The starter was seated good and all. It would occasionally work since it's been down. The wire that runs to the main terminal (with nut) isn't getting power. I ran a jumper wire straight to the battery and it kicked it out and spun. Before the clicking I heard was it just kicking it out.

So the car did jump time. As I said, I lined it all back up and the starter didn't want to work. Got a new starter and same thing, it would kick out but it wouldn't spin. Ran a wire from the terminal to battery and it spun but... the starter didn't seem right and didn't catch the flywheel. I roll started it and it fired right up though! Thanks a lot everyone for the help but especially you nipper.

I viewed an article that showed how to line it up and now the starter is just clicking... cue the frustration! I'll deal with that tomorrow. The fuel pump looks to have been changed out. It looked newer than the "hanger" and there was tape over the access panel.

Thanks nipper, I've saw you reply to a lot of threads and you seem knowledgeable and helpful. I'm going to pull the cover here in a minute. On the paper of the things they have done it said timing belt/water pump so who knows about pulleys, tensioner, and seals.

I drove the car home from work, no issues, and parked it. The next morning, it wouldn't start.

Yeah I know but different motors have different quirks. I also own a turbo rx7 too lol I haven't pulled the cover to check the timing belt yet but the car has wrote on it "timing belt 252,xxx". It only has 270k on it now. There was also a receipt for it in the glove box. Thanks for the next thing to check, I'll pull it in a bit.

I'm at a loss here, I'm a Jeep man and new to Subarus... 91 Legacy n/a One day it wouldn't start (but cranks) and it gave me no issues before. Things I've done/checked: Fuel pump was going up to 35 psi. Also won't start if you spray starting fluid. It's getting good spark. I tested it with a test light. Ignitor, coil, and plugs have been changed. I've replaced the knock sensor. I've ran a jumper wire from the battery to the spade connector on the starter. I've checked the codes by connecting the black wires underneath. Codes 12 35 and 49. Any ideas???

Where exactly is the immobilizer? I'm having starting issues and I'm at wits end with this thing. I'm a Jeep man but I really like this little subi
