simpreza2 Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 I noticed my 96 OBS doesnt have nearly as much power as my 92 Legacy. I know my 92 was only fwd and should fell a little quicker b/c theres no awd but when I checked the throttle it only opens a little more then 3/4 wot. How can I adjust it? I know about the slack adjustment on the throttle body and that didnt really help at all. Any ideas? I would measure the voltage to see what the tps sensor is reading but my multimeter is at home and Im at school 6 hrs away.

Legacy777 Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 So you had someone push the throttle all the way, and you could still turn the throttle plate by hand to its fully opened position? I think there's a cable adjustment, that's what needs to be adjusted. If it can't be adjusted properly, you'll need to purchase a new throttle cable.

kevinsUBARU Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I had the same problem when I first got my 95 Impreza. I just found a nut that was about as thick as the slack, hacksawed a slit in it, and slipped it over the cable by the end at the gas pedal. It has worked flawlessly, and has been since 1999.
