February 19, 200917 yr 11 - Crank angle sensor/circuit Ah HA! I thought that sounded like a CAS issue. alright, so next thing to try is to make sure you've got continuity through the 3 wires between the ECU and crank angle sensor. if you've got a bad connection there, that might throw the starter code as well (it doesn't know the engine is turning over).
February 19, 200917 yr Author ya i had changed out the crank sensor, i just OHM'ed out the wires from the connector where it plugs into the ECU to the connector that plugs into the crank sensor and all 2 wires are good full length. i hope dave and i can figure it out, i can't wait to hear it STAY running and be able to drive it.

February 20, 200917 yr Author ITS ALIVE MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA sorry but im EXTATIC RIGHT NOW, Suberdave was kind enough to take some time to come by my work tonight and was able to figure it out. i was going to drive it home tonight, but with straight pipe right off the cats. also i would of had to take my time to finish the wiring, tuck it all up, put on my fender, etc. i figured i will just go into work early tomorrow, button everything up and then take it for its test run before we open the shop. MORE VIDEO'S COMMING SOON!!
February 20, 200917 yr awesome,what did it turn out to be?that would be good troubleshooting info:) good for you mate!cheers, brian
February 20, 200917 yr Author the fuel pump relay was getting a constant ground from the ECU, also it was not getting switched 12V like it needs to activate the relay. fixed the 12V power source issue and that was that. it sounds mean right now with open exhaust, ill get some vids tomorrow when at work, might have to play a little and see how well the TQ the EJ puts out can be used to climb some cars.
February 20, 200917 yr HAHAHHAHAH....so you don't have to listen to him ramble!were all guilty................cheers, brain:drunk: FNA! I'm probably almost as happy as you are Shean. Thanks Dave for the help.
February 20, 200917 yr SWEET. glad to hear it. yea, by hooking that wire up to a constant 12v, the ECU wasn't turning off....makes sense. glad to hear it lives. and I can't wait to see the aftermath!
February 20, 200917 yr Author ya i woke up today at 5:45am so i can get to work extra early (we open at 8:30am) so i can put everything together and take it for a drive.
February 20, 200917 yr Author ************ing mother ************ing some of a *************** piece of ************ well of corse i come in this morning, fix what needed to be fixed, run the harness through the car and it won't run again. fuel pump and relay are working properly now. but IT WONT ************ING START. honestly now im just sick and tired of this ************ing car
February 20, 200917 yr BREATH! Its gonna work! You know it will. It might just be waiting for the sun....
February 20, 200917 yr Author I'M DRIVING THAT SHNIT TONIGHT!!!! figured it out, my dumbness, and my smartness at the same time. pictures to come.
February 21, 200917 yr Author ya needless to say, 1st gear is worthless in 2wd even on 28's at WOT, it will chirp 3rd gear. i surprised a little honda on my way home from work, they didn't want to let me in by speeding up, so i tossed it into 3rd and pulled away laughing the whole time. i cannot wait to get it out and do some wheelin, but tomorrow i hope to build a exhaust for it while at work. then some time next week i hope to add in some 1.5inch spacers in the front to help with rubbing.
February 21, 200917 yr ...i hope to add in some 1.5inch spacers in the front to help with rubbing. Also you can Swap there Better Coil Springs... I Use the Front ones from a Ford Tempo in Both my Wagons, is the Same thick and Size than the Subie`s, but plus two more Turns... Works Great!
February 21, 200917 yr Nice work!!! It has given me motivation to get mine going... Got the block and heads clean, ready to assemble. I just want to jump space and time and get to where you are with yours and skip all the crap I know I don't want to do... trouble shooting, exhaust fabbing, ECU wiring...
February 21, 200917 yr im glad to hear it i just got my legacy back on the road for my DD so now i can focus on the coupe
February 21, 200917 yr Author thanks everyone, ya its a BLAST to drive now. once i get a exhaust on it i will be more willing to drive it every where. that and get some gauges hooked up.
February 21, 200917 yr Yea,,! I am in the mist of the same project I have the EA82 pulled out of my 87 GL-10 and am now proceeding with pulling out the push button 5 speed today. I am also in the market for a good dual range. Once I find one & putt it in I will then continue with the EJ22 install . Look forward to seeing more, R4C:banana:
February 21, 200917 yr Author i want to thanks everyone on this forum for the help and inspiration to do this EJ22 swap!!!! it is the BEST mod ive done with this car i can now idle up hills in 4hi when i used to have to have it in 4lo and WOT to make it.
