Need help with a 2.2L Engine (Hesitation after Timing Belt Change)


Recommended Posts

I just replaced my Timing Belt on my 1999 Subaru Outback Sport 2.2l engine (104K). Idle is good about 500 rpm, however the car hesitates when I begin to move. Then works well at speeds, and at 2000 rpm, however, around 2500 to 3000 rpm the call begins to boggs down unless I lift off the gas. Yes the check engine light is on, however it was on before I made this change and is related to an O2 sensor. Any suggestions? Btw: the car hesitated before the change, however was not as bad as it is now.

Manual Transmission. i've replaced the Fuel Filter and drove it to the local Auto parts store and used their computer. the 2 error codes are as follows:

P0141

 

O2 Sensor heater

Circuit Malfunction

(Bank 1 Sensor 2)

(i've ordered it and should be in tomorrow)

 

P0325

Knock Sensor 1

Circuit Malfuntion

Bank 1 or 1 Sensor

 

the car will not "chug" if i increase the speed very slowly, ie. ease the gas pedal. So i'm thinking Gas not timing.

thanks, mike
