does the sf have a low fuel warning light ?
I'm seeing how much i can get out of the last portion of a tank before the light comes on. Trouble is i've been driving around all day with it on zero and the light hasn't come on. I know the gauge may read slightly out, i just don't want to look like a tit when i've run out as i've been waiting for a light that may not be there :)

This is going to sound stupid but if i don't ask i won't know
You're supposed to take it out of gear 1st mate ;-). Or living in part of the country with no hills isn't doing your physique any good !

And again but looking from on top. Would appear to be attached to the rear of the block or the pipework for tge turbo ? Could be different for those with smaller coolers ?

import??? or not
What's the odometer showing ? Kms or miles ? Steering Wheel looks like an import as correct me if i'm wrong but i think that they have the subaru logo on instead of a momo branding

definitive guide to knock
As there anywhere that has a comprehensive gude to subaru knock ? I've searched and many different things and peope have said this and that. I'm prob being paranoid but as the baby due date approaches i keep hearing more and more little noises that are making my wallet wince. She's always slapped a little on start up and goes away once warm but the last couple of days the slap has gone away but she sheems to be a little louder and there is a little rythmical clatter which hasn't gone away. My daily commute is only 2 miles and i've been driving this week due to running around. Maube she's not warm enough, or sounding different due to the damp weather. Boosts fine and no horrible noises around 2k and above

obd versions
Gambit, Don't hold me to this but it looks like all jap cars from around 94-99. They use the obd style port as an interface . Is there anyone on here with a uk spec classic we could ask to confirm ?

obd versions
While looking around i've just answered my own question for anyone with a my99 or below you will need a ps701 diagnostic tool. And they are about a ton so if i need to i'll just stick to counting the flashes of the CEL

obd versions
This is what's confusing me. The wiring at the back doesn't add up to the number of pins. I'll see if i can get a new on . Thanks for the help :)

obd versions
cheers, being a 97 i thought it may be compliant, i'm just a little confused as to the port, i think i have the sets of leads under the dash too as i found a group of about 4 the other day. i'll have a dig around tomorrow, did the subaru own system attach into the 16 pin port then ? just out of interest what port/amount of pins have others got on 98/99 models?

obd versions
bought a cheap scanner off the bay, finally found out that it won't read my ecu as it's an elm32 protocol and early obd isn't compatible, so i had a hunt round for odb1. but the access port under the dash conflicts this as it would appear to be obd2, so further investigation led me to think i was ok and just needed a different scanner, from what i read it isn't odb2 so i'm confused as hell, i can't work out if mine's been butchered or not as the picture shows it's a bit mangled i have pin 1 4,5 12 & 13 but it looks like someone attacked it with a screwdriver, the loom at the back has at least a dozen wires running into it, does anyone have a clue as to what it is or can point me in the right direction, as the pin configuration doesn't relate to any of the protocols in use, did subaru use their own system before the wordwide acceptance of a standardized system ? found this but i'm still in the dark http://www.obdii.com/connector.html#dates
