<< Morning dudes, Jim the legacy is working again, it was the fuel pump that had gone..£355.pounds ouch!!! >>

£355?! Did you get a diamond encrusted one fitted dude?!! That sounds pretty harsh being as you can get an uprated walbro one for less than a hundred quid and they only take an hour or so to change! Who was it that swapped it mate? I suppose genuine manufacturer parts tend to cost more but that sounds an awful lot.

Need to find out real soon why mine is cutting out & stalling & not starting. It's either MAF or Ignition relay I'm sure but the ECU shows no error codes when I check the diagnostic connectors on it, and the only stored codes are 33 & 51 which are funny ones. NOT sweet - it conked out as I pulled out into the middle of busy Peel Road yesterday.face-icon-small-disgusted.gif

Mine started stuttering occasionally, then wouldn't hold idle, cutting out all the time. CE light on lots.

Got MAF replaced at Dangerfield's, then everything ran sweet.

Jim dude, you could also try the lambda sensor.

Just fitted AFR to my car and found it was duff, yet no error codes!! Suspect it's been dead since I got the car as life span of sensor is 30-50k.

Replaced with universal unit for £47, better than £150 OEM part.

Car runs lot smoother and idles better, plus fuel consumption is better.face-icon-small-smile.gif

To check you MAF run car till warm then unplug the connector on MAF whilst engine running, car should cut out, if it don?t its dirty or dead.

You can also do the same with the Lambda sensor, unplug it and see how the car runs. As ecu does not get any faulty readings.

It will either run smoother or run like a bag o'shite, if so put back on. Don?t run the car hard with the sensor off though, and keep an eye on KL.

Cheers for the tips dudes!

The finger of suspicion has mainly been pointing at the MAF as it did this a while ago, I cleaned it and the problem went away for several weeks. It's back now but whilst it's less frequent it's more severe when it does do it, plus cleaning the MAF has not helped this time.

That's one reason why I think it could well be this mysterious ignition relay, another being that when it cuts out you can hear a relay clicking in the dash. Occasionally it cuts in & out several times a second and you can hear this relay clicking on & off like crazy.

Not sure if the impreza has it possibly but I've heard many people citing this relay as the cause for a lot of probs similar to what the MAF causes. Be nice the replace all 3 bits but I suspect they ain't cheap..... face-icon-small-sad.gif

Oh well, I know what I'll be asking for for me 30th then. face-icon-small-sad.gif

<< Jim dude, the lego was down S.C.P at hills meadow,and he said that the new pump gen/ subaru one. >>

Fair dues dude. At least it's sorted now!

Think I'm going to be looking at a shopping list of the following bits though to really make sure mine's sorted:

MAF

O2 sensor

Ignition Relay

Plugs

Bosch HEC-716 coils (if I can get them anywhere!)

Dread to think what this little lot will come to but I'm tired of pissing about.

Cheers for the links dude! face-icon-small-happy.gif

Have managed to score a set of these from an Aussie fella on the RSLiberty forum (source for nearly all my info for my uncommon chariot). Only thing is I'll have to wait a month or so but hopefully will be worth it as all of them down under recommend this mod to solve hesitation problems etc.

Lambda is cheap! Reckon I'll order one on friday when I get paid!face-icon-small-blush.gif
