1996 SUBARU LEGACY torque

B6M0419A
2) Load test (For reference)
Perform this test to check maximum output of starter. Use
test bench which is able to apply load (brake) to starter.
Measure torque value and rotating speed under the speci-
fied voltage and current conditions while controlling brak-
ing force applied to starter.
CAUTION:
Change engagement position of overrunning clutch
and make sure it is not slipping.
Load test (Standard):
TN128000-8311
Voltage/Load
8 V/9.8 N⋅m (1.0 kg-m, 7.2 ft-lb)
Current/Speed
280 A max./900 rpm min.
TN128000-8321
Voltage/Load
8 V/13.7 N⋅m (1.4 kg-m, 10.1 ft-lb)
Current/Speed
370 A, or less/880 rpm, or more
B6M0420A
3) Stall test
Using the same test equipment used for load test, apply
brake to lock starter armature. Then measure voltage,
current, and torque values.
Measured values must meet the following standard.
Stall test (Standard):
TN128000-8311
Voltage/Current
5 V/800 A, or less
Torque
27.5 N⋅m (2.8 kg-m, 20.3 ft-lb) min.
TN128000-8321
Voltage/Current
5 V/1,050 A, or less
Torque
27.5 N⋅m (2.8 kg-m, 20.3 ft-lb) min.
NOTE:
Low rotating speed or excessive current during no-load test
may be attributable to high rotating resistance of starter
due to improper assembling.
Small current and no torque during stall test may be attrib-
utable to excessive contact resistance between brush and
commutator; whereas, normal current and insufficient
torque may be attributable to shorted commutator or poor
insulation.
Starter can be considered normal if it passes no-load and
stall tests; therefore, load test may be omitted.

3. Spark Plug
A: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
All spark plugs installed on an engine, must be of the
same heat range.
Spark plug:
CHAMPION: RC10YC4
(Alternate)
NGK: BKR6E-11
NIPPONDENSO: K20PR-U11
1) Remove spark plug cords by pulling boot, not cord itself.
2) Remove spark plugs.
3) When installing spark plugs on cylinder head, use spark
plug wrench.
Tightening torque (Spark plug):
20.6±2.9 N⋅m (2.10±0.30 kg-m, 15.19±2.14 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
The above torque should be only applied to new spark
plugs without oil on their threads.
In case their threads are lubricated, the torque should
be reduced by approximately 1/3 of the specified
torque in order to avoid their over-stressing.
4) Connect spark plug cords.
G6M0086
B: INSPECTION
Check electrodes and inner and outer porcelain of plugs,
noting the type of deposits and the degree of electrode
erosion.
G6M0087
1) Normal
Brown to grayish-tan deposits and slight electrode wear
indicate correct spark plug heat range.
