  1. Installed IAC Valve and gasket today. NGK Plugs and Plug Wires. Cam Sensor Replaced. Speedo Fixed. We'll see how it does.
  2. Thanks, cleaned the throttle body and the IAC valve. Pulled my spare intake IAC valve first. Saw the rubber gasket and it looked OK, so I went ahead an pulled the one off the car. Of course you were right, I should have had a new one on hand. The old ones were swelled to the point it would be a roll of the dice if you could get the IAC back on. Friday!
  3. No need for all those Old Subaru Parts now! Hope you enjoy all the new stuff!
  4. Thanks. Cleaned the Cam Sensor connector and plug as it will not come out without pulling the valve cover. Swapped a Crank sensor. Newer engine, not the old airbox MAF. Random dies from what she has told me. Larry
  5. I help a friend get a 99 Legacy a couple of years ago. Lately it started to die at random times. It starts back up after a bit. No Codes set? Ideas? I hate just to change parts, but I do have spare sensors. I'm thinking start with Cam and Crank Sensor. I would think if the sensor was out it would have a code set. Or change out the MAF? Thanks, Larry
  6. You can lock up the flex plate - Auto Trans or Flywheel - Manual Trans and torque the bolt. The other option is to use a quality strap wrench on the balancer to keep the engine from turning. As GD said 150 ft lbs. I use to take them to 125 ft lbs.
  7. Yep, I called today. Another Hour on wait. Sent a reply email, asking for response by Tue. or I'm reporting it to Credit Card. I try to work with the stores first.
  8. Still waiting for PB to refund my double charge on my credit card. Hope others have better experiences with them if they try the deal.
  9. Your pictures show you in the circuit when measuring voltage. Never a good idea to be touching the pins with skin/fingers. Check out Load Pro on youtube. Great tool, to add to your meter.
  10. Pull the rear plastic inner panel off. You wll see the latch in the center. There are a couple of wires there. The wiring from the FSM is good. You might also want to talk to the fellow that did the work and see how he replaced the rear hatch.
  11. Pepboys not on my list anymore. - They No longer carry parts in CO, nothing but a tire and MX place - Double charged my credit card for the oil - Could not complete the rebate form with the online order receipt - Spent over an hour waiting for customer service to pick up the call - BBB has numerous complaints on their Rebate program That being said, they are processing the refunds for both charges. You get what you pay for. Almost Free oil was not worth it.
  12. 1+ on GD's shop. I told Friends in Bellingham, WA well north of Seattle to head down!
  13. I'd start with the relay. Easy to swap, used ones OK. I've had the same problem more than once.
