Just a guess, sir- but good luck! Seems like that was exactly the problem. Stocker is in, cooling system fixed. Now to troubleshoot the idle. I’ll be going after MAP or IAC next to see if one of them is making it act funny. Right now it has changed to the point where it idles real low for most of the time (500rpm or so) with a rare occasional self controlled blip upto 900/1000rpm for a second or two just to go back down to low idle. Also my damn knock sensor is dead and keeps throwing the light, which is throwing the timing on a roller coaster ride :ahh --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/more-mysteries-from-the-subaru/249676)._
