My 1996 is not firing properly; the two cylinders on the right (driver side) are not firing properly. I had a garage run a diagnostic check and they said that the computer was defective, and there by causing the spark from the ignition coils to be weak. I got another computer and replaced the old one, but the problem is still there.
I don't know what to do as there isn't a dealer on the Island, or a Subaru specialist.
I know what it feels like when the car is running good; you hit the gas and she goes; who cares about how much gas cost. I just want my car to give me that feeling of flying an airplane again.
I have this exact same problem; it happens often but not all the time. Normally, when I am leaving an intersection, it is very annoying. like to hear how you go fixing it.
