Thanks for the two salvage yards in Salem & Roanoke.

Thanks for the reply and also the links. Sorry, I didn't ask my question correctly. There are 3 Impreza in the local yards. However the personal seem to know nothing about Impreza. What I need to know is what Impreza years will the REAR seat belts work in a 1999 Impreza couple?

I purchased a 99 Impreza RS 1st of the year for my son. For some the rear seat belts were missing. State law in Virginia requres rear seat belt. I need to know what years seat belts will fit the 99 RS ? I know the legacy was the same from 1999 to 2001. Is the Imprezs RS the same ? Also it a coupe. Thanks

Thanks for the help Porcupine73 and Sea#3. Finally warmed up enough here to work outside. I checked the fuel pressure today and it running about 40-45 psi when I start the engine. However I noticed it's zero with just the ignition on and engina not running. I was thinking it was an electrical fuel pump ? I haven’t checked the idle air control valve yet..That's next. Trying to find one to exchange and test without buying a new one. I will also get around to checking the front A/F sensor (02 sensor) Once I find out what it looks like and where it is. The engine is now running so bad that I can’t drive it so hopefully I will find the problem before too long. Thanks again for your help.

99 Subie Impreza 2.5 RS Auto 70,000 miles My son's car has started idling rough and as low as 500 rpm and surges as high as 2500 rpm with the CEL on. Codes are PO 304, PO 303, PO 301, PO 170, PO 106 & PO 1143. I've read most of the threads dealing with the above codes and the Mass Air Flow Sensor seems to be the most logical and number one cause. I bough this car in January 07 and when I check "My Subaru" records it list the MAF as being replaced in Nov 2006 on a Subaru recall. Could the MAF have gone bad that soon or do I need to look for something else? It was drivable till I had the codes cleared at Advance Auto. It took me 20 minutes to drive 2 miles home. It was like the engine was out of gasoline but it never died. I spend most of the afternoon working on it. I changed the fuel filter, air filter, checked for vacuum and exhaust leaks. Cleaned the MAF with alcohol & Que tips with no noticed improvement. I would appreciate and welcome any suggestions. Thank You

Thanks for the help Cougar. I've been working day and night on another project so had to put the Impreza on hold for awhile. I really confused, but that's not hard to do. I'm sure the EJ25 has a MAF sensor on the intake line to the air filter. Does that mean I have a MAP too? I sure can't find it. Where would it be located? This 99 Impreza is not stock. When I bought it last month it had two air filter boxes on it. One at the throttle throat and the other near the right fender well. That was causng the ECM to go into fault safe mode and causing all kinds of problems till I removed the filter on the fender well. The new pressure sensor isn't new , but it was a working sensor off my 1998 legacy. Replaceing it on the Impreza did turn of the CEL until it was started for the second time. It also stop giving a P0106 code error. Which at the time was the only error I was getting. I'm sure the pressure sensor was bad and the replaced one is good. Since I can't find the MAP sensor I'm not sure were to go from here ? Any Ideas ?

Has anyone has any experience with a SECO Clutch disc a Korean company. I have a good price on a Exedy clutch kit for a 95 Impreza which includes a SECO clutch disc in the kit. Would appreciate any info good or bad. Thanks Fred http://www.secoclutch.com/english/e_about_01.htm

Advance Auto does it for free too in Virginia..

I was getting a single error code: P0107 After replaceing the pressure sensor I now get a clear CEL for two or three engine starts, but once the CEL comes on it there till I reset it. Now I'm getting two new error codes: P0106 & P1143. What does this translate to? P0106 Pressure sensor circuit range/performance problem (low input) What the difference between P0106 and the P0107 ? The other code P1143 I can't find in the list of codes ? Anyone know what it translates to ? I seem to be going in the wrong direction. I've checked all vacuum hoses. Everything looks fine there. Wires also looks good. I have not a clue where to go from here ? Thanks, Fred

After all is said and done it turned out to be the Pressure Sensor that was throwing the P0106 error code. Legacy777 was right all along. I took Pressure Sensor off my 98 Legacy with the same matching number. Put the old bad PS on the 98 Legacy and CEL came on. CEL was off on Impreza after reseting by disconnecting battery. However after the second engine start I'm now getting a P0106 and P1143 error code. I reset and CEL is off till I restart the engine second time. Still same error codes. Anyone know what would be causing those error codes ? Why only after 2nd restart ? I bought the pressure sensor off a 1997 Impreza at a salvage yard for $15. Put it back on the Legacy that I barrow the first sensor off of.

I'm getting 17k, 30k and 50k ohms between the 3 legs. I did fine a cut in one of the vacuum hoses where it splits near the bottom and goes on the engine. I've glue up hole with some good glue and wait for that to set before trying it. I'm keeping my fingers cross that it the cut hose. Looks like someone used the wrong kind of tool to pull it off and may have cut it . I'm right sure it was leaking, but don't know if it was enough to kick the code or not. I've got a Pressure Sensor on my 98 Legacy that I will try next if this doesn't work. Thanks for all the help Skip and Legacy 777. Fred

I just had a timing belt replaced on a 1998 Legacy by Subaru dealer shop. They replaced leaking cam seal or crank seal (I don't remember which)along with a leaking O ring and the timing belt plus oil change and filter for $300. I'm located in southwesten Virginia. Your shop must have more work that they want or something ?

Is it one of these sensors? The one on the lower right with the hoses ? Think it would be the sebsor or the hoses ?

My 99 Impreza w/AT has the FWD in the fuze box under the hood, but there is no fuze in that spot. Do you add a fuze to put it in FWD or take it out. What amp size fuze ?

The code reads Airbag Control Unit. Subaru says $700 for control unit but they are not sure even that will fix problem. Plus no refund if it don't. Subaru won't even talk about installing a used control unit. I thought about installing a used one but concerned that used unit might deploy airbags ?
