Abs and at CEL after battery change
somick replied to SoobGoob's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXErase all codes. After that turn the the key to ON (do not start the car!). Wait fifteen seconds. Start the car. You still may experience some rough idle. Keep driving. If the idle does not get better do the "idle learn procedure". Hopefully it is that simple. Good luck, Sam

I want to sell my 1992 Loyale 2wd
I wonder if anybody is interested in buying my one owner 1992 Loyale 2wd. 197000 miles. Still driveable, I drive it around the town. I live in the area between LA and San Diego but it will make it to wherever you need to take it. Heat works. . The car will come with some extra parts (brand new front shock (one), used oil pump, brake pads). Things not working: AC (probably low on R12 refrigerant) Shift interlock (sometimes works) Driver side shoulder belt (sometimes works) Some rust holes (passenger sided fender) Thanks for reading, Sam

My horn is possessed.
On my 1992 Loyale my son used to honk the horn with his fist :). No surprise that after some time the horn started honking on its own. I removed the top from the steering wheel, bent down those tabs and it is fine since that. Worth to try. Good luck, Sam

Subaru Legacy 2008 power steering transmission fluid
somick replied to Lonnie2008's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXTurn the steering wheel all the way from right to left (there is no need to start the engine). Easier done with the wheels in the air. If the fluid level drops add more fluid. That is how you bleed the power steering system. Whoever installed the new pump probably did not bleed the system correctly. Good luck, Sam

Oil viscosity questions for H6 EZ30d phase 1. Anyone have direct experience with Liqui Moly oil?
somick replied to laegion's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI love the attitude of @GENERAL DISORDER II - that is the way to be when you believe in what you are doing but my Camry, Accord and Loyale ALL easily reached 200, 000 miles with the cheapest oils I could buy, the factory specified viscosities and 5,000 miles oil change intervals. The only rule I have - I avoid Fram filters at any cost. My Forester is at 122,000. I may be lucky... Sam

Needs ECM?
At the ECM connector try to find a wire that sends voltage to the injector and connect a test light to it. If it lights it could be a broken wire like Dave mentioned. Good luck, Sam

Finding part numbers - 3AT & general
I have bought them many years ago but never changed them. Since they were sitting in the same package I assume they all go to the driver side of my 3AT. I hope this helps. Sam

How to remove EA82 SPFI TPS?
As far as I remember you are correct. Either the throttle body needs to be removed or the AC compressor. But if you unplug the connector you can test in place. There is a testing procedure in the FSM Good luck, Sam

Dust boot for sway bar link. Replaceable?
2010 Forester with 116, 000 miles. Is it possible to replace just a dust boot for the sway bar links? Or should I just wait for the links to fail completely and then replace the entire link? Thanks for looking, Sam

EA82 SPFI stumble
I guess you get no codes? TPS may be acting up. Could be a poor contact at the TPS connector. How about the regular stuff: distributor, wires? Good luck, Sam

09 Forester, tire pressure monitor
somick replied to Rooster2's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI believe you need to drive a mile or two for the system to reset itself. And, of course, one of the sensor's battery may be dead as well. Good luck,
