I had a similar issue with my 90 where it would stall out on me. It did this intermittantly for about a year. Finally traced it down to the MAF sensor. When you replaced the MAF sensor, did you get a new one, or used one? Is your car MT or AT? I'd start with all the connections on the sensors. Only sensors i could think of that might cause this would be the crank/cam sensors. Or possibly something electrical. Something you might want to try. At night in a dark place, open the hood and use a spray bottle and spray a fine mist over the engine, coil pack, sensors, and see if you can get the engine to faulter. Make sure to take off the plastic engine cover while you spray.

Where was this part located? Can you find where it is on any of these pictures? http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8080/subaru/images/injectors There is absolutely no electrical connection the ECU has with tire pressure. I'd say what you experienced is pure coincidence, and/or the ECU finally had enough drive cylces of everything being ok for it not to freak out.

Like I said, the part #'s they gave you are either bogus, or someone screwed up. They are not valid. You can check them yourself at www.subaruparts.com Yes, you can tell what gear ratio the trans is from the outside, if you can find that info I mentioned. That number should be on the transmission somewhere. Thawa, what info are you talking about? gear ratios or part #'s? Gear ratios I pulled from the FSM's, and verified/feel comfortable with after talking with several owner's of various MY's. Part #'s.....I have the factory part book....plus can subaruparts.com to verify the #'s.

BTW.....those are not valid part #'s. Not quite sure what they relate to, or where you found them I doubt you'll find the orig part #'s. You should be able to find a # on the trans that starts with a TY or TZ or something like that. If you can find that #, I can tell you what year and model the trans came out of, as well as final drive ratio.

the canister purge solenoid you can let go, it's just emissions crap. The knock sensor however I'd probably suggest replacing. My bad on the knock sensor price. You can get one for around 40 bucks from subaruparts.com part # is 22060AA031 http://www.subaruparts.com/cart/?pn=22060AA031+&submit.x=6&submit.y=1

Have you recently replaced the thermostat? Or has it been replaced at all. Any thermostat that is a non-oem unit tends to have issues. They are different shape, size, and have different characteristics for how they react to temp changes, etc. May be worth checking. Also suggest checking the things THAWA suggested.

The canister purge solenoid is part of the evap emission system. It sits under the pass. side intake runners. it's about 100 bucks, and is something you should be able to replace yourself if you have a little mechanicing skills. pic http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8080/subaru/images/injectors/DCP_2471.JPG this pic, it's the sensor with the blue connector. http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8080/subaru/images/injectors/DCP_2470.JPG the knock sensor is about 60 bucks...maybe less I think. The old sensors tended to crack and give you CEL and other issues. The new sensor has a white connector. Again, it's not overly difficult to replace if you have some mechanic skills pic http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8080/subaru/images/injectors/DCP_2481.JPG

Did you get the code checking procedure from my site? Did you do the previous codes check as well? You may want to try that as well, also you may want to try resetting the tcu. You can do this by pulling the EGI/TCU fuse out for 15 min. The number of blinks of the power light at startup (16) is a default blink sequence to let you know the TCU found a sensor or received a signal that is out of spec. The 16 really doesn't mean anything other then that.
