Eric love your vids! I know this is an older vid and i hope your still replying to comments. I working on this same vehicle, the owner who is living out of it on my street.
It cranks over but will not start. So i pulled up the back seat, with the key in the ignition turned to on i could hear the fuel pump humm. So i stoped and moved to ignition. Checked all fuses, all where good. At this point i went ahead a replaced the coil pack and wires. I did not pull any plugs thou. Still no start. so im thinking he may have jumped time. Is there a why to tell without having to pull everything? Also any advice getting her started? Things i may have over looked? I should add she was running just fine then he had a hard start one morning then it started to misfire, now it no starts.

Subaru work is fun to watch. Boxsters are like a VW on steroids. I also like to watch Andre at Subi Peformance. He is a small shop like yourself, but only builds Subaru racing engines. He doesnt talk much except when he switches to his native German (speaks English OK. His shop looks like an operating room. Must be a German thing. Enjoy. Thanks for the great videos. M Coleman

Nice job. i have a 2003 subaru outback the harmonic balancer went out on it so i changed it and put it back together but when i start it the engine sounds fine when running but after shut it off the harmonic balancer turns left to right 2 to 3 times what would cause that i checked the timing and it is correct thanks.

Just for '' fun and giggles'' the pump you removed has a better flow than the one from aisin. But hard to find. helps against cavitation. Built and raced subarus, tested and confirmed. The impelor is different as you can see. Just dont forget that your shop air can foul the factory torque specs! Great video Mr O!

I love Eric's attention to the timing belt. I drove 6, 500 miles in the summer of 2018. Most of it at 3, 000 rpm. That is 50 revolutions per second! for a total of 15, 810, 810 revolutions. If the timing were off by any tiny amount, the engine would be destroyed.

I am about to do almost this exact repair. Harmonic balancer/pulley chewed up a key, remnants of said key wallered out the back half of the balancer bore. Lost both belts, but crank is unscathed and intact.

Timing marks are all you need on an EJ. They're one of the easiest engines to work on once you know what they're like. I wouldn't reuse a tensioner or timing belt on any car though. Love your vids btw

I don't think I understood your remark at just after 22: 00. Did you mean that these are non-interference engines, so you can't destroy a piston if you make a mistake with timing?
