feels like running on one cylinder
Car: Subaru, Legacy, 1994 - Back to Fix-It - Subaru Legacy Repair Manuals
Q.why does my 1994 and my 1996 subaru legacy shake and act like I'm running on one cylinder when I try to climb a hill?
I already checked/done: I have had all the repairs down to replacing the catalic convertor I have spent 1000.00 of dollars, and still have the same problem even had it serviced at the subaru dealer yet it still does the same thing
Answer When was the last time the engine was tuned up?
No, not just plugs, but a full tune up! The whole nine yards! Any part of the secondary ignition will do this including the ignition coil or coils! This sounds like a classic ignition misfire! They usually go bad under a load like under acceleration, but can be noticeable at any time. It is very important to have your engine equipped with good tune up parts or you may be causing damage to other components of you car like the catalytic converter which can be expensive!
