Probably just need to replace the bulbs. When I bought my subaru the lights were the same way so I took the opportunity to swap them out for some sylvania...
Could be bulbs, could be headlight relays, could be headlight switch... I had a relay go bad, and I remember the lights being funky, but I can't remember...
I recently bought a 97 Outback, and noticed that the headlights, both hi and lo beams, are aimed too low. All rims & tires are the same size, and, as far as I...
There are adjustments, it might be from under the hood. The service manual should cover it, remind me, I'll check when I get home. Glen ... From: breckswordz...
Look behind the headlamp housing in the engine compartment for two screws pointing to the rear of the car, inboard screw higher, outboard screw lower. ... ...
The screws may have "tamper-proof" plastic covers on them that need to be broken off with a pair of pliers before you can get the socket wrench on the screw...
Group, My '89 XT 4-cyl has blown something that reduced all 4 cylinders to zero compression, instantly. I can't think of any part that is common to all four at...
Hmmm... yeah, maybe (probably) timing belt, but the '89 XT-4 should be the EA-82T, which has 2 timing belts, one on the left side, one on the right side... and...
... I read this twice before assuming you thought of timing belts already. To lose it all at once in all four even survives the odds of a lightning strike......
There really arent too many things that can do this to an engine with dual banks (a boxer or V engine). The common denomoinator is the crank pully, where both...
I can sure see one belt failing, and taking out the other. Maybe that's not common, but no reason it can't happen that way. Glen ... From: "Nipper Dawg"...
Yeah, over time I've learned about anything *can* happen... the other thing that is possible is that the fellow maybe just checked the compression on one side...
I have a question. How did you check the timing? Moolie No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.503 / Virus...
What I meant to say was how did you check the compression? Moolie No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.503 /...
I wondered about that too... Moolie, yer back!!! ;-> ... From: "Moolie" <moolie@...> To: <Subaru-Tech@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Sunday, November 25, 2007...
Ok, here's the scenario. Get in '95 Outback, 2.2L and auto. Start car and go, runs great till you start up first big hill. Get's 1/2 way up and stumbles and...
Would it be too much to suggest that it might be the knock sensor? To answer your last question, yes, it possibly could. -Ryan ... From: Lester Wright...
No, none at all. Was open to any suggestions. Just did not know the KS would cause this problem. I always thought it just sensed a miss in a cylinder and...
Sometimes a cigar is a cigar. It's the knock sensor, unless your engine sounds like a bucket of bolts. Sometimes a bad T-belat adjuster can throw off the knock...
Thanks nipper. It does not sound like that for sure. You can't even hardly hear it running. Now what about my 2nd question? Where is it and how hard to get to?...
The problem is not the knock sensor. A KS won't kill the engine. The computer limits KS advance and retard. When the engine quits it is probably making a...
Knock sensor could retard the timing a lot, had it happen on a 98 2.2 automatic, it turns the car into a total slug. It would come and go. I agree it doesn't...
