Engine Cutting Out

[barry wemyss]

ok i have a 1999 s reg 2000 awd turbo (is this what is called a uk turbo ??)

sorry new to subaru ownership

when i start the car first thing it is lumpy to drive even after 4 or 5 mins to warm up

and now and again when the temp gauge is half if i accelarate it is like it cuts out or struggles to get power but then it is ok any ideas please the car is going to subaru to get pressure tested tommorow and it is approach 90k so a service is due soon but if it is serious then the service will need to wait

cheers baz

Could be fuel issues mate might be fuel pump on its last legs

Gordy

ok is that a big job for it to be changed

i think it might be worth a change as it is hitting 90k

unless some one can convince me that they are lonh lasting i have had the car 5 months and covered about 8k miles

Took me about an hour or so to do myself it might not be that whats causing your problem tho!!

but if your going to change it get yourself a walbro 255 pump

Gordy

cheers will look in to that

and also when i start the car i get a lot of smoke

this is not normal i have topprd up my oil but i think i put to much in

Hey Barry did you get your problem sorted with your car mate?

was just reading this topic and was reading another thread the other day that I thought might be of some use if you still have the same problem...

Read This thread here... as this sounds like the problem that you may be having...
