put in the eom wire and new ngk plugs. started rite up ran smooth thinking it was fixed boy was i wrong. just as soon as i left the driveway i could tell it was not rite. drove around the block got it up to temp it started stumbling again. starting out on a small grade in front of the house it not want to go. got back in the driveway idle was low and not running very good. to sit there and accelerate the rpm's go up. let the clutch out put it under a load falls flat on its face and will not go. check engine lite is off now that it has oem wires on it and di not come on at ll today. usually when the o2 sensors went bad the light came on. i have access to another computer maybe i should try it. it has to be something simple i just do not know what.

you are correct. 95k on car and plugs are original. check engine light was off until i put the new plug wires on 2 weeks ago. that is when it started running worse. been having trouble all summer with it. autohousaz shows ngk oem for $43. http://www.autohausaz.com/search/product.aspx?sid=3k22qqmcf1apdlfq5pgt0hry&makeid=13@Subaru&modelid=399~39~87~13~~5~6@Legacy GT &year=2002&cid=14@Ignition&gid=7228@Spark Plug Wire Set

have 2002 legacy gt 5spd. earlier in the summer it started running bad. i changed the fuel filter did not help. thought it was the fuel pump had a pressure tested and had 63psi. what is doing is when it is cold it seems to run fine as soons as it gets up to temperator is starts to miss. when it gets up to temp in 1st gear it is fine. shift to 2nd it is terrible misses bad and have to go back into 1st. the check engine light was off until i changed the plug wires did that not help. put a differant coil on it still no good. had friend come over with his scanner and it showed misfire on all 4 cyls. and idled around 600rpm. tried a differant throttle position sensor and no good in the original position. had to turn it to get the idle up to around 800rpm. when the scanner was plugged in after hitting the throttle the rpms when to 2600rpm and timing advance to 33 then fell back to around 800 but the scanner still shows 2600rpm for a little while longer the fell back and the timing same way. could the crank sensor be bad or maybe the computor.the last thing i want to do is have to take it to the stealership to get this problem taken care of.
