Me, too!!

Hey, guys,

I am experiencing the very same problems reported in this thread. Twice I have gone to the dealer (who has a mechanic with 22 years of Subaru experience working on the car) to find the source of and resolution to the problem. The engine quits when accelerating rapidly, decelerating rapidly, in nromal traffic or when idling (basically anytime). It will also "buck" at times when on the highway. The dealer has been able to replicate the symptoms but no check engine light appears; hence no stored codes. The dealer pulled the codes prior the last visit but none were stored.

I had them replace the fuel filter just to rule it out this last time around. They also swapped out the MAF from a '92 in the shop at the time (for a power steering pump) and the stalling still occurred (the owner of the '92 has no such problems I am told).

The car has a new fuel pump and filter, power steering pump and timing belt.

It's a smooth runner with the exception of the occasional stalling or bucking. It will idle below 1,000 frequently and just stall out.

Any input would be GREATLY appreciated.

Ken
