no compression possible blown head gasket. test for back pressure . remove cooling system cap. crank engine. if water pushes out of cooling system, blown gasket..
This is not uncommon for cooling systems to get (hot shots) pockets of air. Fill with engine cold and fill over flow res. get engine to temp. and shut off engine. as it cools it should release any air in the system and you will need to top off the res. as this happen to keep the system from get air back in it.
If this does not fix the problem then I hate to be the one to tell you. It is a subaru and you warped the head and you are getting exhaust gases in the radiator. Subaru are tricky like that. I have one that we changed all of it but it was the heads one I changed motor it was a champ.
Terry, what's happening, is when you turn your heater on, no matter what temp you have it set at, the vehicle allows coolant to pass through your heater core, and the blower motor acts as another cooling device for the anti-freeze. The next steps I would take, is to check your fans. Let the vehicle warm up a bit, and look under the hood and see if they are turning on at all. If they are, next, you may need to flush your entire cooling system. First start with the radiator, and if that does not help, you may need to flush the entire system, which flushes water jackets throughout the engine, AND the radiator at the same time. Now, if you are not seeing bubbles, (check under the radiator cap also), I would doubt it is a crack anywhere. Take the first steps I gave you, and see if this fixes the problem. Hope it helped you out.
i had the same problem with my 1996 subaru legacy grand wagon,which is identical to yours.it had a cracked head,the gasket was fine.not cheap to get done but id get it done now before more serious damage is done.
if temp is adj by knowb then could be the cable of knowb is got disconnected from knowb. or if is motor oparated then problem with the a/c control unit. thanks.
If you can't hear the fuel pump when you first turn the key to "on", then it's not working. ANd if you have spark, then your problem is gas. Change fuel pump.
