Man that old stuff was nasty... but the speed bleeders are some awesome stuff! I'm going to try my DIY home bleeder on the brakes next anyways pictures Clean

Oh man im tired forgot to close bleeder screw lmao

I just replaced the slave cylinder and I sucked out all the fluid and refilled it I cracked open the bleeder screw and I have the speed bag with it, so what happens is it seems I keep refilling the clutch back up to max (6th time) and the pedal still stays stuck on the floor and I have to pull it back up.. I'm lost I'm not sure what's going on here.

I have to check my phone because I logged data when I drove the car out to MI.. granted I kept the car at 60 mph the whole way.. lets see.. the best I got with the car was 30.2 MPG and the lowest was 18 MPG the Avg is 24 Washed the car

My car has a sluggish oxygen sensor but has not thrown a code yet.. matter of fact the car will only hesitate after it's warmed up and never when it's cold.

haha sure enough water in 2 & 4 and I need a nut for the exhaust stud. Just came back from getting gas new clutch feels really good

I just came back from driving.. nice to hear the sweet sound of that flat 4

Got my motor back in and car starts but I got this weird steam coming from the passenger side timing belt cover area.. also the car sounds funny when giving it sharp throttle I'm not sure if it's because the coil pack got wet during the thunderstorm since I did not have the plugs connected. But it does start and run!

Well it starts... I was working out in the rain and all but I've got this steam stuff coming from the passenger side lower timing belt area.. Also when you give it sharp throttle it sounds like it's missing or something.

Do the heater core hoses have any marks or anything like that for inlet and outlet? I THINK I remember how I had my fuel lines.. I placed color sticky dots on them but all but one fell off :-/

yep got it thanks! lol good I did that I forgot to plug up the CTS and the one for the gauge. now gotta do the heater core lines and one more bolt for the transmission and the fuel lines and see if she starts

uhmm lets make sure we are on the same page.. here is where I'm stuck I don't see anything near by where the coolant line hooks into.. I know it's gotta be some place given the short length of the hose.. *edit just saw your edit.. Oh man.. I hope I don't have to lift the intake manifold again for that.. I just put on new gaskets..

Any clue where the coolant line on the right side of the IAC goes? From the IAC where does the hose go?

whoo engine back in car I just still can't figure out where that coolant line that comes out from the IAC where it goes to.. the rest is just putting in the rest of the stuff..

Ok I adjusted the chain and I've got like a 3/8" gap left but how far do I need to go before the splines on the tranny catch?? I took the jack off the tranny to lower it but the tranny is still raised I thought the transmission only used one transmission mount? So What's keeping it up while I got the motor almost on the transmission? this is my first time pulling a subaru motor and a manual one at that so I'm not sure how close stuff should be before the splines line up on the trans.

Like if I try and get the motor mounts in the hole the pins are still too high.. I might have to adjust the angle of the engine on the chain but hope not.

I'm almost done!!! One issue I have is trying to get the tranny to line up with the clutch and the pins to slide into the tranny.. When I pulled the motor I jacked the tranny up but now that I'm trying to put it back in should I lower it? It seems a little impossible to get the pins and the splines to all bolt in

Found the problem!! the bolt had threads the whole length of the bolt for the new TB tensioner so I swapped the sleeve from the old and the bolt and set to 29-ft lb and it works!

Found the problem!! the bolt had threads the whole length of the bolt for the new TB tensioner so I swapped the sleeve from the old and the bolt and set to 29-ft lb and it works! lesson learned don't throw away old parts until you for sure double.. triple check to make sure everything lines up like it was before!

Any other way to get around it without having to use another bracket? I'm going to double check.. can I add washers or something? I gotta move the car today..

Got a question the belt tensioner pulley when set (pin not pulled) it should still be able to pivot right? I'm having an issue with mine I think..

not showing any washers or anything..

lol people always say to count to be sure.. I dunno I'm tired lol maybe I will be recharged in the morning.. I could put the motor back in but I want all the room I can get now. Only other thing I can think of is don't set the intake cam on the mark so when I install that last pulley near the oil filter it will finally line up right..

lol.. here is what I don't get.. the drivers side is set up right.. and the passenger side the marks are not really lined up but the tooth count matches with the notch at the top.. As far as that belt tensioner I left it finger tight for the time being until I can 100% make sure that I have the timing set right.. Here is a picture.. the notch on the side of the exhaust cam counting up to the top of the notch on the intake is 28 but why does the cam look like that? It sure did not look like that when I took the old belt off. :-/ I'm tried going to stop for tonight

ugh...
