Picked up a neglected one that had been sitting for a few years, after some tinkering and new fluids shes running and driving strong. It's an 87, 4 speed manual, and yes 4wd with hi and low.

Thanks, I will look around for one. Thanks for the info, I think I know which small harness you mean, it also plugs into the idle cut off solenoid or whatever it is right? That whole piece was just cut in half, I had to strip all emissions, also had to take out the idle needle to get her running well. She runs pretty good now after cleaning up and getting the remaining vacuum hoses in the right spots. Not perfect yet but I still need to get around to checking the timing as well. Perhaps I can try to find the wires from the sensors and run it to the cut portion of the main harness with the same color wire? Any suggestions for the fuel gauge?

I finished getting the beast running by stripping all the emissions crap etc from the carb, but the previous owner had cut up much of the harness trying to get it running before me. On my instrument panel I don't have the fuel gauge, coolant temp sensor, or oil pressure working, or the instrument panel light for that matter. Any idea on the best way to get these working again? I think I have an extra harness in my box of parts but I would prefer not to replace the whole thing, I am hoping it will be possible to just run some new wiring, nice and easy. Thanks for looking and any input you have!

Thanks for the input. I'm gonna mess with it tomorrow and turn it over by hand, possibly see if I can get it push started.

Hmm I see. Plausible I suppose. I just don't want to have something else serious wrong with it. It's already gonna be a huge pain for me to do the flywheel and clutch. I don't wanna do all to find something else happened as well. The gear on the old starter seemed to be out in the ready to go position, but didn't look much different from my new starter. I don't know to much about these things though.

I see. I only pulled the right hand side cover, the mark looked right to me. The belt looked in good shape as well, no cracking, scratches or anything on it. I guess I should probably pull the other side to be sure it hasn't slipped a bit. By the way thanks for your responses. I appreciate it.

I am not sure. I don't know what the bendix gear is. Is that the thing inside the starter that has the teeth that turn the flywheel teeth? If so that was intact. I had oreilly check it, the guy said it was completely dead, wouldn't turn and just shot out sparks.

So a couple weeks ago I was on my way home, about to turn into my driveway when i heard a kind of squeek and a rattling and my 2000 impreza outback sport died. I inspected the timing belt and pulleys which all seemed fine. Next thing I pulled my starter and had it checked. it was completely dead. I put in a new starter and it still wouldn't start so I checked the teeth on my flywheel. It is missing a bunch of them and some are pretty badly warn. I was told that if it was just the fly wheel and starter it shouldn't have died, and that also I should be able to push start it. Is this true? Does it mean something worse may have happened as well? I am planning on doing the work myself when i can get enough money to buy the parts. I was thinking I should replace the clutch and rear main seal while I am in there. Is there anything else I should replace or check? Thanks for looking and any help provided!

Wondering what tail lights and mirrors would fit on my car. the rightside tail light is busted and the left side mirror is also busted. I would assume that 98-01 OBS tail light and mirrow would probly fit, anything else?

Alright thanks guys. I can get it for $100, but maybe its not the best idea if I'm only gonna be able to use the front seats. = (

Ok, the seats are the main thing I want, although it would be nice to replace the carpet. Mine is very dirty and completely full of dog hair from the previous owner. The seats being higher isn't a big deal at all, but are they bigger? will there be less room? Good idea or bad? thanks.

I just bought a 2000 impreza outback sport. A guy has a good deal on the complete interior from an 00 outback limited. Will any of it it fit in my car? Thanks.
