Hey Listers"

 

Hey what are people paying for MAF Sensors out there.

How about O2 sensors.

Lastly I probably need to replace the Gas Vapor Cannister. Any place this can be gotten except Subaru?

 

Thanks,

Gareth

$8 at local junkyard for MAF.

Not running an O2 sensor.

Vapor Can should be fine; what indicates it's failing?

I just got a Bosch universal fit O2 sensor for about $22. The only difference between the universal sensor and the OEM sensor from Bosch is that the OEM one comes with a Subaru connector on it and you have to crimp on the universal one.

your not running an o2 sensor? .. thats not good.

Hey:

 

A code 35 from the ECM.

 

Cheers,

I just got a Bosch universal as well, $16.

It's not that bad either. O2 sensor on the SPFI isnt that important of a component.

wrong... OBD 1 doesnt have a comprehensive mode for missing sensors or extremely false inputs. By having no o2 sensor.. your gonna be stuck in safe mode.

Having a good O2 sensor seems to have a big impact. By changing mine, I've almost completely eliminated pinging on big hills and improved my gas mileage. I'll have to go through a few more tanks to get a firm measurement, but my gas mileage seems to have gone up by as much as 5 MPG.

I didnt say it was completly pointless. I said it works fine with out it on my SPFI. Do I get worse milage? Yes. Does it still run fine? Yes. Do I care? No. I lost more than 5MPG with big tires; I don't drive my Subaru because it gets awsome milage.
