After being long delayed I'm back at work on my Suburu conversion. It's a 3.3 out of a SVX. I've put on a Kennedy adapter and clutch to use my 901 tranny. I've hooked up most of the wiring but it is slow to turn over. I have a good battery, new high-torque starter, and have verified good voltage at the starter. The engine is high compression (10:1), but thought the new starter should turn it over easier that this. It turns over, just slow and seems difficult.
I've got it on a bench next to the car with the tranny/clutch installed. Is there something obvious I'm missing? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I've done plenty of stupid stuff before. I'll post this over on the Subaru forum as well, but there's so much good car knowledge on this board I just wanted to ask here as well. Thanks |
