Does you car make it out of the garage Matt?

In the last 6 weeks, no it hasn't been out, I've been driving another car.

But it initially got locked away not because of the fuel economy, but because of some attention I stupidly drew to myself and the car...

And I'd take it out tomorrow, except as of Friday just gone, I'm not at my work anymore... So I'm watching how much I have to spend on fuel now...

But it used to come out and do 400 - 500KMs a week with that fuel economy... (And that was just normal running around, it only went to work ONCE...)

I'll update you all with my economy once it's all tuned... But be aware, since I don't drive it alot, it often comes out and gets accelerated hard (Sticking within the speed limit though) although on track, it was known to fishtail 3rd gear without being prompted from the brake pedal or steering wheel.. Just mashing the throttle...

Change your O2 sensor.

If it's bunged, it'll really upset your car.

Also check the two wire temp sensor is within spec. If it's saying the car is always cold, then you'll run rich all the time.

Clean out your air filter, and your AFM as well.

Then go grab some Subaru upper cylinder cleaner.

Pull the line from the IACV off, and spray half the can down this hose.

Put the hose back on, and leave it for 5 minutes.

After the 5 minutes are up, start the car up, and get someone to hold the revs up (Up around 3 - 4000RPM) take the same hose off, and spray the other half of the can in, whilst getting the person to stop the car from stalling with more throttle.

The car WILL blow a SHIT LOAD of black smoke whilst you do this, but, it's cleaning the whole engine out of carbon build up. Your car will love you for it. The neighbours won't.
