Just thought I would put this out there for future users.
After a LOT of taking things apart, cleaning, looking for vac leaks, rechecking timing, etc...I finally found out the pin # to check if my computer thought it was a auto trans or manual trans?
It thought it was still an auto trans which meant it was keeping a high idle so the torque converter would not stall the car when put into gear. Obviously not needed when insatalled in a manual trans vehicle.
I also learned a lot during this process after a few weeks of messing with this. The computer is god! No matter what I did to try to lower the idle for that matter raise it above it's set limit it would correct back to where it was at. I mean nothing would change it, pretty impressive actually.
again this is a 99 2.2 atuo trans(phase 2) Non outback Legacy engine/ecu
The plug is # B135 (middle plug)in the ECU and the position is # 25 it is an open plug that needed to be grounded. To test this I simply put a paperclip into the slot when plugged in and ran it to ground, the moment I touched it...pure magic, the idle went right down to a nice steady normal level (sorry I don't have a tach) but I am guessing about 700 from about 1300 (I'm guessing)
My conversion is now complete :)
Thanks, Todd.
