  1. Stay away from cheap wires for sure.. I have some wires.. I went to pull the boot and the part that plugs into the spark plug ripped right out of the boot.. on the other hand good thing I did that since the #4 plug was starting to get loose with black carbon over the outer boot plug.. Not sure how that happen as I made sure all were sung back in early march. nevertheless I ordered NGK replacement plug instead of this no name whatever the last owner had on here.
  2. The black wire is the signal and I think it's a grey or white wire for ground right? I want to check my oxygen sensor to see how responsive it is with my digital oscilloscope What range should I be seeing? I'm guessing it should react pretty much instant on throttle changes, no?
  3. Thats the same way I would of done it also.. When I did the front crank shaft seal I used the largest axle nut I could find and drove it in just like the FSM said.. 3 years later no leaks.
  4. next week sometime i'm going to change all 4 struts Im going to leave the strut mounts in place only thing is on like little joint cracks in the road I get this dull metal sound and it's pretty loud at least from listening at the drivers side. I'm not sure if it's the drivers side strut or something else
  5. Im going to start with the cheapest which is replacing these cheap plug wires the last owner got with some NGK wires. At the same time finally get to those intake manifold gaskets that need to be changed. After that I will move on from that point on. Most likely I will be working on the birthday
  6. I don't see the big deal over this seal is about.. just find a pipe or whatever the same size as the seal and tap it in
  7. Im not sure if I can find a replacement hose I was lucky enough to get a replacement for the FPR one.
  8. My hose that goes to the engine block is split as well what effects would it have? I just never got around to replacing it.. I did replace the line that went to the FPR because well.. that hose just snapped.
  9. Looking at the fuel rail pictures here can I pull the whole fuel rail out without worrying about the orings?
  10. I use armor all wipes maybe I should stop now
  11. sorry late here but at least for my 95 Legacy the red injectors are NON California spec car.. If you have Grey fuel injectors it's for a car California.
  12. Oh I went out for a drive the STFM seems to be within it's correct range Im going to check the coil pack in the morning my birthday is on saturday so not much work is going to be happening then.
  13. I only know of the one on nabisco I've seen in an Asian movie I was watching (Thai) two black/tan outbacks one after the other in the movie haha. Don't forget the subaru in true lies
  14. wow never knew the subie was in it.. now I gotta watch it now!
  15. Anyone have the pinout for the oxygen sensor? I think the sensor is ready to say times up! I wanna put my scope to the sensor.
  16. its hard to get the readings because it only happens under load so I would have to be driving.. I can check the ST and LT fuel trim.. I don't remember if the FSM has it but which wire on the oxygen sensor is the signal wire so I can back-probe with my oscilloscope I would not be one bit surprised if the o2 sensor is slow to react to changes but I don't know if the sensor has so much in say to cause hesitation. oh yea no pending codes yet
  17. Hmm check this out.. lazy front oxygen sensor? Oh and pulling the plug for the CTS was not the issue.
  18. Im going to go hook my live data scanner up and see if Im getting a false reading from it.. I replaced the CTS no more then 4 months ago.. I still have the old CTS in the box the new one came in and I tested it and it's fine.
  19. Here is a youtube video I just uploaded from my phone
  20. Need spacers? I planned on putting something a little more then $24 lol but just curious.. lol Once I at least get the motor and Suspension done I can focus on audio.
  21. You know I was thinking about this when getting gas this morning when I would leave for work like 5-6 months ago the on-ramp near my house I will be in 3rd gear and I'd keep steady on the throttle and you could feel a very slight hesitation back then.. but now in the past few days it's gotten much bigger. when I was last testing fuel pressure like a month ago it seemed to read fine but the pressure went to zero pretty quick after the car was shut off.. i have a youtube video showing that. back when I did that fuel test I wanted to also test the coil pack but I had a hard time getting the clip off.. I think you test between the terminal and one of the pins on the clip? I also got a sound clip of what the car sounds like starting up after sitting for like 40 min.
  22. I think it's my injectors at this point.. I was set to do some work on the car until a friend told me he needed help cleaning out his fire damaged house.. so nothing done today.. When you start the car like right after you stop it like a 3 min break (getting something to eat) its normal but when I was helping move stuff and sitting like 1 hr it sounds almost like a flooded engine when I head back out to get gas (MPG taking a hit) I will be sure to grab a sound clip after it's been sitting for 2 hours. I guess it's not enough to cause a CEL because well the ECU still sees that the injector is connected. and how many miles you got jzacher? I rolled over 232 not too long ago.. but really.. How much longer can I expect for injectors to keep shooting fuel?
  23. I will check both but I figure bad fuel pump would cause issues at idle too right?
