darcet Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 i am experiencing intermittent hard starting problems. they only occur once or less a week, when car is fully warmed up. engine turns over, but fails to start. eventually i can get it started by pumping gas vigorously. check engine light then comes on with camshaft position sensor error code. have had local garage turn off light, but a week later it happens again. 96 impreza 2.2. anyone have ideas? thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frag Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 If you get a camshaft position sensor code and you turn off the «light», it's like killing the messenger...:brolleye: Just replace it, it's a five minute repair, one connector and one bolt. The sensor in on the left (driver) front side of the engne not far from the oil dip stick. 17$ at 1stSubaruparts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAWalker Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Yep! Replace the cam sensor. Sooner or later it won't start at all. Then you will have a tow bill too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
