Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

Went out and started the svx. I just woke her up from an 8 yr sleep in my garage last week...

Car started fine. After around 45 seconds the idle started to fall, and I could hear i was losing cylinders. It sputtered out and died.

Restarted car. Idled fine for 10 seconds or so...Gave it a little gas and anything beyond a feather touch and it immediately began to stall. Wouldn't go above 2k in revs.

Idle degenerated further, and now it won't start at all. Pulled code 11 and 22.

Help?

Re: Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

code 11 is one of the crank angle sensors with under the alternator, code 22 s knock sensor 1 (RH).

Re: Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

I was aware of the code look up, but thank you.

That said, a code thrown is often a side affect of something else. I find it unlikely the sensors would fail simultaneously, yes?

Car attempts to start, but won't actually get there.

Re: Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

The crank angle sensor would be responsible for the no start. Knock sensor would have no affect on starting.
Could there be a wiring issue such as rodents during storage?

8 years no start, Damn! I'd check those spark plugs and fuel/fuel filter. You might have a squirrel in your air box too.

Re: Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

Well it's really only NO START for the last.....2 years? Before that it got started twice a year for a few mile jaunt. The last two years wasn't possible.

I drove the car 5 hours south before she started acting up.

I'm randomly leaning towards blaming the fuel pump....a fuel starvation issue would certainly send a knock and crank code yes?

I happen to HAVE one of those sitting in a box...

Re: Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

If the crank angle sensor went bad it will cause knock sensor code to come up as well.

I think any way, I had a bad sensor that was causing the car to act up like that, I think mine was the cam sensor though it threw several codes.

I think it's the same part as some legacy's but you will need to double check that. The other Subaru part is cheaper.

Re: Car is dead. Codes 11 and 22.

Hmm...the car ATTEMPTS to start. I read something that a bad crank sensor prevents spark?


When the starter turns over it doesn't do much, but it does um....'chugle'....fire over once or twice.
