Having done something stupid, nearly running out of petrol .. Well it was only 13 miles after the light came on ...

My STI UK does not have the same amount of power ...

Not jumping or missing but not the same "We're Off !!"

Does not feel like any thing in tyhe petrol .. just less go

Thanks

Also there may have been a load or crap on the bottom of your tank that has clogged your injectors.
get STP fuel injector cleaner then drive like a maniac till the tank it gone......purely to clean the injectors of course

Question

I've tried to search for the "Reset ECU" post .. No Joy ...
Some message about unable to search due to cookies not being allowed ... I've checked every-thing and I think my cookies are not only allowed but manditory ..

So is it some-thing you can explain or should I ring and speak to my Subaru dealer ?

Thanks
