2004 Subaru Legacy

Asked by Guru1NVMR Sep 14, 2019 at 05:09 AM about the 2004 Subaru Legacy L 35th Anniversary Edition Wagon AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Every time I come to a stop at like a red light
my car will completely shut off and when I go
to restart it, it sounds like it wants to stall
again, it doesn’t sound strong at all, but as
soon as it’s started it drives fine, what could
it be?

I'd clean the throttle plate and venturi throughly before replacing the ACV, as gunk around the juncture goofs up the ACV function often. Wear rubber gloves and hold the butterfly fully open (horizontal) to clean the entire circumference well. Ern TSG/B
