More EJ25 problems
So bought a RS with 2.5L EJ25. I was aware of the head gasket problems before hand and I actually bought it cheap with the blown driver side gasket since they didn't want to have it fixed and I knew I could do it myself. So, stripped the motor down, replaced the gaskets put everything back together. Everything is torqued right, no parts left over no bolts left over, wiring harness connections are all made. Go to turn it over last night and it just cranks. Will not fire up. Fuel Pump is connected i can here it turn on. Turned the key on and off a few times to prime the lines still won't start. Any ideas? I know its getting gas, I haven't checked to see if the pack is getting a spark down the wire yet though. Anything weird about this motor I should know that needs to been done after reinstalling everything that could be keeping it from starting? This is the first subaru I've owned so any help or tips would be great. Thanks.

I am going to guess that you reversed the location of the fuel lines from the filter to the rails. That's the easiest thing to mix up...

Ignition is triggered by a sensor on one of the camshafts. Is it connected?
