  1. Make sure the throttle plate is all the way closed. I'd get the airbox and all hoses back on/connected.
  2. Check the hood emissions hose chart. It may have it. Looks like there is enough material there that you could go to ACE Hardware and get a brass fitting that is a barb on one side and and pipe thread on the other. Get the correct tap and thread it.
  3. I'd ask him to hook up his MAXISYS scanner and check to see what is happening.
  4. If the old one does not have the external spin-on filter but the new one does, correct it will not work.
  5. The trans chart I have did not find the TZ1A2ZJEAA, what did it come out of? Quick google search found this: 31000AD830 Genuine Subaru Trans AY/TZ1A2ZJEAA - Subaru … This part fits 1999-2001 Subaru Impreza, 1999 Subaru Legacy, 1999 Subaru Outback. Affordable, reliable and built to last, Subaru part # 31000AD830 Trans AY/TZ1A2ZJEAA stands out as the smart option. SubaruPartsDeal.com
  6. I have not been into the 2005 Forester doors, but I could hit the yard and pull one open. Since it's in both directions, it sounds like the window regulator hardware. A good visual inspection will most likely tell you much. Let me know if you want me to open one up at the yard. You-Tube has a few replacement videos. Amazon has the complete part $60 Email sent with links.
  7. Movie looks like the cable is correct. Not much latch info as the hood loop has to press the hook of the latch down to set the hood latch. Was it in an accident? You can take a screwdriver shaft and press down the latch to make sure it springs over center and locks. If that works, something is out of alignment.
  8. Just look at the teeth on the crank sprocket if they are different, both need to be changed.
  9. A good Transmission shop may be able to diagnose the problem further. Worth a try. If you need the sensor and wiring harness, I'd hit a self-serve junk yard and pull them. Swap them in and go.
  10. A friend has a 99 Forester and he wants to change the front hub bearings. The NAPA with a machine shop closed. No hydraulic press available. What Hub Tamer do you like? Anyone close to Colorado Springs, Colorado with one? Thanks, Larry
  11. Unhook the battery for 30 minutes or so. If the fault is still present when you turn the key back on it will set again. Can't read the code?
  12. So when it starts and runs, how long are you running it? I take it very short since there is no coolant as the radiator is out? Radiator in, filled with coolant, and no start, is that the case? www.car-part.com will let you search for an engine. If it was running well before the belt broke, I would not give up on the engine yet. What caused the belt to break?
  13. The bulb sockets also. The connections sometimes have very high resistance/burned contacts.
  14. I picked up an automatic 99 Forester 189K. Some banging when shifting from Park to Rev and Rev to Drive. The FWD mode did not change the symptoms. Inspection of the driveshaft and rear diff. did not show excessive play. It does have aftermarket front halfshafts. When I get to it, those will be replaced with Subaru parts and I'll check the front diff play.
  15. Good Rust free ones from a state like Colorado...... Reboot the Subaru axle and you are good to go. www.car-part.com
  16. Put a spare plug on a wire and see if you have spark. good spark, put a little gas in the intake.
  17. Other than you are in the rust belt. I always pick a car that has been hit hard, at least that way you know it was on the road and driving. Then check mileage and condition. Finally, pull the drain plug and put your finger in the hole to check for bad stuff in the pan. The trans will be drained but there is always some still in there. The auto trans is very heavy. Cleaning the old gasket material off the trans is a pain with it still installed in the car. Are you going to swap the complete transmission?
  18. You can just jump the pins to Power and ground. If you have an old Subaru connector you can pull the sockets out of that is idea. Should click when powered.
  19. Did you check the solenoid operation jumping the pins to power and ground? How's the harness look?
  20. Thanks. I put it on Marketplace, we'll see if it sells. I'm also watching for an engine. No Rush.
  21. Pulled the VVT solenoid plugs today. It started up and ran, but good knock. Drained the oil and cut the filter open, it was full of metal debris. Looks like a engine change. So it goes. I don't know how is sounded so good when they first started it up. That's life.
  22. The PO said the 99 Forester Subaru Keyless Entry/Security System was giving her some problems. I had it auto lock the door on me one time, so I removed it. I did find a wire pulled out of the connector, so that may have been the issue. Anyway, everything works except the lock/unlock of the drivers door with the manual switch on the arm rest. I have not dug into it but if you have fixed this, please let me know. If anyone wants the old removed system, make me an offer. Wiring, mounting bracket, motion sensor, ignition kill switch and siren.
