I'm not real familar with subaru's in particular - but for any car with EFI the coolant temp sensor has a major effect on how much fuel is injected for starting (and running too). I would check that - as it's easy to do with a multi meter once you have found the spec on what resistance you should see at a particular temp - sorry I don't have the info. Cheers Bruce

Zeke, you're the man, saved me some serious pain. I owe you a beer if you visit New Zealand. She's running sweet now. Who would have guessed that you don't line up all the marks at the same time. Not me since I've only changed belts on a couple of other engine before. Thanks to everyone else who replied with the same info! Cheers Bruce

Hi, I have 1985 Leone 1800 turbo, and the left timing belt just broke. I wasn't too concerned 'cause I thought the EA82 engine was not an interference one. But now I have replaced the belts it runs rough and the idle is very lumpy - no road test yet. I have triple checked the pully alignment and checked the ignition timing with a strobe - anyone have any clues as to what is wrong?
