Replying to: rinovirus (Jun 25, 2009 3:42 am) If it is like the others I have seen during the years: force your hand between the base and the back seat cushions in the middle. You should be able to find a strap that pulls the base cushion up and swing it towards the back of the front seats. It takes a bit of effort to pull on it. Then lay the seat backs down. Also look carefully at the top of the seat backs, they will have a tab and lock system to mesh the two parts together to hold it in the correct position.   Dead give away to this system is the two hinges on the front of the base seat cushion.

Replying to: rinovirus (Jun 25, 2009 3:42 am) Yep, remove the bottom cushion first, then it does.

Replying to: girlcarbuilder (Jun 25, 2009 6:40 am) That's how my '97 Outback works. You have to remove the headrests on the rear seat on mine too.

Replying to: tommy69 (Jun 29, 2009 12:53 pm) Yup, there is a lot already written on this topic. Type misfire into the forum search space and it will pull up all of the info. Any more questions after you sort out all of the possible problems, let us know. This is a common problem with all older OBD I and II systems.

#18178 of 18381 '93 Subaru Legacy steering vibration by hypster908 Jun 30, 2009 (7:05 am)
I have a '93 Subaru Legacy. I bought it from a close friend back in '04. Then in '06 it started making some serious grinding and vibration noises when I would make sharp turns at a slow speed. Like when I'm pulling into a parking spot in a parking lot. I try to straighten the wheel or step on the gas to silence the problem but it sure is annoying. My friend had no idea what I was talking about and she had bought it brand new back in '93. Other than that, the car's tip top. Any ideas?   Many thanks Replies to this message: girlcarbuilder (Jun 30, 2009 10:00 am) hypster908 (Jul 02, 2009 5:56 am)

Replying to: tommy69 (Jun 29, 2009 12:53 pm) In order, starting with the cheapest fix, check or replace:   Spark Plugs Fuel Filter Spark Plug Wires Ignition Coil   I bet it's the coil. About $80 wholesale costa, and the 4 cylinders only need one.

Replying to: hypster908 (Jun 30, 2009 7:05 am) Okay, what is the mileage? The reason I ask this over and over again is because certain models have little things that go wrong at certain times. Makes targeting a problem that much more accurate the first time I write.   Could be a power steering system problem, something in the transmission or the drive train. But I will start you off with, check your power steering fluid level. Make sure it is full and NOT over filled. If you have run it too low for too long, you may have damaged the sytem. I hear many a neglected power steering system going down the street at times making the beginning noises asking for assistance only to be ignored by the owner. After a while, the grinding starts.   Get back to me either way, so we can get to the bottom of this one. That sounbds like one noise you need to know the source of pretty quick.

#18181 of 18381 ECU question by sangerboy Jun 30, 2009 (6:34 pm)
My '95 Legacy Outback quit running today. Will turn over but not start. I'm about to start testing the various possible culprits but I'm very suspicious that it could be the ECU. When putting the code scanner on the OBD II terminal it wouldn't even trigger the scanner. What is the power source of the ECU? Is there a fuse or relay that could be cutting power to it? I don't mind replacing it but I want to make sure that that is what needs to be done as I know they are very expensive. The car has a lot of miles but still runs great so I'd like to keep it going. Thanks for any help, Greg Replies to this message: girlcarbuilder (Jul 01, 2009 6:07 am) sangerboy (Jul 01, 2009 11:56 am) girlcarbuilder (Jul 02, 2009 4:53 am) and 3 more...
