hooray for new parts

[jamal]

My car has been in a general state of disrepair ever since I nailed that curb in November.

After I got arould to replacing the control arm and wheel bearing, the alignment was off for awhile, and I was getting some strange stubling and hesitation from low rpm at mid-to-high throttle. Threw code 22 for the knock sensor, I reset the ECU, and it came back so that was pretty obvious. Monday I had my car aligned (although there are still issues with that), and today I got a package:



Oooh look Subaru Genuine parts from subarugenuineparts.com.

What's in the box?



Yeah yeah high perfomance



Old and busted with a grey connector vs. new hotness:



It was a slight pain in the ass to get changed::



Hesitation is gone and the car runs great. I don't really like that the plug wires don't seem to fit all that snugly. I might be keeping the old ones in the car just in case.

Yea I probably should get arround to changing mine also. Ever sense I blew up my old coolant tank, whenever it rains hard and there's a slight amount of moisture in the air it will throw a CEL...
