i got a 1998 impreza, i think ive been having problems with my maf, stutery on boost etc, went out in it toniye for a while not driving it hard rarely going over 4500rpm, as find you dont need to, when coming on boost the car would almost stop it seemed more of a miss fire than stutter, then when i came to traffic lights/roundabouts the car wouldnt idle right thre revs would drop and the car car would almost cut off even the ignition lights came on a few times, then after a couple of mins it would clear and go back to norm with just the slght stutter any ideas? also a slight tappy noise at low revs around 750rpm. thanks

iff ya check engine light came on do a search on ecu fault codes/ecu reset. theres loads off info

it might be hunting for revs and you ICV could be on its way out..this should come up as a fault when you read the ecu

ready to get shot down in flames lol

for the coment on the ICV ....but mine started hunting for revs going up and down when sitting at the lights (was ok when driving ). turned out to be my ICV. but that did show up the check engine.

how about taking the MAF of and cleaning it iff you got a indution kit put a std air box back on as all thay do is suck in hot air and kill ya MAF

may as well have a wee look at the coils and plugs to
