Couple of engine issues, trying to solve
Hi, my 94 legacy N/A recently feels like it is misfiring on the freeway when/if I turn the AC on, under light throttle, going maybe 75mph. The second thing is that sometime slowing down for a stoplight or stop sign I put it into neutral and the revs hang at ~2000 rpm, and stays there hanging until I...

Emergency Brake not working
Recently, the button on my emergency brake popped out, looks like some plastic tab broke off or something. I see the spring in the handle and when I lift it the brake is applied. The handle just wont stay up. So I just always leave it in first as my parking brake, but parking on hills isn't good.. A...

Re: 1990 Legacy Wagon Gear Whine (how much is too much?)
I had really loud gear whine that became much much less after a fluid change. Just got the basic stuff from Kragen. Anything was better than the old stuff in there.

Re: Towing...how much have you towed and how far?
My current tow vehicle is my beater, a 88 GL with a bad head gasket. If that can tow the ~900lb load your vehicle (99 OBS) shouldnt have much problem with a light load. Just dont hook up a 4000lb double axel and put three cars on it. Good to know, I am thinking of buying a dirt bike, would have to ...

Contacts looked pretty worn, had a very dark tinge to them of worn copper, and white corrosion spots, after the wire brush they looked way better

Re: Car not starting, help please!
Decided I want to try and replace the ignition switch, but when researching repair guides on this it says I am going to have to remove shear bolts. Any good way to do this? If this doesn't work will try solenoid contacts, or just replace starter.

Re: Car not starting, help please!
car has 230,000 miles, and when it does start it starts up immediately, no hesitation at all. I will check the ignition switch and get back to you. Thanks for the suggestions!

Car not starting, help please!
Recently my 2.2 N/A is not starting for me. I try to turn it on and the engine wont even try to turn over. Then I come back to the car an hour later and it fires right up, no hesitation. The battery is about 6 months old. Cant hear the starter clicking like when I had a bad battery. Anyone know what...
