my subaru just started making a lauder grumble yesterday and it became very sluggish. i checked the timing (perfect) checked intake fine. i just cant diagnose the problem, it happened right after i got gas i dont know if that is related

Information on the make model, year and engine of the car would probably help. where's the grumble coming from?

Could be the gas... swap out the fuel filter. If it seems better and after a bit of driving does the same thing, it could definitely be the gas. Pump the tank. Put in new gas a little at a time and keep putting on new filters until the problem doesn't come back. Plugs could be badly fouled also, that would cause some loss of power. Then take the bill to the gas station for all your time and parts:grin: .

thanks for that tip

 

 

and sorry i didnt give hardly any info at all about my sube its a 87' gl with EA82 engine and 218k on it

 

the car really feels like a lemon i havent even put 3k on it but i have replaced the radiator, clutch, tires, and many more.

 

i hope that i can get it back in good running order

 

and thanks for all your posts

Somehow I just don't think any car that will go 200k + can be considered a lemon..

 

 

On that note, fuel filters fuel filters and fuel filters... from there, go with basic tune up stuff.. report back

sorry about calling my sub a lemon but my dad told me that mine should run with no problems for another 50k

 

 

sorry for being ignorant

heh, my folks told me that any car that i get for under 2 grand must be completely shot to hell... whelp, proved them wrong.
