I have had a couple of people ask what is wrong with the van (I guess my previous posts have been too much info). So, in a nutshell, to get the van on the road, it will need the following:

* fit the passenger sliding door handle (brand new genuine one included, but needs colour coding, or not, before fitting)

* solve the running issue. With the distributor in the correct position it will not start. Advance the distributor and it starts but runs too fast. I am guessing it is either a faulty sensor or possibly something wrong with the distributor. New dizzy from Subaru is just under £300 or there is a second hand one on ebay for £90 approx delivered from Germany.

* repair the leaking gearbox sump and top up with transmission fluid (some of the bolts would do up, then go loose again, so it may be possible to replace a couple of bolts, worse case it might need a couple re threading with larger bolts)

* investigate the clutch temp light (this might have been due to low transmission fluid, or might need clearing now the gearbox has been repaired,. the battery has been off for several months now, so it might have even cleared itself)

*put it through an MOT. (As it has sat a long time the brakes may need attention, although I have always left it with the handbrake off, gearbox in park, and there are hub caps covering the discs. When I have needed to move it, it has moved easily, so they may be fine, but this is the only other thing I can think of that might need checking before MOT)

That should be everything. Any questions please message me
