92 Stalls and immediately restarts
My 92 stalls at speed, sitting still, speeding up, whenever. It dies with no warning and then immediately restarts. It will go weeks with no problem, then die 4-5 times in a day. Any help is appreciated!

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
I would suspect the MAF sensor.

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
My Claret is doing exactly the same thing. On rainy days it can stall 3 times in 10 miniutes.

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
I suspected the MAF. I checked for codes - none. Is there a way to check if is the MAF before I throw several hundred on a MAF?

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
Doubtful if its that intermittent. Given the almost 1 to 1 correlation I have seen here regarding your symptom and what it turned out to be, id try to source a used MAF from another member here. You can try cleaning it first if you want though.

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
I had the same issue with random stalling and immediate restarts. Was the MAF. Replaced with new Subaru part, no more stalling. Try cleaning with CRC mass airflow sensor cleaner first.

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
I seem to have the exact same problem. The car will be driving fine and then just stall out and I have to stop and restart it. Usually it will then drive fine. Sometimes it immedietly stalls again though and has to be restarted it.
I have removed and cleaned the MAF. I have made sure the connection to the MAF is good. I have tested the MAF with a multimeter and it seems to be getting power. What else could this be or should I assume it is the MAF and buy a new one?

Re: 92 Stalls and immediately restarts
You can try opening it up and re-soldering it, the instructions are in the how to documents. It is pretty easy to do, and it completely fixed my stalling issues.
