona!!!
Hey, I'm in the same boat! Jobless, that is. I'm currently working on converting my carby wagon to SPFI. I am planning on running up there some time this week to pick up a EGR solenoid, purge control valve and an air control valve. Acually, I'll prolly pick up a few. Dat way I have a few spares for mine and my brothers' roos. We should get together and do some off-roading together some time.
