Need some quick answers....
dncnstuart replied to suban00b's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI had a similar problem. Turn the ignition, and it would either click once, or nothing. SOmetimes I'd turn that key for several minutes before it would start. Had the starter rebuilt, didn't help. Turned out to be the ignition switch itself. Replaced that, no probs since.

Problem 2
dncnstuart replied to dncnstuart's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWhatever the problem is it keeps coming and going. But when the CEL lights up there's no temp reading at all. Also, when I start it in the morning, it coughs, splutters and runs really weird until it warms up. I'll check the wires and connections. What's the other temp sensor? The one I changed is a metal probe about 1.5-2 inches long that bolts into the engine. It's got a dual wire connector attached.

Problem 2
dncnstuart replied to dncnstuart's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe CEL is for the temp sensor (which I've replaced after the first time)

Problem 2
Any ideas on how to get stop leak out of my cooling system? It keeps triggering a CEL (temp sensor) I can take it to JiffyLube for their radiator flush and reset the ECU, but a few weeks later it pops up again. I've now had 2 flushes at $80 a pop. (94 impreza 1.8 5 spd)

1994 Impreza 1.8 Help
dncnstuart replied to dncnstuart's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI'm positive. I counted 3 times, just to make sure. I found a codes list somewhere and it said that 34 was something to do with the EGR valve?

1994 Impreza 1.8 Help
dncnstuart replied to dncnstuart's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXOk, it worked great. I got error codes 21 (Water temp sensor according to the Legacy site) and 34 (Not on the legacy list) So.....my next questions are: 1) How hard is it to swap out the water sensor? (Try not to get too technical, I know more about puters than cars) 2) What's code 34?

1994 Impreza 1.8 Help
dncnstuart replied to dncnstuart's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe only other noticable symptom is that the car coughs and splutters when it's cold. Other than that, it runs fine.
