I just bought an OBD2 scan tool with an adapter for OBD1 Subaru. Should be okay 
but I'm saving your emai just in case.

Duncan, don't know if you think you will have a mechanical issue or a computer 
issue but you might want to talk to Kurt Troger. we went to the Munster show 
last weekend and he said after he rebuilt the engine in their 78 westy and 
bought a program (or whatever) to set the air sensor and all that garbage in 
the newer engines it runs great. Even helped the performance of his 62 Beetle.

Thx, Sammy.

Only possible trouble be could with the ECU having learned a different driving 
style (might have to use the old intake manifold) and finding the correct 
position for the accelerator cable so it doesn't stall while idling.

BUT with Chuck's expertise! 'Nuff said.

Just going to swap out another SVX for now. The least expensive was also the 
closest in FW. Woohoo!
