Sounds like you may have the viscous coupling in the trans locking up. Make sure all tires have the same pressure. Try it in reverse, is it the same? Did they check the CV Joints? Look for torn boots Check the Differential Gear Oil, front and rear If that all checks out, you may want to pull the 4 bolts at the rear drive shaft to differential coupling and see if the problems goes away.

Thanks for the effort to put this all together!

Pressure bleeders work great. Search the web, you can find instructions to make one or buy one for about $100.00. It's then a one person job. If you get a vaccum pump you can also suck all the old fluid out of the MC and start with fresh.

Thanks, I'll check the codes and fix the speedo.

The PO said reverse was out. After getting the car and doing a little checking, the trans was almost out of fluid due to a leaking hose at the radiator connection. I replaced the hose and filled the trans. Even before I did this, the car ran great and shifted well in all forward gears. Doing a little more checking, with trans fluid now up to the correct level, the trans is always in forward gear. In Park, the engine starts to stall at about 2500 RPM In Reverse, the car will not move as the trans is fighting itself In Neutral, the car goes forward In Drive the car shifts through all the gears as it should and if I manually shift from gear to gear they all work fine. The PO also said the speedo quit working about a day before this happened. The Power light is flashing 16 times when I start the car. I have not figured out how to pull the trans codes yet. Any Ideas?

It should be as long as the wheels and tires clear.

Is this the good place? Axle Sale http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/734203535.html

Get some Sea Foam and pour it in the 1" hose going to the IAC. Let it soak a bit and then start the car. You can block most of the hose and let a little more Sea Foam be pulled through as it runs.

Anyone near this address that could hold a set of Subaru Wheels and Tires for a week and a half? I purchased these and paid with PayPal. I'm in Milwaukee WI for the next week and can not get up to Denver to pick them up. If someone is close by that could hold them that would be great. S.

That will be the easy way to go. I did my 98 with a early 90 Legacy. The attachment for the ebrake to drum was different, so I cut a short piece of heater hose to make the couplings stay together. It's working fine, but the next time I'd just grab the ebrake cables as well. All the ones I've looked at are the same up in the car and you should not have a problem with the length.

That's it, single plug about 1/4" wide. The other half may still be tapped up to the harness. It's there.

Connect the black connectors close by the green one. Green puts the car in the D-Check mode, cycles through all the relays and sensors. Black will pull the codes Green and black at the same time will clear the codes

No but if there are a great deal, you should pick them up for my 98 Impreza OBS. Larry

Thanks for the info.

I have a 92 Turbo Legacy Automatic, and someone put trans fluid in it. It trashed the gears. It's my lucky day, as my local yard has a 92 Turbo with a good front Diff. How hard is it to swap? Can I swap the complete front case and diff as a unit so its properly set? Thanks, Larry

Someone put trans fluid in the front Diff. When I jack all 4 wheels, I could put it in gear and all 4 turned. The front wheels had a jerky movement as the Diff went in and out of gear. I drained the trans it looked good, then drained the front diff, which also had trans fluid and lots of gear chunks. Anyone have a front Diff for a 92 Turbo Auto Trans?

The dash has to come out. Not to bad. What year? I may have one for you. If you pull one out from a yard, you will then know how to do it on y our car. Did the shop evacuate the system for you? R12 or R134? If you have never done this job, plan on a full day.

Push the dust boot up and see if the strut is leaking. If its wet, you have lost the fluid. I'd also check the top mount, jack the car from the frame so the wheel hangs down and then check for play up and down. Check to see if the sway bar is in good conditions and links.

If you don't find one, I've got several. $20 shipped. Larry

Make sure the Starter bolt/stud configuration is the same. Single port or dual port exhaust on both engines. Other than that it should plug and play.

What section? The y pipe or the section just behind it? Single O2 Sensor or Dual O2 sensors on the Cat? I believe it should be dual O2 sensors. I may have one for you if you can wait 2 weeks until I be home.

UP

If you're still having problems let me know. I'm out of town for 2 weeks, but my son may be able to come down from Fort Collins and have a look.

It will not drive. I'm out of town for the next 2 weeks, so I paid the guy and will pick it up when I get back. Then the investigation will start!
