Engine swap

[dp213]

I'm putting a 2.2 from a 2001 Impreza with 5 speed into a 2000 Forester with 5 speed. Do I use clutch and flywheel from Impreza or Forester.

 

Thanks

Use the one that matches the trans....but doubt it matters. ARe they both hydraulic clutches? 2.2 on earlier years was cable; 2.5 were hydro.

 

You have the single-port exhaust y-pipe for the 2.2.?

I forgot to ask, do I need to use the cam pullies from the original forester 2.5

[matt167]

Yes, the EJ222 sometimes uses a MAF/MAP combo system depending on model, and the EJ251 Forester is straight MAP system

[dp213]

I forgot the crank pullies are different, does that matter on which one I use

[dp213]

Well, finished the swap, and no start. Turns over but won't start. Waiting for my son so I can have him turn it over while I check for spark.

 

This is about the 10th swap I have done a motor swap from 2.5 to 2.2 and the first time it didn't start right up:-(

Cam sprocket and driver cam pulley swapped?

[dp213]

Crank and driver cam pullies, yes

[dp213]

Does the 2000 Forester right side cam pully have 7 timing teeth on the back of it

[dp213]

I'm sorry, left sidecam

[dp213]

Swapped pullies and checked timing. It has spark and its getting fuel, but it just turns over and won't start.

 

I used the intake from the Forester, tomorrow I mat swap the intakes and put the one from the 2.2 on and see what happens.

Well, now I'm baffled. I have tried everything and still no start. I am now sitting with a 2001 2.2 motor from an Impreza 5 speed in a 2000 Forester with a 5 speed. I have the intake and pulleys from the Forester on, I have fuel (won't even start with starting fluid). I have spark, I have tripple checked the timing and I replaced the crank sensor. All it does is turn over but won't fire.

 

Anyone have any ideas.

 

Thanks
