Air control valve
Hi, I have been battling an engine misfire fior a while, I have read that something to do with the air control will cause #1 injector to go goofy? I do have a code 24? That indicates a AIC. Can I use a meter that can do duty cycle to monitor #1 inj.? The Subie is in the sig.

Re: once in a while engine miss
I'm getting back into this! What is the part # for the neon's coil pack? Or what years (of course 4 cylinder)would I ask?

Re: once in a while engine miss
Legacy777, I think were kinda stumped. When the demon goes into the fits, by the time I get pulled over, get out and open the hood, the miss is gone. I would imagine with a waste spark ignition system that If I pull 1 plug wire, I lose 2 cylinders. When the "miss" happens it's more like a ...

Re: once in a while engine miss
I wish Legacy777 was my brother-in-law, I could use some Subie knowledge! I am running NGK and were gapped at .043 and was told regap at .040. I replaced the ignitor and coil pack with working componants from my other 90 5sp Subie, and the problem stayed in the white wagon (DEMON SUBARU), and the ju...

Re: once in a while engine miss
I still have the miss, Or I should call it a MISS-Fire. I pulled a plug wire of the good running Subaru and grounded a spark plug, the miss I ahve been describing is actuall a misfire. I am only partialy missing on the problem Subaru. The fuel pressure is smooth between 30 and 40, and reflects the c...

Re: once in a while engine miss
Well let me ask this. I found the vacuum signal hose on the regulator to be marginal on the seal, and while it was, I noticed the fuel pressure acting differently than with the hose sealed? The hose had to heat up when warm with the AC going, different fuel supply demands, and leaking vacuum, which ...

Re: once in a while engine miss
Thanks Legacy777, I just charged the ac , I didn't notice the miss before, now it can miss warm, AC on or off. And yes, I did a continuity on the KS circut fron ECM to Knock Sensor. I replaced the old sensor with a new one. I even watched the spike at the ECM, with a multimeter, by tapping on a sock...

once in a while engine miss
Hi, I have a 1990 Legacy L 5sp. I have a miss that is driving me nuts... It comes and goes smoothly, meaning gradually starts to miss then as smoothly as it starts, it goes away. Usually happens when you accelerate slowly or hit a small grade. I noticed it when I repaired the AC, but it can happen a...

Flat towing a AWD 5-speed?
Hi, I was wondering about using my new Legacy as a toad? The owners manual says no more than 20 m.p.h. and 31 miles total? Has onyone used a AWD pulled behind a motorhome or anything at sustained highway speeds? Thanks for your input, Artie
