  1. Did you go stop to stop to bleed out all the air? Is the belt properly tightened? Did the symptoms change? Larry
  2. Years ago I use to make trips across the US to get cars and had like experiences a time or two. It not ideal, but the wise choice if it did not meet the inspection goals.
  3. I've checked lots of tools. No problem. I'm in Colorado Springs, 80 miles south. You are welcome to use the garage. Larry
  4. Cross members are different from Auto to Manual trans and the drive shafts are different lengths.
  5. As long as you load the circuit during the test that works. If you are just reading voltage your meter can lie to you.
  6. Load Pro is a great addition to your tool set. https://www.jbtools.com/electronic-specialties-180-loadpro-dynamic-test-leads-60-long/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-O35BRDVARIsAJU5mQWgUyIsWhJ9Yw24LZ-S25irTvrKs7nYGBHoBLmyDLb2o3aUDOPGSEsaAnyFEALw_wcB Check it out on youtube.
  7. I've towed plenty with the driveshaft unbolted from the rear diff. Never had an issue, but the front was on a dolly. You'd have to remove the rear half if possible on yours. Lots of work to remove the heatshield to get to the midbearing. Good Luck!
  8. Recheck your connectors for the MAF and that the airbox and hoses are properly installed. Spark, Gas, cranck. Do you have spark? If so you can add a cap of gas to the intake and see if it starts.
  9. If you need a replacement I have some. I'm in Colorado Springs, CO and can put it in the mail.
  10. Outside if my memory is correct. Look the back of the engine on the drivers side. You see all of the components there. Check the qty and the hose. Many time the hoses go soft over time. Start with the basics.
  11. Actuator motor is on the driverside of the dash at the center counsel airbox. You can see the linkage from under the dash, after removing the kick panel. It's tight but you can change it. Get a good visual on it first. It could still be the control panel. Does it move with any dash button selections? 96-99 panels should fit. Legacy and Outback
  12. Could be old/bad gas. Mighty try a little gas treatment and or get a full tank of premium in it.
  13. The IAC was different between the Auto and manual trans, I believe. The ECU also needs to know it's a maual and not an auto. Do a search, the info is here.
  14. On Subaru Diffs I've pulled there is a vent plug on the top of the diff. You could always drain and fill it with Amsoil gear lube and see if the smell goes away.
