RGT Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I have a 94 Legacy GT wagon, 2.2l twin turbo. I have a problem where it acts like it's not giving more fuel with increased throttle, total interuption of power. I put in a new fuel pump relay and that seemed to fix it but the problem returned, my wife brought the car to a shop while I was out of town and they thought they fixed it by putting in a cap and rotor, problem is still there. Any ideas, problem seems like fuel not spark. And does this car have A cap and rotor, I can't find one, it has individual coils at the spark plugs.....This car was originally a Japan delivery(RHD), should it have a connector for plugging in a code reader and where might I find it?

Legacy777 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 The shop jipped ya. There is no cap and rotor. Your model has a coil on plug ignition system.It "should" be OBD2, which means you could buy a OBD2 reader, and read the codes and watch the sensors. There should be a plug in the lower portion of the dash below and off the right or left of the steering wheel. If there is one, you can get a reader. If not, look under the dash for a set of black and green connectors. I've got the procedure on how to check the codes and pictures of the connectors for the first gen legacies on my site. www.surrealmirage.com/subaru/engine.html I don't know of the procedure will be the same, but it'll give you an idea of what the plugs look like. As for your problem....I'd sort of suspect the MAF sensor. But try and pull the engine codes first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGT Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 I am getting an error code of 23, what is this? the check engine light comes on if the problem goes beyond a momentary stumble and goes out within a mile or so once the problem goes away. Thank for the input R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Code 23 is airflow meter or circuit. It looks like Josh nailed this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGT Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Thanks, that seems to have taken care of it. It seems to idle a little better too. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
