So I was looking through some old pictures from my Ex Subaru and noticed that the Idle RPM was over a 1000 on it. around 1200 in park, and 900+ in gear. Is this the difference between the import waking up and going up to 30 mph from 0 compared to the V8 which idles around 500 and takes more time to jump and also falls down so low that it just barely turns over.
I never found in my Subaru that is was never going to stall it was always ready to go and I never thought about it stalling. My Marauder makes me wonder at every light, and since it has stalled a couple times on me even more so. Yes past 30 mph My marauder will trash any subaru, except maybe a STi. It is just that getting to 30 mph it seems that Subaru has reliablity in their drivers mind, while Ford has us wondering is it going to die in the intersection?
Thoughts about this?
