  1. Where is your son? Someone close may be able to help. Many Bases also have Auto Hobby Shops. Some better than others.
  2. Brothers 99 Legacy with a 2.2 installed is doing the same thing. No CEL. Runs fine otherwise. Strange.
  3. Nice. You could alway wire power throught the clutch switch. If you open it, it will cut the CC.
  4. Every circuit has a Load, gound and Power. Find the Load Find Ground Find Power Sounds like a circuit issue to me. Check out Loadpro if you like.
  5. Did they use Subaru axles? If not, that is a known problem with aftermarket axlex/halfshafts. I've rebuilt may Subaru halfshafts with new boots, cleaning and greasing the CV joints.
  6. Sounded like it was not turning over in my quick reads. I've also had starters drawing so much voltage it pulls voltage down for other systems to work properly.
  7. Turn it over by hand. 22mm nut on the fromt of the crank. The side timing covers can come of pretty easy. The center section is a bit of work, but you can pull the crank sensor and see the mark on the tooth. Have you replaced the starter or starter contacts?
  8. Sounds like the motor to me. Pretty easy to swap it out and see if that fixes it.
  9. Please only post one time on each topic. It's easier for you and the USMB group. Thanks
  10. There is a 2 pin blue connector on the back of the Dash. I believe that is the speedo connection. I'd check to see if you have it on the gauge cluster and then use the wiring manual to find the best place to connect you VSS to it.
  11. If it blinks 16 times, you have a code in the Trans computer. You can search the USMB for the access steps to get the code. Most Transmission shops will pull the code for you for free, if you ask them to take a look at the trans.
  12. Fuel Temp sensor is on the Fuel Pump bracket, but it is not part of the fuel pump. It's about an 1" long and 3/8" dia.
  13. A little stored energy in the driveline. I put my parking brake on when I park my 2000 Impreza OBS.
  14. There are 2 small coolant lines that go to the throttle body. Check those. Your low idle could be due to a failed coolant temp sensor. On top of the block in the crossover manifold for the coolant. Passenger side under the intake on the back side.
  15. I'd first remove the intake tube and clean the throttle plate and intake. There is a adjustmet screw on the drivers side of the linkage. Make sure the cable has some free play. I'd recheck then.
  16. We bought an 06 Forester from a Subaru Mechanic which had a rattle. He said it was internal to the muffler and a common fault. I got a muffler out of the yard and it's been fine for the last 5 years. www.car-part.com is a good source. Get one from a location out of the rust belt!
  17. Friend had a 98 Legacy Outback sedan. She had a shop do a bunch of front end work, bearings, rotors... Turned out to be the rear disk brakes. I had them turned and installed new pads. I made sure the pins were free and greased. Vibration went away!
  18. Here you go. A new hood and you should be good. https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/arvada-1995-subaru-legacy/7469232186.html
