dimwittedmoose51 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Recently bought a well used(283k) 98 Legacy L Wagon with RD for postal route. It needs some TLC, but should go another 400k if I can get ahead of the salt gremlins. The CEL stays lit up and the code it's throwing is the 183 which has something to do with the fuel temp sender. Anyone know where that's at on the 2.2 SOHC?? Some say it's' in the fuel rail near the engfne and others say it's in the tank. How do you fix such a code??

Fairtax4me Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 It's in the tank. A little bulb thing on the side of the main fuel pump assembly. Most likely the connectors in the plug on top are corroded or a mouse chewed the wires. There's an access panel in the floor pan of the cargo area behind the right rear seat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimwittedmoose51 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Thanks. I have a spare pump in the shop. I'll see if I can figure out where it is and do a swap, since the one in the shop didn't throw any codes. This car sat for like 3 years, so the mose scenario isn't totally laughable!!
