All fixed now, Had plugs 2 and 4 wrong, it was running ruff as guts (as you would expect) also had a massive amount of smoke bellowing from the back of the turbo for some reason. (possibly unburnt fuel getting through to exhaust and heating up on the hot steel ) i'm not sure but if someone would lik...

Any one know how to identify which coil pack goes to which plug in the ej20 ?
I know some later model ej20's had one white and one black plastic connectors to plug into but these connectors are all black.
Any idea what would happen if connected to the wrong plug?
cheers

ok thanks heaps for the advice guys.
How about the 4.11 gearbox unmodified, without l series low range???
Any good?

Thanks for all the info, So seems the way to go would be is to get a 4.11 gearbox plus matching diff and get l series low range gear fitted. A couple a questions for anyone who can be bothered, 1. Using the 4.44 LSD diff is possible but a lot of work In doing so, is the 4.11 available in LSD? 2.the ...

I have an sti box in my rs lib, 4.44 final drive ratio , i would really like to put a dual range box in because the current one is useless pulling boat out of the water. Where as My old stock standard l series wagon pulled it out in low range no problems at all. I'd like to keep the LSD so does anyo...

Does anyone happen to know the final drive ratio of the 2000 model forester 5 speed dual range box?

Ok thanks for the help.

ok then... Detailed explanation. I bought a gen 1 lib wagon which has OB struts and standard springs. It sits just a tad higher than what I would prefer. I already have a set of low king springs and was just wondering if anybody has tried that combo and if so what is the height in comparison to a st...

not cheaper for me..... im running outback struts.
I would have to buy a set of lib struts and a set of springs.
I already got a set of lowered ones in the shed, hence my question.

Quick question for anybody who may know.....
Outback struts with standard springs = a lifted in gen 1 liberty but how about outback struts with low king springs? is this still higher than standard?
Anybody tried that combo?

Hey Toonga, yeah your dead right mate, that plastic connection piece you circled had busted off. I knew it was broken but i thought it was just a hose joint connection and didn't realise it actually fed into the intake as well !! Thanks for taking the time to check it out, You did very well to pick ...

Having trouble with Ej22 loosing power under load. Seems to idle ok and will rev nicely if throttle on gradual. but if throtle is not on gradually it gets bogged down and looses power and wont rev out, The only ECU code being thrown is purge canister solenoid (had that same code before with the last...

Thanks heaps for the pointers fellas.
Will swap manifolds and bolt it up tonight.

Yes the new motor has two main engine plugs where as the old ej22m has three.
Is it ok to use three plug on the new motor by swapping the main part of the loom off the old? Or do I need to modify the wiring to use the two plugs?
Any advise much appreciated
Cheers

Quick question for anyone who may be able to help.
I have an l series wagon with ej22m but motor has sized.
Can I do a simple swap and put in an ej22e motor ?
Anything different in the wiring or computer ?
Any help much appreciated
