96 Legacy EJ22 auto stumbles at idle.


Recommended Posts

I've been having a little stumbling usually at idle while sitting at a stoplight. The engine doesn't die but feels close to it. I pulled the codes and got the knock sensor number. I replaced the old cracked knock sensor with a new one from Ebay and it has improved overall performance but it's still stumbling at idle. It's not throwing a check engine light even after putting at least fifty miles on it. MAF sensor you think?

 - Clean the MAF w/the MAF spray - don't use brake cleaner or anything w/too strong a spray.

 - Clean the IAC

 - Tune up time?

I did as you suggested but it still had the same problem. I put another coil on and it did the trick. Problem solved. Thanks anyhow.

Ran great on the way to the store this morning but when I came out and started it the stumble was back . Turned on the AC and it made it worse. I wonder what I'm missing here? No CEL coming on. Seems like it acts up on every other driving cycle or something? Weird.
