MAF is mass air flow (sensor). It's in the plastic intake snorkus tube thing right after the air filter. I have heard on here that while the vehicle is idling, if you tap gently the top of the maf with the butt of a screwdriver and the engine stumbles that the MAF is faulty. The MAF tells the ECU how much air the engine is aspirating so it knows how much corresponding fuel is needed. If it is getting a bad signal from the MAF, it will be adding the wrong amount of fuel and then ovbiously the engine no run so good.

Hm...not sure. I know the conditioner stuff is a brown mess, if that stuff were in the coolant I don't think it would be a nice green color like that, it would look more muddy. I think Subaru was adding the conditioner at the factory on new vehicles for a while but I don't think it comes in the coolant jug themselves.

What's it doing, not putting out? Haven't attempted any interal alternator repairs, but the issue could be the regulator/rectifier, that thing with the IH247 writing on it. You might be able to get that part separately on eBay or something like that (if it's the problem). This is one I was looking at on eBay, I have a '00obw alternator that started putting out 16 volts: Found this in the files:

Nice rig. Some people do some serious towing with soobs like way above what is recommended. This is a '87 F250 my dad used to have, this thing was a beast, 472ci v8 or something like that engine I think it had. I think it had the dana 70 rear diff. It had a 5th wheel hitch that would pull this large camper trailer up the steepest hills without batting an eyelash.

Right on, '99 2.2L is interference piston to valve. That other endwrench quote about the 2.2L's not being interference is misleading. That particular quote about the 2.2L not being intereference is in a Subaru engine publication as well, but I believe it was published before 1997, and it was true until model year '97. There is a good article on endwrench about H4 and H6 engines, and it tells by year what the changes were. a couple excerpts 2.2 Liter Phase 1 Engine Enhancements The 2.2 liter Phase 1 engine has been enhanced, starting with 1997 model year ... Compression ratio has been increased to 9.7 to 1 by reshaping the crown of the piston. This eliminates the clearance that was available etween the piston at TDC and a fully opened valve.

no start

You could try jumping the starter solenoid to verify if the starter and solenoid are working and that the starter has power. Did you reconnect that large ground cable when the starter was replaced? -
Hi. Hm no that first pic looks more like the engine oil pressure switch. The second pic does look like the crank position sensor. The crank position sensor is usually an orange colored sensor mounted on the top of the oil pump, kind of under the alternator, near that oil pressure switch sort of. Here it is on a 2.2L, the orange thing: cam angle sensor is also orange at least mine was on 2.2L, also orange, here it is in a few spots the orange thing.
