ok guys so my forester has been down for a while now due to a bad throw out bearing. recently pulled the motor and did a bunch of much needed maintence. here is what was done and why
-new exdey clutch kit because of bad throw out bearing
-new factory weight fly wheel because of wear and hot spots on old flywheel
-rear main seal because of leak
-seperator plate because had the old style plastic on that was leaking
-fuel fliler because hadnt been changed sense i bought the car
-front o2 sensor would throw code for the heated curuit or slow response
-fuel pressure regulator repalced cause had new one laying around shop
-cleaned k and n filter
-oil change
-trans fluid change
-repaired ground wire to pcm instalation rubbed through at fire wall (replaced the whole section of wire with correct gauge all soldered and heat shrinked)
-intake manifold gaskets (pulled intake to repair wiring at ground on intake)
-cleaned throttle body and idle air control
so put it all back together and has a very rough idle (idle rpm is normal but rough) then when you get it out on the road seems underpowered and hesitates really bad when under a load but smoothes out at higher rpm
i have done this so far
-checked spark wires and plugs good spark on all cylinders
-inspected all vacuum hoses and checkec for intake leaks
-No codes
i am at a loss guys any one have any ideas? kinda thrustated with it at this point if i dont figure out soon may just have to bite the bullet and have it towed to subaru or see if turn in has any ideas
thanks
