Sudden power loss
A few times im out in the subaru ive experianced sudden powerloss
The car smells of petrol and give a bit of a backfire then drives as normal.
somtimes i chucks as if the coils are faulty but ive changed the coils.
Timing also sounds a wee bit off when the petrol smell comes
Could it be spark plugs?
Injectors
, my cover for the camshaft position sensor is lose , could this cause thie aswell ?
It seems to happen when the car is at full running temp
any help?
