Help, I killed it!
I was replacing the spark plugs in my Subaru (yeah, I just wanted to do it myself so I could get my fingers dirty).
Lo and behold, I go to start it up and it sounds fine for about 5 seconds, then bogs down and dies. Now I've replaced plugs on smaller engines quite often and when one of the cylinders is misfiring, it's very obvious. Maybe its' the difference between a car engine and some of the smaller ones I've worked on or maybe even the fuel injection... but I don't know what the problem is. ack, help!! Eric

Re: Help, I killed it!
Figured it out. The idle control vaccum hose was disconnected from the primary air intake. Was killing the idle speed to zero. :-P
