Alright so here's the deal I bought this car knowing it was gonna be work so this is me reaching out for some assistance on figuring this subaru stuff out
Its supposedly a JDM EJ205 with a new harness and ecu
So it wasn't running when I bought it he was driving and it turned off on him, he couldn't get it started he replaced the battery and gave up I guess??
So I had it running for 2 days, I charged the battery up stuck it back in and started it up, ran fairly well until warmed up and would idle at 500 rpm or slightly less. Drove it around the block and to the gas station and back no real issues.
Went to start it up today to show my father how it was running, and started for a good 45 seconds or more then suddenly died and refused to start.
So now what its doing is when the key is in the ignition and switched on the fuel pump doesn't sound, will crank but not start. The check engine light is gone, then when key is in the off position and/or out the fuel pump sounds off the oil light flickers very dimly and the pump continously runs until I disconnect the battery.
One last thing ill add, when I depressed the gas pedal angrily once the check engine light that normally is on when the key is in the on position comes back slightly and flickers, I got it to stay solid one time and the fuel pump came back on properly and it almost started heard it catch and fired for a second but then the check engine light disappeared again and the fuel pump went back to running while the key ilwas out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm new to subarus and I want to learn more
