98 2.2 conversion failed emissions, no CEL, running fine
lmdew replied to lmdew's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXNOx passed, but I'll double check the EGR is opening. The old DOHC engine the HG were completely gone, dumping coolant into the oil. When I filled the radiator to get the car home, when I started it water shot out the radiator cap about 15 feet into the air. First time I ever saw that. I'm guessing the OP over heated it for a long time. I'll check the O2 sensor and see if the plugs look rich. I do have a spare CAT I could put in if I need to. Thanks, Larry

98 2.2 conversion failed emissions, no CEL, running fine
It runs great. I pulled a trailer to Denver and back to get a frig. No CEL. A friend took it up to Denver for a relative and it failed emissions. I did tap into the IAC hose for the EGR pipe as the head could not be drilled. 95 2.2 with 155K on the engine and 320K on the car. HC GPM 1.0038 - Limit 1.2000 Passed CO GPM 41.6271 - Limit 15.0000 Failed CO2 392.0529 NOx GPM 1.0090 - Limit 2.0000 Passed Could the EGR Bypass be causing this? Thanks, Larry

timing belt problems, please help
lmdew replied to kevsev7k's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXImport experts on Ebay have good kits for $120 or so. All Idler pulleys, Belt Seals Re-seal the Oil pump and locktite the oil pump rear cover screws, new oring when installing the pump. Once you pull the timing covers you will see what's going on.

Seatbelt won't retract back. I think I might hate auto seat belts.
lmdew replied to Auralynn's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThose are in the center counsel area. You might just have something stuck in the retract reel. If its done, just grab a used one and install it. The window is most likely just the switch. Easy enough.

Flywheel teeth gone. Other damage? Need help.
lmdew replied to bca23's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe starter gear moves out less than a 1/2". I'd turn the engine over by hand and if it's free and feels normal you should be able to push start it, go forward not backwards. If the starter was dragging down the engine RPM it may have died at idle. The read main seal almost never leaks but the breather cover almost always leaks and should be resealed. If you have the plastic plate, get the metal plate.

EGR Question
lmdew replied to vladvv's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXNot sure what year and engine you have but I have plenty of intakes with all of the stuff on them. If it mounts to the intake I most likely have it.

FWD to AWD conversion? '95 Liberty (legacy) sedan
lmdew replied to Terry in Australia's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXKeep the 95 and fix and give your brother the 92. Unless you really need AWD, the FWD will get better mileage and will go just about anywhere.

Denver Emissions 2.5 to 2.2 friendly testers
I have a 98 Outback that is going to a friend in Denver, CO. In Colorado Springs we don't have to do emissions but Denver does. I have not had problems running conversions through emissions but I have not had to do it in Denver. Any recommendations for testers? Thanks, Larry

Impreza Trans Quill Shaft Wear Repair
Pulled the Daughters 99 Impreza trans, the quill shaft has significant wear. I spent some time and sanded down the ridges and it's smooth now but the throwout bearing has more play than it should. Looking for a sleeve repair. Anyone have any feed back on this repair/kit? http://sumoparts.3dcartstores.com/TSK1-Transmission-Sleeve-Kit-for-SUBARU-Impreza-1993-2011-18-22-25-Non-turbo-Replaces-30502AA051_p_15.html#

2001 Impreza lost compression
lmdew replied to lmdew's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWell it was off time on the crank buy about 10 teeth. I set the timing but still no compression. The PO had tried to turn it over and I guess he either damage valves or something let loose. Hard to see how it happened by hand (that's how he said he did it) but who knows. Still a pretty good deal for $500

95 & 97 2.2, adding the EGR Port in the head
I picked up 2 engines today from the yard. 95, Non - EGR Long block only as the manifold did not have the EGR Port. I have a 95 manifold with EGR 97 Non -EGR complete engine, the manifold has the EGR port blanked. I'm looking to drill and tap the heads, I remember someone posting they drilled into the water jacket, so I just wanted to double check if both engines can be drilled. Thanks, Larry

lmdew replied to lmdew's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXYes, I'll verify the timing if i buy it. Just strange that he drove into work and then it would not start to leave.

Outback headlight clear lens be replaced?
lmdew replied to Phizinza's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThey can be polished out. Shops do this for about $100. The lenses are glued to the back shell so while it's possible I doubt you'd get it done.
