Benaaron87 Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 My name is ben and I own a pair of liberties and want to Know the difference between the two engines . Both are Ej22 but one car is a series 2 sedan fwd and the other Is a series 1 wagon awd The sedan has over 370,000 on it and it's a true performer Whereas the other is only 243,000 and seems to struggle . I know weight makes a difference . Both engines are stock Even with a straight through cannoned 2.5 on the awd it Seems lacking . Any info is much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 You have different MY on them, so there can be some differences between them, but I'll suggest that you perform a thorough maintenance on the cars replacing oil all around, check the brakes, replace fuel filters, clean the ignition coil pack and cables and of course replace the spark plugs. Also do a compression test to verify that all is well. Be aware that it's possible that the camshaft belts may have been incorrectly replaced some time in the past causing the timing to be "off" by one tooth so it's worth to check that too. And check for fault codes too. Search for information about reading OBD-I fault codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benaaron87 Posted January 26, 2009 Author Share Posted January 26, 2009 Apart from that Is there any spec dfferences between the two engines .

Benaaron87 Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 I looked up the 89 on drive.com and it said comp 9.5 100 kw And 189 nm torque . I put my the 94 on the dyno and it pulled 112 kw And 201 nm of torque out of a standard Subaru fwd . My mechanic said it's one Of the most unique engine he had seen and went as far as to say that it was a freak engine. Even with 370 ish kms on it it will still pull near in 200 . Actually I got nabbed In here doing 197 kms per hour but I backed of and they nabbed me at 147 kms LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
