Thanks for the advise on not doing this. One has to be real gentle with the brake pedal because the drive train will stop real fast without the momentum of the car.

The service manual actually says to do this, run the car on a lift after it is warmed up, to check out the proper voltage for the lock-up solenoid. So maybe it isn't a good idea and the service manual is wrong? Check out section 3-2 page 181 of 1992 SSM

Out of sheer fustration for a lack of SVX RWD I have done this on my other two Subaru's and the rear wheels spin on those cars.
I certainly won't argue with the service manual. Have at it.
